Competition from the Chinese giant, Meituan, and regulatory fines for poor employment practices in the cutthroat world of moped and cycle delivery weighed on share price performance.

Asked point blank by Quick whether high-level AI deals were circular, with the CEO-soothing caveat that "it doesn't look like that's what [Amazon] are involved in," per Quick, Jassy said it's all about both sides seeing an opportunity to make money.

Huang said in an interview on CNBC's "Mad Money" on Tuesday that there was "no drama" between Nvidia and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, pushing back against recent chatter of tension in the relationship between the two companies. "The first deal is on," the Nvidia CEO said, referring to the company's September deal with OpenAI, under which the company said it planned to invest up to $100 billion in the AI startup. "And then there's, of course, an IPO in the future," he added. "We love to be participating in that as well," he added.
