After the close on Wednesday, chip-maker Nvidia (NVDA) released earnings from the fouth quarter of 2025. For the quarter, Nvidia saw earnings per share (EPS) of $1.62 on revenue of $68.1 billion. The company issued positive guidance for the first quarter of 2026.
The market said, "ho-hum."
There's no surprise that Nvidia shattered expectations. That's what the stock does.
Prior to the opening bell, shares of the world's most valuable company by market cap are flat to slightly higher. Wall Street is going to need more than this to keep the rally going during the period between earnings seasons. Most companies have already filed full year and 4th quarter 2025 reports. Year-to-date, the Dow is leading the way, up 2.59%. S&P is ahead by 1.47% and the NASDAQ is off by 0.39%.
Talks between Iran and the U.S. continued on Thursday, with most officials reporting positive progress toward a peaceful resolution, though many in the political shpere are keeping opinions mum with the buildup of military assets in the region by the U.S. indicating some kind of kinetic action.
There's little to report other than stocks have bounced back from Monday's losses and are looking forward to a positive return for the week. Friday's PPI report for February prior to the opening bell may influence trading.
Otherwise, the casino remains open.

Dow: 49,482.15, +307.65 (+0.63%)
