Apple Reclaims Largest Company Status as Nvidia Faces Leadership Transition and Market Sell-off
Apple (AAPL) has regained its position as the world's largest company with a $5.2 trillion market cap, overtaking Nvidia (NVDA) following a significant stock decline. Nvidia's valuation dropped approximately 30% from its all-time high after CEO Jensen Huang announced his resignation amid personal controversies and allegations involving a Chinese spy. Despite the leadership vacuum at Nvidia, analysts suggest the sell-off may be an overreaction, noting that the company maintains strong talent and higher growth expectations. While Apple trades at a premium P/E ratio of 39 compared to Nvidia's 21, Wall Street projects much higher earnings growth for Nvidia (68%) than for Apple (15%) through fiscal 2027-2028.
