Shares of NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ: NVDA) plunged 6.22% on Tuesday, closing at $140.84 after a day of high trading volumes and volatile activity.
The sharp decline comes in the wake of CEO Jensen Huang’s highly anticipated keynote at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2025, which left investors questioning the immediate impact of the company’s latest innovations.
During his presentation, Huang unveiled several groundbreaking technologies, including the GeForce RTX 50 series of gaming chips and the new Cosmos platform designed for robotics and autonomous vehicles.
While these announcements highlight NVIDIA’s continued leadership in artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced computing, market analysts suggest that investors expected even more ambitious initiatives or tangible short-term growth catalysts.
“The Cosmos platform is a bold step for NVIDIA, especially in its potential to revolutionize robotics,” said tech analyst Laura Jensen. “However, the market may have been looking for breakthroughs in AI chipsets or partnerships that deliver immediate revenue boosts.”
Adding to NVIDIA’s woes, broader market conditions exerted downward pressure on technology stocks. Recent robust economic data has reignited fears of persistent inflation, pushing bond yields higher and prompting a tech sector sell-off. NVIDIA, a leader in high-growth sectors like gaming and AI, was among the hardest hit.
“This was a perfect storm for NVIDIA,” noted market strategist Alan Burke. “The combination of underwhelming investor sentiment post-CES and macroeconomic headwinds created a steep decline.”
Despite the drop, many analysts remain bullish on NVIDIA’s long-term prospects, especially as the company solidifies its position in AI technology and data center applications.
“NVIDIA’s vision for the future is sound,” said investment strategist Clara Morris. “The Cosmos platform and RTX 50 series are just the tip of the iceberg for their innovation pipeline. This stock remains a buy for those with a long-term horizon.”
Some analysts project NVIDIA’s market valuation could exceed $5 trillion within the next 18 months, driven by continued advancements in AI and strong demand for its high-performance computing products.
The intraday trading session saw NVIDIA shares swing between a high of $153.71 and a low of $140.04. Investors will now be closely monitoring NVIDIA’s next earnings report and updates on the commercial rollout of its CES announcements.
While NVIDIA’s stock has taken a hit in the short term, its innovation-driven strategy and leadership in key technology sectors offer optimism for a strong rebound. For now, investors are left to weigh the long-term promise against immediate market realities.
