According to a recent analysis by BestBrokers, Meta Platforms (META.US) is poised to become the next company to reach a $4 trillion valuation, following the historic milestones already achieved by Nvidia (NVDA.US) and Microsoft (MSFT.US). Paul Hoffman, a data analyst at the investment research platform BestBrokers, predicts that this social media and metaverse giant (current market cap approx. $1.88 trillion) will break the $4 trillion mark by February 2027.

Hoffman stated, "Meta's aggressive positioning in AI-driven tools and immersive metaverse experiences has reignited investor enthusiasm in 2025."

Meta's strong recovery comes after years of strategic adjustments, with its powerful advertising business continuing to provide significant financial momentum despite regulatory challenges.

In this valuation race, semiconductor giant Broadcom (AVGO.US) follows closely behind. BestBrokers' analysis shows that the company could reach the $4 trillion level around May 2027.

Hoffman said, "Broadcom plays a crucial role in advancing AI chip and data center technology, which is driving the company's rapid growth." He also noted that the company's journey from obscurity to tech giant has captured Wall Street's attention.

Other tech giants are also set to join this elite $4 trillion market cap club, though it will take them longer. Amazon (AMZN.US), with a current market cap of approx. $2.29 trillion, and TSMC (TSM.US), with a market cap of approx. $1.22 trillion, are both projected to reach this milestone in 2028.

Meanwhile, the growth trajectories of Google's parent company Alphabet (GOOGL.US) and Apple (AAPL.US) are expected to be more moderate due to evolving market dynamics and increased competition. The analysis forecasts their market caps will reach $4 trillion in August 2029 and January 2031, respectively.

The competition to join the "trillion-dollar market cap club" is also intense, with three major companies expected to reach this milestone within the next year. JPMorgan Chase (JPM.US), with a market cap of approx. $795 billion, and Walmart (WMT.US), with a market cap of approx. $785 billion, are neck and neck in a tight race. Over the past three years, they have achieved growth rates of 33% and nearly 30%, respectively, driven by digital transformation.

The research report stated that Oracle Corp.'s (ORCL.US) market cap is also climbing rapidly, with a 53% increase over three years, positioning it to break the $1 trillion barrier within a year.

Finally, Hoffman noted that disruptive tech companies Netflix (NFLX.US) and Palantir (PLTR.US) have emerged as dark horses in the valuation competition. Their market caps grew by 84.78% and 81.69% respectively during the 2024-2025 period alone.

In the case of Palantir (PLTR), according to BestBrokers, its three-year growth trend suggested it would take about three and a half years to reach a $1 trillion market cap, but its latest annual growth rate has significantly shortened this expectation to just one year and seven months.

Hoffman stated, "As 2025 unfolds, the race to a $4 trillion market cap is not just about the number; it reflects how innovation, strategy, and investor sentiment converge to reshape the global economic landscape. Meta and Broadcom are changing expectations, and the entire industry is watching closely to see who will hit the next milestone first."
