The World’s Most Valuable Companies Q3 2025

Titans of industry

Here are the ten companies with the most capital.

1. Nvidia (NVDA)
   The semiconductor giant is pretty much taking on responsibility for the world’s entire future by building essential AI infrastructure, and the GPUs for us mere mortals to interact with it through. Its $4.3 trillion put it in first place.

2. Microsoft (MSFT)
   The Bill Gates-started company’s software and cloud solutions have earned it $3.7 trillion.

3. Apple (AAPL)
   The multinational firm that first introduced the world to the smartphone and antivirus-free computers continues very strong with its own highly proprietary hardware/software products, and is also cornering a hefty chunk of the services market. $3.6 trillion.

4. Alphabet (GOOGL)
   With over 5 billion users, Google controls more than 90% of the global search engine market. As if that weren’t enough, it also owns Gmail, YouTube, and the whole Google Cloud package. $2.8 trillion.

5. Amazon (AMZN)
   The household name in e-commerce, and a rising star of cloud computing, the Italophile Jeff Bezos’s company is worth $2.5 trillion.

6. Meta Platforms (META)
   You take Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, and invest the revenue from them in VR and the metaverse - that’s the kind of visionary business Mark Zuckerberg’s college dorm room invention has garnered for over 20 years. $1.9 trillion.

7. Saudi Aramco (2222.SR)
   Saudi Arabia’s state oil corporation is the world’s largest energy heave-hitter with $1.5 trillion.

8. Broadcom (AVGO)
   This leading producer of wireless comm infrastructure is worth $1.4 trillion.

9. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM)
   The vast majority of the world’s computing is done on chips and semiconductors produced here. $1.3 trillion.

10. Tesla (TSLA) or Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A)
    Imagine a cage fight between Elon Musk and Warren Buffett for tenth place in this rating. $1.1 trillion.

The largest companies by revenue

Another way the value of a company is measured is by looking at its revenues. This ranking is usually occupied by gigantic publicly traded companies and state corporations.

Right now, the highest revenue in the world belongs to the retail and e-commerce behemoth Walmart with $648.1 billion.

Amazon, and China’s state electrical company, are in second and third places with $574.8 billion and $545.9 billion, respectively.
