Nvidia stock has dropped after earnings in six of the past eight quarters as Wednesday's report nears

8/24/2026

Nvidia (NVDA) has fallen after quarterly results in six of the past eight periods, including each of the last four, according to Yahoo Finance AlphaSpace analysis. The chipmaker reports Wednesday evening.

Shares have outperformed the S&P 500 (^GSPC) by five percentage points over the past month, per the same data, setting a demanding standard heading into the release.

The market is positioned for Nvidia to deliver strong numbers and for chief executive Jensen Huang to sound bullish on the call.

That combination of elevated expectations and a poor post-earnings track record makes a valuation re-rating difficult. HSBC analyst Frank Lee wrote in a note ahead of the results that it is possible, though not easy.
