Shafaqna English– On Thursday(30 Jul 2026), Microsoft’s market capitalization surged by nearly $450 billion, marking the largest single-day valuation increase ever recorded for any publicly traded company.
This historic jump came after the software giant issued a cloud-growth forecast that exceeded Wall Street’s expectations and assured investors of sustained cash flow generation throughout its upcoming fiscal year.
Microsoft’s share price ended the day more than 15% higher, elevating the company’s market capitalization to $3.35 trillion. This achievement eclipsed the prior record for the largest single-day market value gain, which was held by Nvidia at $441 billion from April 9, 2025, as reported by LSEG.
