NVIDIA: Record Revenue Sustains Interest, but Shares Remain Under Pressure
NVIDIA's revenue for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 surged by 85% to $81.62 billion, marking another record quarter for the company. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $1.87, exceeding the Wall Street consensus forecast of $1.76. The primary driver of growth remains the data centre segment based on the Blackwell architecture, which accounts for approximately 92% of the company's total revenue.
At the same time, uncertainty surrounding the Chinese market persists. Although small batches of H200 chips intended for Chinese customers received approval from US regulators, the company has yet to recognise any revenue from these shipments. Regulatory considerations therefore remain a key source of caution in investor assessments.
Technical Outlook
On the four-hour chart, an upward structure has been evident since April. The share price advanced from lows around 165 to May highs near 236, forming a series of higher lows. The ascending trendline drawn through the key support points of this move is currently being tested, with the price attempting to break below it.
The red resistance level around 232 and the green support level near 205 represent the nearest reference points within the current trading range. The Point of Control (POC) zone at 221–222 and the upper boundary of the volume profile around 225 could serve as intermediate targets should a recovery develop.
The price is currently trading below the lower boundary of the volume profile, which may act as the nearest stabilisation area if retested. The RSI indicator and moving averages are showing readings of 41, 48 and 50 respectively. The oscillator remains below the neutral zone, although the indicator's average lines do not yet confirm the emergence of a clear directional trend.
Key Takeaways
The record earnings report was not enough to prevent a correction in NVIDIA shares, suggesting that the market had been anticipating even stronger results. Meanwhile, regulatory uncertainty regarding shipments to China remains in place. Future price performance will largely depend on how resilient demand from hyperscalers proves to be in the absence of meaningful revenue contributions from the Chinese market.
