We present the nine companies valued at one trillion dollars or more trading on United States stock exchanges. These are the most valuable firms in the world. It is an extremely exclusive club. All the trillion dollar stocks come from the Technology sector with the exception of Berkshire Hathaway.
Trillion Dollar Companies
1. Nvidia

The semiconductor firm Nvidia (NVDA) is now number one on this list. It started as a graphics chip company but has established leadership in chipsets for AI, cryptocurrency mining, and data centers. The market capitalization soared between 2024 and the first half 2025, reaching more than $4 trillion. Nvidia pays a small dividend.
2. Microsoft

Microsoft (MSFT) is the No. 2 company on this list, with a market value of $3.76 trillion. It sells tablets, Xbox, Office, and enterprise software and owns websites like LinkedIn. The company has moved aggressively into AI with a significant investment in ChatGPT from OpenAI. Hence, its market capitalization has risen on investor optimism.
3. Apple

Apple (AAPL) is the third largest company in the world, ranked by market capitalization. The company is worth an astonishing $3.12 trillion, about $1 trillion less than Nvidia, which is No. 1. However, Apple was the first American company to attain a trillion dollars in August 2018. The firm continues moving from strength to strength; it recently released its first 3D camera, the Apple Vision Pro. However, investors are afraid the firm is behind in AI.
4. Amazon

The online retailer Amazoninc.com (AMZN) is No. 4 on this list. Amazon’s enormous reach has made it the world’s largest retailer. Additionally, it owns Whole Foods and is a market leader in cloud services. The company is worth $2.4 trillion, increasing the combined net worth of MacKenzie Scott and Jeff Bezos into the hundreds of billions. However, Amazon does not pay a dividend.
5. Alphabet (Google)
Almost everyone knows about Google because it controls over 90% of all internet searches. The search engine is owned by Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL). The firm is pervasive on the internet, owning YouTube, the Chrome browser, the Android operating system, and Pixel phones. The firm is focused on AI and Waymo now. As a result, Alphabet has grown to $2.21 trillion. Google started to pay a dividend in 2024.
6. Meta Platforms (Facebook)

Meta Platforms (META) is the sixth company with a valuation in excess of $1 trillion. Meta owns Facebook, Instagram, and What’s App. The company’s share price declined before rising again and hitting new highs. The firm currently has a market capitalization of $1.79 trillion. As the market leader in social media, I believe it should continue to do well. The company announced a dividend in 2024.
7. Broadcom
Broadcom (AVGO) is a recent addition to this list, having crossed the $1 trillion mark in December 2024. It is valued at $1.32 trillion. The firm designs and manufactures semiconductors and infrastructure products for data centers, networking, wireless, and storage markets. It also sells infrastructure software. The company was spun out of Hewlett-Packard in 1999.
8. TSMC
TSMC, which is the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM), is the only non-American company on this list. However, the firm has significant operations in the United States and is closely linked to many other American technology companies. TSMC is a semiconductor foundry that designs and manufactures chips for different companies. This is a lucrative business. As a result, TSMC has a market capitalization of $1.23 trillion.
9. Berkshire Hathaway
Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A, BRK.B) is the only non-technology company on this list. It is the corporation run by Warren Buffett until recently. Charlie Munger was also a driver of the firm’s growth. He passed away in late 2023. Berkshire Hathaway is a conglomerate. It owns dozens of subsidiaries, including Geico, See’s Candies, Dairy Queen, NetJets, Shaw Industries, McLane Company, BNSF, Forest River, Lubrizol, Duracell, Precision Castparts, and Pilot Flying J, among others. The firm also owns a significant percentage of companies, including Coca-Cola, American Express, Apple, and Occidental Petroleum, among others. Berkshire Hathaway is valued at $1.01 trillion.
The Bottom Line About The List of Trillion Dollar Companies
It’s a rarified club. Besides these six companies, only Tesla has surpassed a trillion dollar valuation. However, its stock price has declined significantly, lowering its valuation.
American companies dominate the list of trillion dollar equities. An exception is Saudi Aramco, which is worth $1.97 trillion. However, it is not traded on U.S. exchanges. Lastly, as a historical note, PetroChina was the first company to cross the $1 trillion mark when the Shanghai Stock Exchange opened. However, the oil company only held that level for a brief time.
Looking ahead, JPMorgan Chase, Walmart, and Eli Lilly are the closest to reaching a $1 trillion valuation. In our opinion, JPMorgan Chase company will do so next.
Disclosure: Long AAPL and MSFT.
