AI wave sweeps chip maker Nvidia into the trillion dollar club

Nvidia now joins Google-owner Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, and Microsoft with trillion-dollar valuations

Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang made big bets on artificial intelligence years before anyone else was taking it seriously.

A rally driven on the potential for artificial intelligence is driving the shares in some of the world’s largest technology companies, with chip makers joining in the rally     

The artificial-intelligence hype continued to fuel appetite for tech shares, with Nvidia shares surging by almost 4% and becoming the world’s first chipmaker with a $1trn market capitalisation after announcing several AI-related products over the weekend.
