Nvidia is the world’s most valuable company, with a market capitalization of $4.5 trillion. Meanwhile, Palantir Technologies is worth $400 billion. That brings their collective valuations to $4.9 trillion. I think Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL) (NASDAQ: GOOG) can top that figure by 2028. Here’s what that implies for shareholders:
- Amazon is worth $2.6 trillion. The stock must add about 92% for the company’s market value to hit $5 trillion. Reaching that level by the end of 2028 implies annual returns of 24% over the next three years.
- Alphabet is worth $3.9 trillion. The stock must add about 28% for the company’s market value to hit $5 trillion. Reaching that level by the end of 2028 implies annual returns of 9% over the next three years.
Here’s what investors should know about Amazon and Alphabet.
