Nvidia has surged past Google's parent company, alphabet, and e-commerce behemoth Amazon to claim the coveted third position as the most valuable U.S. Company. Nvidia now boasts a market capitalization of $1.825 trillion, edging out Alphabet's $1.821 trillion and Amazon's $1.776 trillion.

Nvidia beats Alphabet in market cap

In a significant shake-up on Wall Street, Nvidia has emerged as the third most valuable US company, surpassing Google-parent Alphabet. <o:p></o:p>

According to a Reuters report, the dominant AI chipmaker's stock witnessed a 2.46 per cent surge, securing a market value of $1.825 trillion, just ahead of Alphabet's $1.821 trillion, marking a pivotal moment in the dynamic tech industry.<o:p></o:p>

Nvidia's ascent to the third position comes on the heels of overtaking Amazon's market capitalisation, illustrating its growing dominance in the technology sector. <o:p></o:p>

The Santa Clara-based company has been a key beneficiary of the technology industry's push to integrate artificial intelligence into products and services, with its stock price rising by 47 per cent this year alone.<o:p></o:p>

The company's control over approximately 80 per cent of the high-end AI chip market has been a major factor in its stock's stellar performance. <o:p></o:p>

Investors have shown a keen interest in Nvidia's stock, especially after it concluded a session with a market capitalisation higher than Amazon's for the first time in two decades. <o:p></o:p>

However, with success comes challenges, as customers face shortages of Nvidia's top-of-the-line components, and AI developers grapple with lengthy waiting lists to access its processors through cloud-computing providers.<o:p></o:p>

Nvidia's stock surge reflects the broader trend in technology-related companies reaching record highs fuelled by optimism surrounding artificial intelligence. <o:p></o:p>

Other industry giants, such as Microsoft and Meta Platforms, have also rallied to unprecedented levels.<o:p></o:p>

Investors and analysts are now eagerly awaiting Nvidia's upcoming quarterly report, scheduled for the next Wednesday, which is poised to be one of the most closely watched of the week on Wall Street. <o:p></o:p>

Analysts anticipate another strong quarter and positive outlook, emphasising that any deviation from these expectations could potentially dampen the current AI rally on Wall Street. <o:p></o:p>

Jake Dollarhide, CEO of Longbow Asset Management, warned, "If Nvidia has one bad quarterly report, if they don’t overly-exceed investors’ expectations, this thing could sell off 20 or 30 percent in one after-hours session."<o:p></o:p>

Susquehanna analyst Christopher Rolland expressed optimism regarding Nvidia's future, increasing the price target for the company's stock to $850 from $625. <o:p></o:p>

Rolland cited expectations of robust quarterly results and guidance as the basis for the upward revision. As of now, Nvidia shares are trading at $739.<o:p></o:p>

In the broader context of the tech industry's valuation, Microsoft currently leads the pack after overtaking Apple to become the world's most valuable company with a market value exceeding $3 trillion. <o:p></o:p>

Notably, Saudi Aramco retains its position as the world's third most valuable publicly-listed company.<o:p></o:p>

Analysts predict Nvidia's January fiscal quarter revenue to more than triple to $20.37 billion, primarily driven by the soaring demand for its top-tier AI chips. <o:p></o:p>

Adjusted net profit is expected to surge over 400 per cent, reaching $11.38 billion. <o:p></o:p>

While Nvidia's current price-to-earnings ratio stands at around 34, up from 24 in early January, it reflects a significant decline from the over 50 ratio observed a year ago.<o:p></o:p>

WION Business Wrap | US dollar’s 3-month high, Nvidia’s rising market value and more

The tech landscape is witnessing multiple shifts in 2024. January saw Microsoft overtaking Apple to become world’s most valuable company. Now chipmaker Nvidia briefly outpaced e-commerce giant Amazon in market capitalisation.

Nvidia briefly surpasses Amazon in market capitalisation

Leading chip maker Nvidia is now aiming to capture a growing segment. We are talking about custom AI chips, where rivals Broadcom & Marvell dominate. The report takes a deep dive into nvidia's plans for the 30 billion dollar segment.

Report: Nvidia building new business catering to cloud computing

The company is on the verge of becoming more valuable than amazon for the first time since 2002. A 40% surge in 2024 has elevated Nvidia's market cap to 1.715 trillion dollars. That's only about 3% below amazon's 1.767 trillion dollar value.

