00:00:00 Chipmaking giant Nvidia (NVDA) is scheduled to report its fourth quarter earnings next Friday, February 26, with investors paying close attention to a variety of factors, including supply and demand dynamics and the possible impacts of any trade controls against the semiconductor manufacturer. Yahoo Finance host Madison Mills dives deeper into Nvidia’s earnings and guidance expectations and explores how tariffs could affect the company.
02:04:06 Nvidia (NVDA) will be reporting fourth quarter earnings next week on Wednesday, February 26. To discuss what options markets are predicting ahead of the tech giant’s results, BayCrest managing director of equity derivatives David Boole joins Morning Brief. According to Boole, options markets anticipate approximately 7% stock price volatility following the announcement — a moderate projection compared to recent quarters. This suggests that Nvidia’s quarterly results report, while still significant, matters “a little bit less than it used to,” Boole explains. Though a 7% movement would translate to roughly $240 billion in market capitalization fluctuation, Boole points out this is only 2.5 times Nvidia’s typical daily volatility. “It’s a big event, but I’m starting to think that it might not be a one-day surge like it used to,” he tells Yahoo Finance, while acknowledging the results will likely “set the stage” for the stock’s trajectory in the following month.

04:57:59 Nvidia’s (NVDA) upcoming fourth quarter results — due out next Friday, February 28 — are expected to be pivotal, as the company begins shipping its new Blackwell AIchips. Francisco Bido, senior portfolio manager at FM Investments, joins Catalysts to point out that the demand for the new Blackwell chips will be a critical indicator of Nvidia’s performance. “I’ll be paying lots of attention to the demand for the new Blackwell chips. That’s one thing. And, I’m also interested in seeing if they’re willing to discuss how foreign governments and US government is going to increase their spending in AI if they have any hints where that’s going,” Bido says. Regarding the development of Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) platform DeepSeek, Bido believes it will benefit the AI industry by expanding its user base. “DeepSeek is basically a good thing for the AI industry. It’s a way of making it widely available to many other potential users, and, if anything, it just widens the ecosystem and accelerates the early adoption of AI,” he says. On market volatility, Bido anticipates disruption from uncertainty around tariffs. “It’s not so much whether they get implemented or not. It’s just the threat of having them… that forces the people on the other side or the countries on the other side to think about diversification regardless if they’re getting implemented or not,” Bido explains.
07:04:49 Nvidia (NVDA) is set to report earnings on Wednesday, with Wall Street expecting the chipmaker’s stock to move 7% in either direction on the results. Julie Hyman and Alexandra Canal outline what investors need to know before Nvidia’s earnings release.
