At the beginning of 2024, Nvidia's stock price continued to rise. In about 6 weeks, the market capitalization increased by about 500 billion US dollars, which is almost equivalent to the entire$Tesla (TSLA.US)$The market value of.

Driven by the AI boom, Nvidia's stock price has soared more than 200% last year. So far this year, it has risen another 40%, and the market value increased by 489 billion US dollars to 1.71 trillion US dollars at the close of trading on Monday. This means that Nvidia is likely to surpass$Amazon (AMZN.US)$With Google's parent company Alphabet, it became the third-largest US stock company by market capitalization, after$Microsoft (MSFT.US)$and apple.

In contrast, Musk's Tesla stock price plummeted 27% this year, and its market capitalization shrunk by 214 billion US dollars to 576 billion US dollars.

Second place$Tesla (TSLA.US)$Sales rose 2.23% to US$22.463 billion. More than 5,800 Tesla retail shareholders signed a joint letter in just four days, requesting that the Tesla board support Musk's 2018 salary plan and that the board of directors develop a new compensation plan for Musk.

The compensation plan was declared invalid by a Delaware judge in the US state of Delaware last week. The judge found that the huge options reward program that Tesla granted to Musk in 2018 was unfair.

But Musk has already collected all the rewards, with a total value of more than 55 billion US dollars.

However, Tesla's retail shareholders believe that Musk has achieved the goals set in the compensation plan, so they want to confirm that they will continue to pay the promised salary packages.

Daiwa Securities lowered Tesla's target price from $245 to $195, and downgraded the rating from increased holdings to neutral. Analysts said the consequences of increased attention to governance issues could affect Tesla's tendency to invest and innovate in the long term.

7th place$Apple (AAPL.US)$The closing was up 0.86%, and the transaction was $8.168 billion. Apple's first head-mounted display device, Vision Pro, was officially launched in the US a few days ago, which quickly sparked a boom. Many analysts agree that aside from hardware technology, the most critical problem currently facing Vision Pro is application. Currently, there are still very few native applications for this device. The vast majority of apps are compatible versions of mobile phone or tablet apps, just a flat window suspended in front of the user's eyes.

On the other hand, Vision Pro has only been on sale for a few days, and some examples of dangerous use have already appeared. A man started autonomous driving mode while driving. His hands did not control the steering wheel, but controlled the Vision Pro app. The man was quickly discovered and stopped by the traffic police. In response to these issues, Apple calls on users to use new technology wisely and always put safety first.

5th place$Alibaba (BABA.US)$The closing was 4.82% higher, and the transaction was US$3,021 billion. According to reports, Alibaba Group's B2B e-commerce “1688.com” is about to enter the Korean market, drawing attention from the local e-commerce industry. The industry is already struggling to cope with the competitive pricing policies of Chinese direct procurement platforms such as AliExpress and Temu. 1688.com's potential entry further heightens concerns that domestic companies may face fierce competition from Chinese companies, which may cause Chinese companies to lose more markets.

Industry sources revealed that Alibaba plans to launch a Korean-language service for 1688.com as early as this month, independent of its existing platform AliExpress. It is widely believed in the industry that 1688.com targets wholesalers and sells products at half the normal retail price, which makes its prices more competitive than AliExpress and Temu.
