Nvidia's Meteoric Rise: The Unstoppable Force Behind AI's Future
4 Aug
Summary
- Nvidia is the world's largest company, rising rapidly
- Nvidia's GPUs are the standard for AI companies
- Nvidia set to benefit from massive data center growth

As of August 4th, 2025, Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) has cemented its position as the world's largest company, rising to this status at an unbelievable pace. However, the company is far from done growing, as it remains one of the primary benefactors of the ongoing artificial intelligence (AI) arms race.
Nvidia's graphics processing units (GPUs) have become the standard computing unit that many AI companies have built their models on. This has been a key driver of the company's success, and there is still several years' worth of strong growth ahead for Nvidia's stock. Investors are advised to consider adding to their existing Nvidia positions in their portfolios.
Looking ahead, the data center industry is expected to see a record year in 2025, with further significant growth projected for 2026. Meta Platforms, one of the AI "hyperscalers," has indicated that it plans to significantly exceed its 2025 capital expenditure range of $66 billion to $72 billion in 2026 as it continues to aggressively pursue opportunities to bring additional capacity online to meet the needs of its AI efforts and business operations. This bodes well for Nvidia and several other companies that are poised to benefit from the trillion-dollar data center market expected by 2028.
