Nvidia (NVDA) stock rose more than 2% in premarket trading on Wednesday, after the previous day’s gains reversed a three-day decline that wiped nearly $430 billion off the AI chip giant’s market value.
Shares rose more than 6% on Tuesday to close at $126.09 a share after falling nearly 13% in the previous three sessions as investors exited the year’s hottest AI games.
Nvidia hit a record closing high exactly one week ago when it briefly surpassed Microsoft ( MSFT ) as the world’s most valuable company. The heavyweight chip reclaimed that title as the three-day sell-off got underway.
“I think it’s very overblown. I don’t think people should be nervous about what’s going on with Nvidia,” Kenny Polcari, managing partner at Kace Capital Advisors, told Yahoo Finance on Tuesday.
He added: “I will exploit this weakness as an opportunity,” referring to the timing of the decline.
“We are at the end of the quarter, so this is a defining period for the quarter. There are a lot of large asset managers who are trying to reposition themselves and rebalance,” he said.
Polcari added that he wouldn’t be surprised if the stock fell “another 5% or 8%.”
On Tuesday, Nvidia’s market capitalization rose again to hover around the $3 trillion level, although it is still below the valuations of Microsoft or Apple (AAPL).
Nvidia played a pivotal role in boosting the S&P 500 (^GSPC) and Nasdaq (^IXIC) to repeated record highs in 2024.
The Santa Clara, California-based company completed a 10-for-1 stock split on June 10.
