AI Levels Up: Inside The Chips Driving Nvidia Stock
Nvidia stock fell 1.6% to 119.46, but the shares recovered, closing flat at 121.44. The stock hit 118.15 intraday, nearly touching its 21-day line and moving toward its 50-day average. Nvidia stock investors could consider 120.70 as an aggressive entry, according to IBD analysis. The Sept. 26 high of 127.27 works as a trendline entry, with a 131.26 buy point from an unusual handle.
Other major chip stocks retreated. Nvidia chipmaker Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM) shed 2.4% to close at 173.67. That’s just below a 175.45 cup-with-handle buy point cleared last week.
Broadcom (AVGO) retreated a fraction to close at 172.50. AVGO stock edged closer to a 172.42 early entry cleared last week.
AMD (AMD) lost a fraction to close at 164.08, falling back toward its 200-day line.
Beijing’s move aims to give China chipmakers a boost, the report, which cited unnamed sources, said.
China is an important market for Nvidia. But the chip behemoth has grappled with U.S. government concerns about giving a major rival access to sensitive semiconductor technology.
Late last year, the Biden Administration announced tighter restrictions on export of AI chips and manufacturing equipment, triggering an Nvidia stock sell-off.
China also hopes to give its technology industry an edge, especially in AI. China tech giant Huawei is reportedly rolling out a new AI chip to challenge Nvidia.