Nvidia on the verge of becoming more valuable than amazon

<o:p></o:p>Nvidia, the AI chipmaker, is on the verge of surpassing Amazon in market value, fuelled by Wall Street's fervour for artificial intelligence, as reported by Reuters.<o:p></o:p>

With a 40 per cent surge in 2024, Nvidia's market capitalisation stands at $1.715 trillion, just 3 per cent short of Amazon's $1.767 trillion. <o:p></o:p>

Additionally, it is trailing closely behind Alphabet, Google's parent company, which boasts a $1.812 trillion valuation. <o:p></o:p>

The soaring trajectory of Nvidia's shares, rising 1.8 per cent to $694.48 after an optimistic report from Morgan Stanley, positions the AI giant as a formidable player in the market.<o:p></o:p>

Morgan Stanley's recent report has contributed to the positive sentiment surrounding Nvidia. <o:p></o:p>

Analyst Joseph Moore, in a client note, emphasised the surging demand for AI, prompting the firm to raise Nvidia's price target from $603 to $750. <o:p></o:p>

Nvidia, having tripled its stock value in 2023, now holds the fifth position among the most valuable companies in the US stock market. <o:p></o:p>

The company is gearing up to report its quarterly results on February 21, maintaining the spotlight on its robust performance.<o:p></o:p>

Nvidia's prominence in the AI landscape has been propelled by tech giants like Meta Platforms and others integrating its graphics processors into their products and services. <o:p></o:p>

The company has emerged as a top beneficiary in the race to infuse AI capabilities across various industries. <o:p></o:p>

Cloud-computing providers offering Nvidia's processors are witnessing high demand, leading to months-long waiting lists for AI developers. <o:p></o:p>

Morgan Stanley's Moore pointed out that while these wait times are gradually decreasing, the sustained demand underscores Nvidia's pivotal role in the AI ecosystem.<o:p></o:p>

This impending milestone for Nvidia marks the first time in two decades that it is on the verge of surpassing Amazon in market value. <o:p></o:p>

The last instance was in 2002 when both companies were valued under $6 billion. <o:p></o:p>

Microsoft's recent achievement in becoming the world's most valuable company, surpassing Apple, adds to the dynamic landscape of tech leaders vying for the top spots. <o:p></o:p>

While Nvidia's surge in market value is noteworthy, Saudi Aramco remains the world's third most valuable publicly listed company, with a market capitalisation of $2 trillion. <o:p></o:p>

However, it's essential to note that over 90 per cent of Saudi Aramco is closely held by the Saudi Arabian government, and less than 2 per cent of its shares are available for trading by investors. <o:p></o:p>

Abercrombie's 300% surge in 2023 beats sizzling-hot Nvidia

US chip making giant nvidia has decided to comply with US curbs on chips exports to China. A Reuters report suggests that the chip maker is making chips that comply with the curbs announced earlier this year.

Nvidia working on chips that comply with export curbs: Reports | World Business Watch

Chip making giant Nvidia released its third-quarter earnings on Tuesday, once again surpassing Wall Street expectations as the demand for its chips fuelled by the artificial intelligence boom continues to surge. &nbsp;

The reported adjusted earnings per share of $4.02 and revenue of $18.12 billion exceeded analysts' expectations, with analysts anticipating $3.36 earnings per share on $16.1 billion in revenue. The robust Q3 report card showed a 34 per cent increase in revenue from the previous quarter and a whopping 206 per cent surge compared to the same period last year.

The company's guidance for the current quarter also outpaced estimates, with a projected revenue of $20 billion, plus or minus 2 per cent, while analysts were foreseeing a fourth-quarter guidance of $17.8 billion. &nbsp;

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang attributed the growth to the industry's transition towards accelerated computing and generative AI large language models, with consumer internet companies and global cloud service providers leading the way.

Falling stocks

Despite these achievements, Nvidia's stock saw a 3 per cent decline on Wednesday, a reaction potentially tied to the company's acknowledgement of new restrictions on chip exports to China impacting its results. &nbsp;

Colette Kress, Nvidia's CFO, noted that sales to China and other affected destinations, representing about 20-25 per cent of Data Centre revenue, would decline significantly in Q4 of fiscal 2024 due to licensing requirements. However, Kress expressed confidence in mitigating this decline through strong growth in other regions.

