Investors’ latest jitters are also said to be linked to the company’s quarterly forecast that failed to meet analysts’ lofty expectations. Despite steady growth and profit, Nvidia’s quarterly forecast failed to meet expectations of investors even as second quarter revenue and profit topped estimates. “Those earnings last week were fine; they exceeded expectations,” told Steve Sosnick, market strategist at Interactive Brokers, to Reuters. “But the magnitude of the beats is shrinking quarter by quarter and that’s not lost on investors.”
The selloff extended to Wall Street’s chip index, which dropped 7% as investor optimism about AI softened.
The broader chip sector has also experienced a downturn, with the Wall Street chip index dropping 7%. Investor optimism about the AI boom has been tempered by concerns about delayed returns on significant investments. Nvidia’s planned investment in OpenAI, valued at over $100 billion, further highlights the challenges and uncertainties in the AI market.
The recent selloff in chip stocks, including Nvidia, reflects growing investor skepticism about the immediate benefits of the AI boom. As regulatory scrutiny intensifies and the market grapples with the long-term implications of AI, Nvidia’s future remains uncertain.
