Alphabet and NVIDIA both reported strong earnings, but which is America's most profitable company depends on the profit measure used. Alphabet leads in reported net income, boosted by large paper gains from its SpaceX stake, showing $244.1 billion over the last year. However, NVIDIA leads in operating income, a metric that better reflects core business performance, with $197.6 billion compared to Alphabet's $147.6 billion. The difference highlights how paper gains from private investments can skew profit figures, making NVIDIA the leader in operational profitability while Alphabet shows higher headline profits largely due to equity revaluations.
