Nvidia is out, leaving Apple as the sole member of the $3 trillion club.

Nvidia reported results on Wednesday that topped analysts’ estimates across the board, with revenue jumping 78% from a year earlier to $39.33 billion. The company’s data center revenue, which includes its market-leading graphics processors for AI workloads, soared 93% on an annual basis to nearly $36 billion.
