- Nvidia experienced a massive loss of $279 billion in market value following its recent quarterly financial report.
- The disappointing financial results led to a 2.1% decline in the S&P 500.
- After a strong 44% rebound from its August low of $90, Nvidia's stock price struggled to break past the $130 mark or achieve new highs above $140.
NVIDIA Corp NVDA experienced a massive $279 billion loss in its market value. This sharp drop came soon after the company released its quarterly financial results.
Even though sales had doubled, the results did not meet investor expectations. This news affected the financial markets, causing a 2.1% decline in the S&P 500, marking its biggest single-day drop since early August.
This turbulent period isn't unique, as September often challenges U.S. stocks with increased volatility and market corrections.
Nvidia's recent performance highlights this pattern, following a shaky recovery from a 35% decline between June and August.
Despite the stock price's strong 44% recovery from its August low of $90, it couldn't break past $130 or set new record highs above $140.
In recent days, Nvidia's stock has dropped another 17%, with 10% of that decline happening on a single Tuesday. The stock is now hovering around $100, a key psychological support level.
If it falls to this point, it could provide a base for a rebound. Over the past three months, the stock has been in a consolidation phase, moving between $90 and $140.
This period of uncertainty may persist until the stock breaks above this range. If it exceeds its previous all-time high, investors expect another significant rise.
However, until such a move occurs, the stock remains stuck in this range, highlighting broader market uncertainties and the volatility of tech investments.
After the closing bell on Tuesday, September 3, the stock closed at $108.00, trading down by 9.45%.
