The US tech giant passed the mark briefly on Thursday, before its share price fell back.
It makes the company one of only three firms to have touched the $1tn mark, the others being Apple and Amazon.
Microsoft’s stock has climbed by about a third in the past year, helped by the growth of its cloud business.
