Nvidia Options Traders Brace for Historic $320B Market Swing Post-Earnings
Nvidia faces its most consequential earnings report in history as derivatives markets price in a 7% move—equivalent to $320 billion in market value—following Wednesday's Q3 FY26 results. The chipmaker's staggering growth trajectory remains intact, with Wall Street forecasting $54.8 billion revenue (up 56% YoY) and $1.25 EPS (up 54%).
Despite a 10% pullback from October highs—partially driven by high-profile exits like Peter Thiel's hedge fund—analysts maintain a Strong Buy rating with $242 price targets implying 30% upside. The anticipated swing would dwarf February 2024's $276 billion record, underscoring Nvidia's outsized influence across tech and crypto mining sectors.
