As a leading chip maker (not the potato kind), Nvidia’s components are a key tool used for AI, meaning that most big tech companies rely on its technology. As a key player in the AI space, the uptick in this area has led to a massive increase for Nvidia’s stock price, making it one of the most valuable companies in the world with a multi-trillion dollar valuation.
Buying Nvidia shares has been likened to owning shovels in an AI gold rush. However, it remains a volatile stock despite its monstrous valuation because it's priced for perfection, for example, Nvidia's stock experienced the largest single-day drop in stock market history in January 2025, plummeting $600 billion (about £475 billion) in response to the soaring popularity of DeepSeek, a Chinese AI rival, building LLM models cheap as chips.
April 3, 2025: Tech stocks including Apple, Microsoft and Nvidia reeled at the prospect of having to shoulder tariffs on hardware imported from places like Taiwan, China and Mexico. Apple manufactures most of its products in China, while Nvidia's chips are made in Taiwan before heading to assembly lines in Mexico. Happy Liberation Day guys!
April 2, 2025: Wedbush analyst Matt Bryson told CNBC yesterday that he's "definitely confident" that Nvidia (NVDA) will meet its guidance, while the company's "new chips are getting where they need to be," according to Yahoo Finance.
February 27, 2025: In a much anticipated earnings report, Nvidia revealed that quarterly revenue rose 78% and full fiscal-year revenue rose 114%. Overall, revenue for the last quarter of 2024 reached $39.33 billion and earnings per share (EPS) hit $0.89 — both beating Wall Street expectations. It also issued strong guidance for the current quarter, hopefully restoring some confidence.
February 21, 2025: Nvidia is set to report earnings on Wednesday, with Wall Street expecting the chipmaker's stock to move 7% in either direction on the results, according to Yahoo Finance.

All investing should be regarded as longer term. The value of your investments can go up and down, and you may get back less than you invest. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

Buying shares in just one company is generally considered a riskier bet than investing in a range of investments - AKA a "diversified portfolio". Experts generally recommend holding a mix of investments in specific assets and funds. Funds are ready-made portfolios of multiple companies' shares (potentially including NVIDIA), and the idea is that drops in the value of one constituent company's share price might be offset by rises in others.
NVIDIA is a major part of the NASDAQ, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).
