Top 20 in US Stock Trading Volume: NVIDIA Plans to Produce $500 Billion Worth of AI Equipment in the US

On Monday, NVIDIA, which ranked first in US stock market transaction volume, closed down 0.20%, with a transaction volume of $28.999 billion. It was reported on Monday that in response to Trump's call for the return of manufacturing, NVIDIA plans to produce $500 billion worth of AI equipment in the US.

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang stated in a statement on Monday: "Increasing our manufacturing capabilities in the United States helps us better meet the astonishing and growing demand for AI chips and supercomputers, strengthen the supply chain, and enhance its resilience."

NVIDIA said that the figure of $500 billion refers to the total value of all goods that the company expects to sell to the artificial intelligence supply chain. This amount largely reflects the commitment of major cloud computing companies to build and upgrade data centers and equip them with the latest equipment.

Jensen Huang of NVIDIA also said that this will mark the first time that an artificial intelligence supercomputer is produced in the United States, and President Trump highly praised this on Monday.

Tesla ranked second, closing up 0.02%, with a transaction volume of $24.999 billion. Tesla CEO Elon Musk posted on Monday: "Soon, there will be a universal and pure artificial intelligence solution for achieving full self-driving. All it takes is a camera and Tesla's artificial intelligence chip equipped with Tesla's artificial intelligence software."

Subsequently, Musk reposted a post about Grok-3 Mini and said: "Soon, artificial intelligence will far surpass the best humans in terms of reasoning ability."

Regarding US President Trump's post on social media: "The best definition of intelligence is the ability to predict the future!", Musk reposted a screenshot and responded: "To be honest, I expected this a long time ago."

Apple ranked third, closing up 2.21%, with a transaction volume of $20.731 billion. It is reported that Apple will analyze the data on users' devices to improve its artificial intelligence (AI) platform, while ensuring that user data remains on the device and is not directly used to train AI models.

This new method will help Apple catch up with its AI competitors by using actual emails to check synthetic data and improve text-related functions in its Apple Intelligence platform.

The company will launch a new system in the upcoming beta versions of iOS, iPadOS 18.5, and macOS 15.5, and will also introduce a privacy-centered approach to improve other functions of Apple Intelligence.

Palantir ranked fourth, closing up 4.60%, with a transaction volume of $11.451 billion. Palantir and the NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCI Agency) have completed the procurement of the NATO version of the Palantir Maven Intelligence System (MSS NATO), and will deploy this intelligence system of Palantir to the NATO Allied Command Operations (ACO), which will use artificial intelligence applications to enhance its combat capabilities.

Meta Platforms ranked sixth, closing down 2.22%, with a transaction volume of $7.551 billion. The US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has finally reached the day of going to court with Meta Platforms, accusing the company of illegally monopolizing the social media market after acquiring Instagram and WhatsApp more than a decade ago, and therefore it must be split up. This case that has been brewing for many years opened in Washington on Monday presided over by Chief Judge James Boasberg.

The FTC accuses Mark Zuckerberg's company of illegally building a "social network monopoly" through "anti-competitive behavior" over the years and must be split up. If the judge supports the FTC's claim, Meta may be forced to sell Instagram and WhatsApp for separation, and other tech giants may also be alerted by this.

Analysts say that Meta's current market value of $1.3 trillion is precisely based on Instagram's advertising revenue. If it is forced to split, its market value is likely to experience a cliff-like decline, and the estimated evaporation of value may reach hundreds of billions of dollars.

Strategy ranked eighth, closing up 3.82%, with a transaction volume of $4.798 billion. Media reports on Monday said that "Bitcoin major holder" Strategy made another large-scale purchase of Bitcoin last week.

It is reported that the company purchased 3,459 bitcoins with cash of $285.8 million (including handling fees) from April 7 to April 13, 2025, at an average purchase price of $82,618 per bitcoin. As of April 13, 2025, the company and its subsidiaries held a total of 531,644 bitcoins, with a total purchase cost of $35.92 billion (including handling fees), and an average purchase price of $67,556 per bitcoin.

Alibaba ranked 11th, closing up 5.79%, with a transaction volume of $3.694 billion. Alibaba spent approximately $19.9911 million to repurchase 1.524 million shares on April 11.

UnitedHealth Group ranked 17th, closing down 2.07%, with a transaction volume of $2.779 billion. According to media reports, on April 14 local time, an illegal intruder suddenly broke into the UnitedHealth Group campus in Minnetonka, Minnesota, in the United States.

There is currently no threat to the public. The police said that they are closely monitoring the development of the situation.
