Nvidia’s Sharp Decline: Market Turbulence or Buy Opportunity?Nvidia ( NASDAQ:NVDA ) shares took a steep dive on Monday, falling nearly 9% after former President Donald Trump confirmed that tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico will take effect on Tuesday. This sharp drop contributed to broader market weakness, with the Dow tumbling 800 points (-1.8%) and the Nasdaq Composite sliding over 3%.
Despite Nvidia’s recent earnings beat, its stock has fallen over 13% since last Wednesday, erasing its $3 trillion market cap and bringing its valuation down to $2.79 trillion. However, Tuesday’s trading session saw a notable rebound, with NASDAQ:NVDA gaining 3% as buying pressure returned. Given the technical setup and macroeconomic factors at play, is Nvidia poised for a comeback?
Tariff Fears and Supply Chain Scrutiny
Nvidia’s revenue surged 78% year-over-year to $39.33 billion in its latest earnings report, surpassing analysts’ expectations. However, investor sentiment remains cautious due to the uncertainty surrounding new trade tariffs.
Trump’s 25% tariff on imports from Mexico and Canada could impact Nvidia’s supply chain. While most of Nvidia’s chips are manufactured in Taiwan, other high-end components and full computing systems are assembled in Mexico and the U.S., making them subject to the new duties.
Technical Analysis
Despite Monday’s sharp sell-off, Tuesday’s market session saw a 4% bounce, signaling potential recovery. Key technical indicators suggest a possible shift in momentum. Nvidia’s relative strength index (RSI) has dipped close to oversold territory, suggesting the stock may be due for a reversal. NASDAQ:NVDA is trading at levels last seen in September, a historically strong support area that could trigger buying interest.
With traders digesting tariff implications and market conditions stabilizing, Nvidia could see a short-term bounce if momentum continues.
