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.

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.

Volkswagen is reportedly closing in on its own, separate tariff deal with the US

In a bid to get its own tariff rate below the 15% applied to most EU exports, Volkswagen is dangling big US investments.

Speaking at a trade show Monday, VW CEO Oliver Blume said the automaker is in advanced talks on a deal to limit its own tariff burden. Volkswagen reported a tariff cost of $1.5 billion in the first half of the year.

Speaking to Bloomberg TV, Blume said the company is in close contact with the Trump administration and has had “good talks” about its separate deal. The current 15% tariff rate on EU vehicles would still “be a burden for Volkswagen,” Blume said.

A company reaching a tariff deal separate from its home country isn’t typical, though there’s already precedent this year, with Apple’s $100 billion US investment deal amid chip tariffs and President Trump’s threats to add a levy to smartphones. Nvidia and AMD similarly struck a deal to receive the ability to sell chips in China and in exchange agreed to give the US 15% of the revenue from those sales.
