US Stocks: The shares of US-based chipmaking giant Nvidia Corp. dropped nearly 3% on Thursday’s Wall Street session after the company announced weak projections for its third-quarter (July to September) revenue estimates.

The company’s shares dropped 2.8% to 176.41, hitting the intraday low of Thursday after the stock markets opened in the United States on 28 August 2025. 

According to a Reuters report, Nvidia Corp. expects the sales for the third quarter of 2025 to be around $54 billion. The agency also mentioned that Wall Street analysts predicted the company to announce a revenue forecast of $60 billion. Hence the announcement fell short of analyst estimates.

This weak revenue forecast comes at a time when the pace of investments in artificial intelligence systems is ‘unsustainable’ and China’s competition is adding to the woes of the US-based chipmaking giant.

“The opportunity ahead is immense,” Nvidia Corp.’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Jensen Huang said. “We see $3 trillion to $4 trillion in AI infrastructure spend by the end of the decade,” he said.
