What's Going On With Nvidia Stock Monday?
Portfolio Pulse from Anusuya Lahiri
Nvidia Corp (NVDA) stock experienced some volatility due to reports of its specialized AI chip for China, the HGX H20, underperforming with only about 20% of the computing power of its H100 chip. Despite this, Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang committed to meeting Japan's high demand for AI processors during his visit to Tokyo, where he met with Prime Minister Fumio Kishida. Japan has allocated approximately 2 trillion yen for chip investments, which may benefit Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM) and the new chip foundry venture Rapidus. Nvidia's stock has risen 227% year-to-date, fueled by the AI boom, but traded 1.10% lower at $462.50 on Monday.
