Record Revenue, Nvidia Stock Soars
The chip manufacturer #NVIDIA just reported a record-breaking Q4 financial report with revenues of $39.3 billion, up 12% from the previous quarter and 78% year-over-year.
🔥 Annual net income increased by 145% to $72.9 billion, affirming Nvidia's leading position in the field of artificial intelligence (AI).
💰 Earnings per share (EPS) reached $0.89, higher than analysts' estimates ($0.84). This is also the fourth consecutive quarter that Nvidia has surpassed market expectations.
📈 Nvidia stock closed at $131.28 (+3.67%) and continued to rise 2.32% in after-hours trading, reaching $134.33.
🚀 The data center segment – Nvidia's largest growth driver – posted revenues of $35.6 billion, up 16% from the previous quarter and nearly doubled from the same period last year. This surge is driven by strong demand for Blackwell AI chips, which play a critical role in providing computing power for artificial intelligence models.
CEO Jensen Huang stated:
"Nvidia is scaling AI computing at an unprecedented rate. The demand for Blackwell is extremely high as businesses need more powerful AI processing capabilities."
Prospects & Challenges: Will Nvidia Continue to Maintain Its Growth?
🔮 In the forecast for Q1 of fiscal 2026, Nvidia expects revenues to reach $43 billion, in line with Wall Street's expectations but lower than some more optimistic forecasts.
💡 Gross margin is expected to reach 70.6% (GAAP) and 71% (Non-GAAP), indicating that Nvidia can retain about 71 cents of profit for every $1 in revenue.
⚠️ Some potential risks:
Supply constraints: Nvidia faces supply chain issues as demand for AI chips surges.
Increasingly fierce competition: Rivals like #AMD , Intel, and Chinese companies are also ramping up AI chip production.
📊 The US stock market also reacted mixed:
The S&P 500 rose slightly by 0.1% after a 4-day decline.
The Nasdaq Composite index increased by 0.3% thanks to the rise in technology stocks.
The Dow Jones fell 0.4% due to pressure from other stocks.
Nvidia & Cryptocurrency: GPU – A Key Factor in the Crypto Market
💎 Nvidia's GPUs play a crucial role in the cryptocurrency market, especially in mining and processing blockchain data.
1️⃣ Cryptocurrency Mining
Nvidia's GPUs were once the top choice for Ethereum mining before the network transitioned to Proof-of-Stake (PoS).
Some other coins still rely on GPUs for mining, although their popularity has declined.
2️⃣ AI & Blockchain
The AI boom could positively impact cryptocurrency, especially projects that combine blockchain with AI.
Nvidia GPUs support the processing of blockchain data, smart contracts, and high-computational-demand DeFi applications.
3️⃣ Impact on graphics card prices
Previously, when demand for coin mining surged, Nvidia's GPU prices were often pushed up high.
Currently, Nvidia is focusing more on AI, but the connection between processing chips and cryptocurrency remains significant.
Conclusion
🚀 Nvidia continues to prove its leading position in the AI field with record revenues and soaring profits.
⚡ Although no longer overly dependent on the crypto market, Nvidia GPUs still have a significant impact on the blockchain and cryptocurrency industry.
🔥 The question arises: Can Nvidia maintain its strong growth momentum in the future, or will it face difficulties from competition and challenges in the AI & cryptocurrency markets? #anhbacong
