Nvidia Stock Leads Chipmakers Tuesday: What's Going On?
Portfolio Pulse from Adam Eckert
Nvidia shares surged after reports that Elon Musk's xAI plans to build a supercomputer using Nvidia chips. The supercomputer, expected to be operational by fall 2025, will be at least four times the size of the largest existing GPU clusters. Other chip stocks, including AMD, Micron, Intel, TSM, and Super Micro Computer, also saw movement. Nvidia's recent earnings beat estimates, and the company announced a 10-for-1 stock split and a 150% dividend increase.
