- The exit caused Applied Digital‘s stock to tumble nearly 8% in after-hours trading on Tuesday.
- Meanwhile, Nvidia doubled down on its commitment to CoreWeave with an additional $2 billion investment in January 2026.
- The chipmaker’s new investments include positions in Intel, Nokia, and Synopsys.
Shares of Applied Digital Corp. plunged on Tuesday after a new regulatory filing revealed that Nvidia Corp. had completely exited its position in the company. Nvidia sold its $177 million stake, comprising nearly 7.72 million shares, by December 31, 2025, according to the document.
The semiconductor giant had initially invested in Applied Digital in September 2024 as part of a $160 million funding round. That capital was intended to boost the company’s AI infrastructure for building high-performance computing data centers.
Consequently, APLD stock fell nearly 8% in extended trading, deepening its losses from the regular session. However, retail sentiment on Stocktwits remained mixed, with one bullish user urging investors to “buy the dip” as nothing had fundamentally changed.
Meanwhile, Nvidia has maintained and even expanded its investment in cloud provider CoreWeave Inc.. In January 2026, it announced an additional $2 billion investment to deepen their strategic AI partnership.
According to the latest filing, Nvidia also established new positions in Intel Corp., Nokia Corp., and Synopsys, Inc. The company simultaneously sold its holdings in Arm Holdings PLC, Recursion Pharmaceuticals Inc., and WeRide Inc.
