I was thinking about market cap growth of the large company seems to be singificantly higher than average inflation over the last two decades

|Year|Leader|Market cap|
|:-|:-|:-|
|2006|Exxon Mobil|$0.447T|
|2011|Exxon Mobil|$0.406T|
|2016|Apple|$0.609T|
|2021|Apple|$2.902T|
|2024|Apple|$3.766T|
|2025|NVIDIA|$4.533T|
|2026|NVIDIA|$5.146T|

U.S. CPI inflation of about 2.5% CAGR. In real inflation-adjusted terms, the “largest company” got about 7× bigger.

The recent take off of Apple and Nvidia actually creates more of less of a cubic trajactory of market cap growth, and a simple model can give the following prediction if growth trajectory doesn't slow down.

|Year|Cubic predicted largest-company market cap|
|:-|:-|
|2030|\~$9.1T|
|2040|\~$26.9T|
|2050|\~$59.7T|
|2058|\~$99.8T|
|2060|\~$112.0T|
|2070|\~$188.2T|
|2080|\~$293.0T|

Anyways, a simple fun thought experiment for everyone!
