Nvidia briefly spikes after Jensen Huang sees at least $1 trillion in AI chip sales through 2027

The stock then gave it all up and then some.

One. Trillion. Dollars.

That’s how much Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang sees the company making through sales of AI chips through 2027, at least.

“I am certain computing demand will be much higher than that,” he added.

The stock had popped to its highs of the day on Monday after Huang offered this guidance during his keynote address at the chip designer’s GTC event in San Jose. Shares were up more than 4.5% before quickly paring that advance to less than 1.5% — their lows of the day.

The stock is up modestly in early trading on Tuesday.

In late October, Huang said orders for Blackwell and Vera Rubin chips were above $500 billion through 2026. Following the release of Q4 earnings, CFO Colette Kress said the firm expected revenues to exceed that prior target.

Reported sales of Blackwell in Q4 2025, all of Nvidia’s compute sales in fiscal 2026, and expectations for its current as well as the following fiscal year sum up to $820 billion.

Consensus estimates for Nvidia’s fiscal 2027 and 2028 (which roughly correspond to calendar years 2026 and 2027) suggest $364 billion and $470 billion in total sales, respectively, in those years, or roughly $834 billion combined.

SpaceX gets a wave of bullish ratings from Wall Street analysts

SpaceX received more than a dozen positive analyst calls on Tuesday — including from major Wall Street banks — as they initiate coverage on Elon Musk’s space and AI company.

SpaceX went public on June 12 at a $2.2 trillion valuation, the largest debut in history. While the company hasn’t yet posted a profit, it seems to have convinced Wall Street that it will get there and grow its valuation on the way.

Of the at least 17 analysts that gave a rating on Tuesday, all but one gave it a “buy” or “outperform” rating. MoffettNathanson was "neutral."

The ratings come as SpaceX joined the Nasdaq 100 index, a benchmark tech-heavy basket of companies that underpins millions of portfolios. The inclusion adds built-in demand for the stock from index funds and ETFs.

Still, SpaceX fell more than 5% on Tuesday amid a broader sell-off, and is currently effectively flat from its opening price of $150 a share.

Nike sinks to lowest level since 2014 after warning of “challenged” sales environment in Q4 report

Did Nike do it?

Investors had a mixed reaction after the global sports apparel company reported its fourth quarter earnings on Tuesday after the bell. Shares initially rose 5% as Nike beat out Wall Street expectations amid a hefty tariff refund bonus. However, the stock then sank to its lowest level since August 2014 in postmarket trading.

Here are the Q4 numbers:

  • Revenue of $11.0 billion (estimate: $10.8 billion).

  • Adjusted earnings per share of $0.20 (estimate: $0.12).

Ahead of this report, Nike warned that results would be flattered by a one-time tariff refund (now estimated at roughly $0.52 per share for the bottom line). That gave the company an extra cushion in snapping its streak of seven quarters of year-over-year profit declines.

Over the past year, the company had been punished by tariffs on imported goods, stagnant consumer spending, and increasing competition from other footwear brands like New Balance, Adidas, and Hoka.

Outgoing CFO Matthew Friend deemed it an “increasingly challenging operating environment, where sell-through remains challenged.”
