NVDA surged 3.28% today pushing its market capitalization over $3.3 trillion after a month of steady inflows. Microsoft currently trades sideways with 0.14% outflows in the last 24 hours as its market cap hovers around $3.327 trillion. Apple sits in third with a market cap of $3.279 trillion, a 1% decline today. 

Nvidia trades at $135.24 after a recent stock split leading to more bullish traction. The company stock surged 27% from the announcement on May 22 to the eventual split on June 7. This year, Nvidia has marked soaring gains posting better-than-expected Q1 2024 earnings with projected growth this year. The asset is up 174.9% year-to-date (YTD), and 52.22% in the past three months. 

The last 30 days have been bullish for Nvidia in the market after recording sustained inflows. The asset is up 42.66% this month and hit a $3 trillion market cap along the way joining the ranks of Apple and Microsoft. Its performance is linked to the demand for AI solutions, high-powered computing, and Q1 results. Nvidia’s Data Center surged to $22 billion marking a 427% spike from the previous year.

Will AI Coins Rally? 

AI coins experience a surge in price after bullish performances from Nvidia or other related companies as seen hours after its Q1 results. At press time, AI coins are down 17.6% today with a $25.4 billion market capitalization. This sharp decline follows wider crypto assets which have recorded several double-digit outflows. AI coins might notch a rally if market sentiments flip or assets record bullish inflows post-Nvidia traction.
