Nvidia’s AI-Driven Growth Continues to Impress Despite Stock Dip
Nvidia's recent earnings report underscores its dominance in AI and graphics chips, with fiscal second-quarter revenue soaring 56% year-over-year to $46.7 billion. Data center revenue, a key growth driver, reached $41.1 billion, up 56% annually. The company's non-GAAP gross margin remained robust at 72.7%, reflecting best-in-class profitability.
Despite a 2.78% stock decline post-report, Nvidia shares have surged 28% year-to-date and 240% since early 2023. Sequential trends revealed mixed but healthy performance: Blackwell data center revenue grew 17%, while compute revenue dipped 1% due to reduced H20 sales. Networking revenue jumped 46%, fueled by NVLink adoption.
Investors continue to scrutinize Nvidia's ability to sustain its meteoric growth, particularly in AI infrastructure. The company's bullish guidance suggests confidence in maintaining momentum, even as market expectations reach stratospheric levels.
