Alphabet, the parent company of Google, has reached a market capitalisation of $4 trillion, becoming the fourth company worldwide to hit this milestone, according to Mediafax.
Alphabet shares rose by around 1% on Monday after Apple announced it will use Google’s Gemini artificial intelligence technology as the foundation for its own AI models and the next generation of the Siri assistant, CNBC reported.

Alphabet now joins an exclusive group of companies that have surpassed the $4 trillion mark, alongside Nvidia, Microsoft and Apple. Nvidia and Microsoft crossed the threshold in July 2025, while Apple reached it in October 2025, although Apple’s and Microsoft’s market values later slipped below that level.
Strong Wall Street performance
Alphabet was among the best-performing stocks on Wall Street in 2025. The company’s shares gained 65% last year, marking their strongest annual increase since 2009.
The rally has been supported by Google’s advances in artificial intelligence. In November, the company unveiled its Ironwood AI chip, followed in December by the launch of Gemini 3, which was met with positive feedback from both investors and industry experts.
