Potential Impact of Nvidia’s Q2 Report
Now, the markets expect Nvidia’s second quarterly report for 2024, as it could influence the AI tokens’ prices. Nvidia will post its fiscal Q2 earnings on August 28 and the results could trigger a price surge for AI-related tokens. AI tokens usually see a price boost triggered by the hype around AI projects such as Nvidia’s stock rise or breakthroughs like OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
Market and Traders' Expectations
AI tokens were mostly popular among South Korean traders, according to a June report from Bloomberg. The publication noted that Nvidia-loving South Korean crypto traders’ share of AI token trading surged to almost 19% in May after Nvidia posted its Q1 earnings report. The company’s revenue for Q1 2024 showed $26 billion which was an impressive increase of 18% from the previous year. According to official reports, the AI giant anticipates Q2 revenue of $28 billion, with GAAP and non-GAAP gross margins projected at 74.8% and 75.5%, respectively. According to Nvidia’s CEO, Jensen Huang, the next industrial revolution has begun and companies and countries are teaming up with Nvidia to shift the trillion-dollar traditional data centers to accelerated computing and build a new type of data center – AI factories.
Nvidia’s Q2 results could affect the AI tokens market as history has already shown how the broad crypto market is related to booms and busts in coins related to popular trends including AI.
