Earnings season is winding down, with nearly all of our large tech companies reportingโ€”except one: $NVDA (NVIDIA Corporation) It's officially crunch time for the AI kingpin, and expectations couldn't be higher, as usual. ๐—ฆ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ: ๐—ฆ&๐—ฃ ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ ๐—•๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—ฅ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ & ๐—š๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜„๐˜๐—ต Following my previous post, most of the S&P 500 companies have now reported their earnings. Of those, an impressive ~83% beat EPS estimates, and roughly the same percentage beat on revenueโ€”well above long-term averages. Year-over-year earnings growth sits at a robust ~11โ€“12%, beating expectations. Revenue growth rates sit near 6.3%, also easily outpacing forecasts. These numbers are an excellent sign for supporting the ongoing momentum we've seen in the market. Bottom line: itโ€™s shaping up to be one of the stronger quarters weโ€™ve seen in recent years. The โ€œMagnificent 7โ€ have been especially dominant, though only Nvidia remains to officially close it off. ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜โ€™๐˜€ ๐—ข๐—ป ๐——๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ธ ๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐—ก๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ฎ? Markets are jittery yet hopeful: This report will be a litmus test for the AI trade, with demand staying strong but scrutiny rising. Geopolitics and supply chains are part of the story tooโ€”especially after U.S.-China tensions and chip export limits recently made headlines again. Still, optimism remains. A few rate-cut signals recently, and Nvidiaโ€™s dominant AI footprint could keep the rally aliveโ€”if the numbers back it up. ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—œโ€™๐—น๐—น ๐—•๐—ฒ ๐—ช๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐—ก๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ฎโ€™๐˜€ ๐—ฅ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜ Does it easily beat EPS and revenue estimates. Any clarity on AI demand, product cycles, or chip supplyโ€”especially in China? Can it propel the tech rally further, or spark a momentary sell-off call if it slips? Best, Reinhardt
