"Industry analysts are projecting Nvidia's revenue for that period will total $66.1 billion, a 68% increase from the previous year, while its profit is being forecast to rise at an even more robust pace of more than 70%, according to FactSet Research."
"After Nvidia delivered a stellar performance that far exceeded analyst forecasts in its last quarterly report and CEO Jensen Huang hailed 'off the charts' demand for the company's latest AI processors, its stock price still fell by 3% during the next day's trading."
"The fervor escalated another notch during the past month as four companies leading the AI charge - Amazon, Microsoft, Google parent Alphabet and Facebook parent Meta Platforms - collectively made commitments to spend about $650 billion this year ramping up their AI computing power."
"The phenomenal growth transformed Nvidia from an under-the-radar chipmaker valued at less than $400 billion at the end of 2022 to an AI bellwether now valued at nearly $4.7 trillion."
Nvidia, the dominant AI chipmaker, reports quarterly results with analysts projecting 68% revenue growth to $66.1 billion and over 70% profit growth. Despite consistently exceeding forecasts, investor skepticism persists about whether AI will deliver on its promises. Major tech companies—Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Meta—committed approximately $650 billion in 2024 for AI infrastructure, with significant portions funding Nvidia chip purchases. Nvidia's valuation has surged from under $400 billion in late 2022 to nearly $4.7 trillion, reflecting the company's transformation into an AI market bellwether. However, even stellar earnings haven't guaranteed stock price gains, as investors remain cautious about AI's long-term viability.
