Nvidia 주가 하락

What happened: Nvidia's stock price has been declining, with institutional investors pulling back instead of buying the dip. This is a departure from the usual behavior of these investors, who typically step in during price drops. The stock has underperformed the S&P 500 for six consecutive trading days, its longest such streak since 2025. Meanwhile, Kalshi traders are betting that Nvidia's chip prices are decreasing. Adding to the negative sentiment, Nvidia's director Mark Stevens sold 1 million shares last week. The stock experienced a significant one-day drop of 12%, erasing $279 billion in market cap.

Market impact: The tech sector, particularly AI chip stocks, is affected. Nvidia's stock decline could indicate a broader sell-off in tech, given its status as an AI darling. The chip sector as a whole experienced its largest single-day dollar loss this year due to Nvidia's drop. The sell-off is driven by concerns about AI demand, competition, and a potential slowdown in semiconductor sales.

What to watch next: Nvidia's earnings report on May 24 will provide insights into its AI demand and revenue trajectory. Broadcom's Q3 AI guidance, due in the coming months, could offer more clarity on the AI chip market's health. Additionally, the market will closely watch Nvidia's stock price movement around the $200 level, a key technical support zone.
