NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ: NVDA) is the world's largest company by market capitalization on July 31, 2026 (ahead of Apple Inc., NASDAQ: AAPL)

Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 26. July 2026 · Predicted for 31. July 2026 · Based on: Ongoing Event
Probability
77%

Polymarket assigns 77% probability to NVIDIA as the world's largest company by July 31, 2026; Apple follows at 24%. NVIDIA's lead rests on sustained AI chip demand (H100/H200/Blackwell), strong forward guidance, and institutional inflows. NVIDIA's own quarterly result (Q2 FY2027) is not until August 26 — no negative earnings event before the deadline. Apple reports July 30, but overtaking NVIDIA would require a multi-percentage-point surge. Polymarket anchor: 77%.

Data basis for this prediction
  • Polymarket: NVDA 77%, AAPL 24% als größtes Unternehmen per 31.07.2026 (Stand 26.07.2026)
  • NVIDIA Q2 FY2027-Ergebnis erwartet 26. August 2026 – Nvidia IR / EarningsCompass
  • Apple Q3 FY2026-Ergebnis 30. Juli 2026 – Apple IR

Verdict: Hit
NVIDIA war am 31. Juli 2026 tatsächlich das wertvollste Unternehmen der Welt. Apple hatte NVIDIA zwar kurz am 27./28. Juli 2026 überholt (Apple ~4,95 Bio. USD vs. NVIDIA ~4,76 Bio. USD), doch NVIDIA erholte sich und hielt zum offiziellen Stichtag 31. Juli 2026 die Spitzenposition (Marktkapitalisierung ~5,3 Bio. USD vs. Apple ~4,6 Bio. USD). Polymarket löste den Markt mit NVIDIA bei 100% auf – kein Dispute.

Nintendo Switch 2: Cumulative global sales exceed 28 million units by 31 December 2026 (confirmed by Nintendo quarterly report or Bloomberg by 31 January 2027)

The Nintendo Switch 2 launched on June 5, 2025, and by September 2026 had reportedly sold approximately 20–24 million units (industry sources noted it had already surpassed GameCube's lifetime sales of 21.74M). Successful Nintendo consoles typically sell an additional 5–8 million units in the holiday quarter (October–December). With a conservative Q4 of 5 million additional units (from a base of ~23–24 million), the 28-million mark is achievable. No Polymarket quote; Metaculus implies ~52% at this threshold.

Apple officially announces new MacBook Pro models with M5 chip at October 2026 event (market launch by October 31, 2026, confirmed by Apple press release or The Verge by October 31, 2026)

Apple follows its established chip refresh cycle: M4 MacBook Pro announced November 2024 — M5 refresh after 23–24 months in October/November 2026 fits the historical pattern exactly (M1→M2: ~17 months; M2→M3: ~16 months; M3→M4: ~14 months). An existing open Cassandra prediction already expects the iPad Pro with new Apple Silicon by October 31 — MacBook Pro updates typically accompany iPad refreshes at the same event slot. 9to5Mac and Bloomberg reported M5 MacBook Pro leaks for H2 2026. Main risk: Apple could defer MacBook Pro to November (as in 2024), making the October 31 deadline tight.

Samsung officially announces Galaxy AI Smart Glasses (Intelligent Eyewear with integrated AR display) by October 31, 2026 with a concrete market launch date (confirmed by Samsung press release or The Verge by October 31, 2026)

Samsung announced Intelligent Eyewear for 'Fall 2026' at Galaxy Unpacked London (July 2026). On October 11, 2026, Samsung holds its first Asia Unpacked event in Malaysia — the most likely platform for the final announcement. Meta's Meta Connect (September 23) will showcase Ray-Ban smart glasses with a display, putting Samsung under competitive time pressure. The condition 'with a concrete market launch date' is stricter than merely naming the product. No Polymarket market; calibrated at 46% — Samsung hardware launches regularly slip, and a display-integrated product is technically more demanding than a simple smart frame.
