2 Stocks That’ll Be Worth More Than Apple 10 Years From Now

In the world of finance, 10 years is the blink of an eye. Want proof? Take a close look at the table below:

Company

2014 Market Cap (in billions)

2024 Market Cap (in billions)

IBM

$182

$178

Nvidia

$10

$2,965

In August 2014, IBM’s market cap was roughly 18 times larger than Nvidia’s (NASDAQ: NVDA). But oh, how the tables have turned. Today, Nvidia boasts a market cap of about $3 trillion — roughly 17 times larger than IBM.

So, looking ahead to the next 10 years, what are the companies that could surpass Apple’s enormous market cap? Here are two that could pull it off.

If a company is going to surpass Apple over the next decade, it will need a gigantic market cap. Even assuming Apple’s market cap holds steady, that would mean a company would need to reach a

of $3.4 trillion to catch Apple.

That’s a very tall order, and there are only so many companies that could do it.

(NASDAQ: MSFT) is one of them.

has many pathways to success. Apple, on the other hand, has traditionally benefited from its excellent hardware innovation. And while Apple services and AI could boost the company’s revenue, flagging iPhone sales could present a real challenge to Apple over the next decade.

In my book, that means an advantage for

. Its sky-high valuation makes it vulnerable to a ****** correction if the company’s sales show any signs of slowing. That said, this article is about what could happen over the next 10 years. And in that case, I think Nvidia is well positioned to surpass Apple.

That’s because Nvidia’s core business — making the graphics processing units (GPUs) that will power cutting-edge AI systems for the next decade — is on a long-term growth trajectory that Apple simply can’t match.

Sales of Apple’s signature product — the iPhone — grew every year between 2007 and 2015, but they’ve been flat since then.

Nvidia, on the other hand, is still growing. Over the last two years, the company has tripled its revenue as GPUs have sold like hotcakes. That growth isn’t likely to slow in the next few years. Most analysts expect Nvidia’s sales to double again to around $160 billion by 2026.

Story continues

Sure, there are likely to be some bumps in the road as the competitors take some market share from Nvidia in the red-hot AI chips market. But even if Nvidia’s sales growth slows, it could easily close the $500 billion market cap difference between it and Apple over the next decade.
