Apple surpassed Nvidia to become the world's most valuable company for the first time since April 2025, with a market cap of $4.95 trillion compared to Nvidia's $4.77 trillion. Nvidia's shares fell 5% due to investor concerns over high AI-related costs, while Apple’s shares rose 1% ahead of its upcoming earnings report.
