Nvidia<\/a> shares tumbled on Tuesday on widening fears that Google<\/a> is gaining ground in artificial intelligence, erasing nearly $200 billion (\u20ac173 billion) in market value from the artificial intelligence (AI) <\/a>chipmaker.<\/p>\n

The sell-off saw Nvidia\u2019s shares fall 4.4 per cent, after rebounding from steeper earlier losses. It rippled through the broader market, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite down 0.2 per cent by late morning.<\/p>\n

Server maker Super Micro Computer, which is a key partner to Nvidia, fell 3.7 per cent, while software group Oracle, which has committed to spending billions of dollars on the chipmaker\u2019s high-performance systems, lost 2 per cent.<\/p>\n

Shares in data centre operator CoreWeave, in which Nvidia owns a 6 per cent stake, fell 3.7 per cent, alongside its AI cloud rival Nebius, which was down 3.6 per cent.<\/p>\n

Investors blamed the declines on excitement surrounding Alphabet\u2019s own AI-specialised chips, known as tensor processing units.<\/p>\n

Google last week released Gemini 3, its latest large language model, which is considered to have leapfrogged OpenAI\u2019s ChatGPT. Google\u2019s model was trained using TPUs (tensor processing units) rather than the Nvidia chips that power OpenAI\u2019s systems.<\/p>\n

The release of Gemini 3 \u201cmay prove to be a subtler but more important version of the DeepSeek disruption\u201d, said Mike O\u2019Rourke at Jones Trading, referring to the Chinese AI start-up whose emergence in January triggered a sharp sell-off for US tech groups including Nvidia.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe market is embracing the view that Google is the clear-cut AI leader,\u201d O\u2019Rourke added.<\/p>\n

Charlie McElligott, a strategist at Nomura, also likened Gemini 3\u2019s impact to the DeepSeek shock. Alphabet\u2019s latest model has \u201creset\u201d the \u201cAI hierarchy chess board\u201d and pulled the market into a \u201cnew DeepSeek moment\u201d, he said in a note to clients.<\/p>\n

A report in The Information late on Monday suggested that Google was pitching potential clients including Meta on using TPUs in their own data centres rather than Nvidia\u2019s chips.<\/p>\n

Google\u2019s TPUs have until now only been available for customers to rent through its cloud computing service. Meta, like OpenAI, is one of Nvidia\u2019s biggest customers.<\/p>\n

Alphabet shares rose 0.5 per cent on Tuesday, pushing it close to a $4tn market capitalisation for the first time.<\/p>\n

Nvidia has now lost more than $800bn in market value since it peaked just above $5tn less than a month ago. AMD, Nvidia\u2019s main rival in AI-focused chips, also fell 7.5 per cent on Tuesday. – Copyright The Financial Times Limited 2025<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nvidia shares tumbled on Tuesday on widening fears that Google is gaining ground in artificial intelligence, erasing nearly…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":159282,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[220,218,219,1711,61,60,233,80],"class_list":{"0":"post-159281","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-artificial-intelligence","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-artificial-intelligence","10":"tag-artificialintelligence","11":"tag-google","12":"tag-ie","13":"tag-ireland","14":"tag-nvidia","15":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159281","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=159281"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159281\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/159282"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=159281"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=159281"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=159281"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
