Nvidia has beaten earnings for 9 quarters in a row. Can Jensen and co. make it 10?

While yesterday’s tariff reprieve sent stocks soaring, the focus today is shifting onto one company, with AI darling Nvidia set to report its first-quarter results after the bell.

After powering the AI trade, both literally and figuratively, for the last two years, Nvidia’s earnings have typically beaten estimates.

Data from FactSet reveals that Nvidia has been on a winning earnings streak for the past nine quarters, though Wall Streets analysts have been getting closer and closer in the guessing game, as they adjusted to the remarkable pace of growth that the company was putting up.

Nvidia surprises investors

Todays results will cover a three-month period that included the DeepSeek crash, President Trump’s market-shaking tariffs, and an export ban of its H20 chips to China that cost Nvidia $15 billion in sales as a result.

So, what are traders expecting?

Per Sherwood News’ Luke Kawa, investors will be looking to see if Nvidia can hit earnings per share of $0.88 on $43.4 billion of revenue — the average of analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg.

More importantly, however, the market may home in on four things: the company’s access to China, gross margins, the Blackwell ramp, and its sovereign AI efforts.

How Tesla quietly wound up owning a small piece of SpaceX

Tesla is converting its recent $2 billion investment in Elon Musk’s AI company, xAI, into a small ownership stake in SpaceX — just months before the rocket maker’s highly anticipated IPO.

Here’s what happened: Tesla announced its xAI investment in late January, after a shareholder proposal to invest fell short last year. Several days later, xAI merged with SpaceX. All three companies are headed by Musk.

Now, regulatory filings with the Federal Trade Commission show Tesla converting that investment into a small stake in SpaceX, formalizing the financial link between the companies ahead of the rocket maker’s IPO. SpaceX is expected to go public this year at a valuation some speculate could top $1.75 trillion, potentially making it the biggest company to ever go public. (The current record holder, Saudi Aramco, went public at a more than $1.7 trillion valuation in 2020.)

While the size of Tesla’s stake wasn’t available, Bloomberg reports that the investment would equate to ownership of less than 1%.

While SpaceX and Tesla have engaged in related-party transactions over the years, Tesla had not previously disclosed an equity investment in SpaceX.

Southwest stopped fuel hedging a year ago. Whoops.

It’s been a year since Southwest said it would end its fuel-hedging program. Oil’s moves this year make that decision look like a mistake.
