The AI hedgehog day (pun intended) is upon us, for the fate of the market's ongoing bull run hinges on NVIDIA producing another stellar guidance out of its repertoire of market-pleasing announcements today. NVIDIA's Q1 2025 Earnings Expectations NVIDIA is gearing up to announce its earnings for the first quarter of its fiscal year 2025 later today. Analysts expect NVIDIA to report $24.69 billion in revenue for the quarter, translating into an EPS of $5.65.

The current stock market rally has three principal legs to stand on: a belief in "immaculate disinflation," robust macroeconomic growth, and NVIDIA's AI-driven gains. Yet, if Citi's projections pan out, one of these legs is about to give way, at least momentarily. NVIDIA is slated to announce its latest quarterly earnings on the 22nd of May, 2024. While the past few earnings disclosures have seen NVIDIA's stock post outsized gains on the back of fierce AI-related tailwinds, the upcoming event might prove to be a deviation from this bullish pattern. To wit, Citi has now published its views on NVIDIA's […]

NVIDIA National Day - a euphemism for the criticality of the GPU manufacturer's earnings in sustaining the AI-driven gravy train - managed to deliver on the hype, with the company posting another shocker guidance that has sent a euphoric thrill across the halls of finance on Wall Street.