Kress expanded on the impact of export restrictions, stating that the fourth-quarter guidance could have been higher without the restrictions. Yet, there's a possibility Nvidia might collaborate with the US government to launch new products. She acknowledged the uncertainty surrounding the magnitude and duration of the impact on their China business.

Nvidia soars beyond Wall Street estimates in Q3, but China concerns loom

Nvidia, the frontrunner in artificial intelligence chips, is set to announce another robust revenue forecast, riding on the success of its AI-powered technologies on Tuesday. However, all eyes are on the potential impact of the expanding U.S. restrictions on the sale of its high-end chips to China, which has become a major concern for investors.

According to Reuters, the company, which has seen a meteoric rise in its stock value, is facing scrutiny amid worries that the recent bans on specific chip sales to China could disrupt its market presence in the country, which accounts for over one-fifth of its revenue.

"There is an underlying assumption that Nvidia has total market dominance ... so anything that affects that perception ... is going to temper enthusiasm," Reuters cited Kyle Rodda, an analyst at Capital.com.

The Biden administration's recent ban on the sale of H800 and A800 chips to China, Nvidia's third-largest market, has stirred concerns about the company's outlook. Nvidia downplayed the immediate effects of the restrictions but saw a dip in its stock value following reports that up to $5 billion in Chinese orders might be at risk.

Navigating China's Chip Challenges: Nvidia's strategies unveiled

Before the latest export curbs, Nvidia's H800 chip was a standout performer in the Chinese market, outpacing competitors due to its superior performance. In response to the restrictions, Nvidia has developed three new chips tailored for the Chinese market.

Analysts suggest that while these chips may experience a reduction in overall performance due to controls imposed by the U.S., they could still find traction among Chinese customers while remaining acceptable to U.S. regulators.

Stacy Rasgon, an analyst at Bernstein, told Reuters about the challenge Nvidia faces: “While the prior workarounds required only small changes to the memory bandwidth of the parts, this time around, the nature of the controls forces a sharp reduction in overall performance."

Despite these hurdles, Rasgon believes that the chips may still be attractive to the Chinese market, potentially mitigating the impact of the export curbs.

AI giant's growth trajectory continues amidst headwinds from China

Nvidia is expected to reveal a staggering 173 per cent surge in revenue for the third quarter, according to analysts polled by LSEG. Wall Street projections anticipate a further 195 per cent increase in revenue for the current quarter. Despite concerns about the impact of Chinese restrictions, Nvidia's stock trades at 31 times its 12-month forward earnings estimates, still below the price-to-earnings ratio of rival AMD.

The company's commitment to innovation is evident in the introduction of the H200, a top-of-the-line chip for AI applications. With higher bandwidth memory, the H200 aims to maintain Nvidia's competitive edge over AMD, which is gearing up to release its MI300 chip.

Major cloud service providers, including Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, will offer access to H200 chips. Additionally, specialty AI cloud providers CoreWeave, Lambda, and Vultr are set to join the ranks, marking another strategic move by Nvidia.

However, Morningstar analysts suggest, Nvidia's growth may eventually reduce the material importance of revenue from China.

As we kick off the busy trading week, here's a sneak peek into what could trigger markets this week.

Focus intensifies on the U.S. Federal Reserve, set to release the minutes of its late October meeting a day earlier due to Thanksgiving. Investors eagerly seek insights into the central bank's stance on interest rates, especially with recent signs of inflation cooling adding intrigue to the analysis.

Retail sales during the thanksgiving holiday week

As the holiday season starts, U.S. retailers gear up for Black Friday, marking the beginning of a crucial shopping period. However, this year's backdrop is different, featuring elevated interest rates and inflation above the Fed's 2% target. October's retail sales dip suggests a potential slowdown in consumer demand.

Retail giant Walmart, sheds light on consumer behavior, noting a more prudent approach to spending. Despite caution, the company raises its sales and profit forecast for the year, reflecting a mix of optimism and wariness in the retail landscape.

Nvidia reports its 3rd quarter results

Adding to the mix, major chip maker Nvidia, steps into the earnings spotlight this week. As the final member of the Magnificent Seven megacap companies to report this season, Nvidia's performance will be closely watched given substantial share gains.

Eurozone's purchasing manager index for November

Across the pond, the Eurozone is set to reveal its purchasing manager indexes data for November on Thursday. Economists, however, are cautious, not expecting a significant uptick in activity.

