Nvidia is plummeting right after setting an all-time high
The spirited rally that propelled shares of Nvidia upward by double digits in the first three sessions of 2025 has been more than halved on Tuesday morning. The stock opened up 2.5% at a record high of $153.13, surpassing the prior peak of $152.89 on November 21, the session following its latest earnings report.
Since then, it’s gone straight down, off more than 5% as of 11:05 a.m. ET, on track for its largest daily loss since September and barely above its 50-day moving average. There’s no clear catalyst to explain the dump. Other stocks in the industry like Micron, Applied Materials, and Qualcomm are all off their daily highs, but still maintaining gains for the session.
Nvidia’s put-call ratio, which hit its lowest level since December 2021 on Monday ahead of CEO Jensen Huang’s keynote address, is creeping higher as of 10:50 a.m. but still well below levels that prevailed for much of the past three years.
