Nvidia has reached a significant milestone by becoming worth more than the GDP of all but 11 countries, with a market capitalization of $1.97 trillion. The company's impressive performance is highlighted by a 168% total return from 2022 to 2024, outperforming other tech giants and the S&P 500. This surge in value is attributed to Nvidia's dominance in the AI sector, becoming a crucial chip supplier amidst the cooling of crypto and PC graphics card markets. The company's quarterly revenue has seen a remarkable increase, from $1 billion ten years ago to $22 billion today, a 265% year-over-year growth. Nvidia's data center business has particularly thrived, with a 409% revenue jump contributing to its fourth-quarter results exceeding expectations. The tech giant's success has also spurred activity in the options market, with traders spending over $20 billion on Nvidia options in the past week, more than the combined total for other major stocks. This fervor for Nvidia is part of a broader trend of investors seeking exposure to AI-related investments.