In essence, this week is a delicate balancing act for markets. Investors scrutinize the Fed minutes for clues, retailers brace for a nuanced holiday season, and chip giant Nvidia steps into the earnings arena. The Eurozone's data could offer further insights into the global economic landscape.

Traders' Diary | Cues to watch this week (Nov 20-24)

Nvidia Corp., the world's most valuable chipmaker, is on the verge of completing a 10-day winning streak, marking its longest run of advances since the record-setting performance in December 2016. The Santa Clara-based company has seen a remarkable climb of approximately 20 per cent during this streak, translating to a staggering addition of about $200 billion in market value, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. &nbsp;

This surge occurs amid intense competition as rivals strive to devise alternatives to challenge Nvidia's stronghold in artificial intelligence (AI).&nbsp;

Nvidia's shares have experienced an exceptional rally, surging over 230 per cent this year, solidifying its position as the best-performing component on both the Nasdaq 100 and S&amp;P 500 indexes. The AI-driven frenzy has significantly contributed to this stellar performance, with the latest surge coinciding with a broader rebound in technology stocks. The resurgence in the tech sector is fuelled by optimistic sentiments surrounding the Federal Reserve's indications that interest rates may have reached their peak.&nbsp;

Highlighting Nvidia's commitment to innovation, the company announced the release of its updated chip, the H200, designed to incorporate high-bandwidth memory, known as HBM3e. This enhancement aims to enhance the chip's capacity to handle substantial datasets crucial for AI development and implementation. Blomberg cited Analyst Chris Caso from Wolfe Research, who notes, "NVDA has not refreshed prior datacentre GPUs in the past," emphasising that this update signifies Nvidia's acceleration in response to the growth and performance demands of the AI market.&nbsp;

Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Kunjan Sobhani underscored the significance of Nvidia's swift product-launch pace with the H200 in mid-2024. Sobhani noted that this strategy is poised to "help defend its turf," positioning the new AI processor with high-bandwidth memory as a potential market leader. &nbsp;

Despite facing challenges last month due to new US rules restricting the sale of cutting-edge chips to China, Nvidia has shown resilience and is scheduled to report earnings on November 21.&nbsp;

Nvidia's Spectacular Surge: $200bn added in 10-day winning streak matching 2016 record 

As the preeminent semiconductor manufacturer globally readies itself for the launch of an update to its artificial intelligence engine, shares of Nvidia have ascended for the tenth consecutive trading session. This achievement signifies the lengthiest sequence of consecutive gains since the record-setting surge observed in December 2016.

Nvidia's winning streak nears a record

Shares of Nvidia Corp, a prominent player in the artificial intelligence (AI) industry, tumbled by nearly 5 per cent, reaching a five-month low in the wake of a report that the company may be compelled to cancel advanced chip orders valued at up to $5 billion destined for China.&nbsp;

According to Reuters, the reason behind this potential cancellation is the necessity to comply with new U.S. government restrictions.&nbsp;

Nvidia's stock price plunged to as low as $392.30, representing a 4.7 per cent decline. This marks the lowest level the company's stock has reached since mid-June. The stock, which played a significant role in driving the Nasdaq's gains, has now fallen by nearly 20 per cent from its record high close of $493.55 achieved on August 31.&nbsp;

Nvidia recently received notification that its AI chip orders, set for delivery to major Chinese technology firms in the next year, including giants like Alibaba Group, ByteDance (the parent company of TikTok), and Baidu, are now subject to the most recent export restrictions unveiled by the U.S. Commerce Department.

Tom Plumb, the CEO and lead portfolio manager at Plumb Funds, noted, "The stock is getting oversold," adding that Nvidia had previously indicated that the impact of these restrictions would be more long-term rather than immediate. Despite the current volatility, he still views Nvidia as a strong long-term investment.&nbsp;

A Nvidia spokesperson told Reuters about the "high demand" for its advanced chips, which often entail a significant lead time for production. The company is actively working on distributing orders to a broad range of customers in the United States and elsewhere, emphasising that these new export controls are not anticipated to have a significant short-term impact.&nbsp;

This development follows the Biden administration's imposition of export restrictions earlier this month on the shipment of AI chips designed by Nvidia and other firms to China. The objective of these restrictions is to prevent Beijing from accessing cutting-edge U.S. technologies that could potentially strengthen its military capabilities. These new regulations are scheduled to go into effect in November and encompass export controls extending to countries such as Iran and Russia.&nbsp;
