Nvidia’s Modest Forecast Raises Questions About Expectations
Even if some investors have made Nvidia the most valuable company in the world, the company still fell short of meeting their high expectations for fourth-quarter revenue, which it predicted on Wednesday, which was marginally higher than predictions.
According to Reuters, the stock of the Santa Clara, California-based firm dropped almost 2% during the course of the extended trading session. On Wednesday, they had ended the day down 0.8%.

According to data provided by LSEG, analysts had an average estimate of $37.09 billion for the fourth quarter, while the firm predicted revenue of $37.5 billion, plus or minus 2 percent.
"The age of AI is in full steam, propelling a global shift to NVIDIA computing," stated Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia.

Soaring Stock Prices Reflect Investor Optimism Despite Challenges

The company's manufacturing partner TSMC has limited capacity for innovative production procedures, which has been a bottleneck for its chip supply.
Earnings per share for the third quarter came in at 81 cents, which was lower than the 75 cents predicted by analysts.
