Nvidia Stock Eyes $5 Trillion Market Cap Amid AI Export Limits

Nvidia Shares Climb Premarket Despite Trump’s Comments on Blackwell AI Chip’s US Exclusivity

  • NVIDIA shares advanced in early premarket trading, aiming to recover after recent declines.
  • Company’s market value recently exceeded $5 trillion for the first time, but now sits just below that level.
  • Former President Donald Trump signaled that sales of advanced Blackwell Artificial Intelligence (AI) chips to China could face restrictions.
  • Trump emphasized the U.S. would not permit other countries to access the most advanced Ai technology.
  • Retail sentiment remained optimistic, with discussions highlighting confidence in Nvidia’s future performance.

Nvidia Corp. (NVDA) stock increased over 1% during early Monday premarket trading. This move suggested a potential end to a two-session losing streak after the company’s valuation recently slipped below the $5 trillion mark it topped last week.

The company’s stock price has traded between $86.62 and $212.19 over the past year, setting a record high on October 29. The shift in the premarket came amid comments from former U.S. President Donald Trump during a CBS ’60 Minutes’ interview on Sunday, where he indicated the U.S. could limit overseas sales of Nvidia’s latest Blackwell AI chips.

Trump stated the U.S. would not allow China or other countries to purchase Nvidia’s most advanced chips. He explained, “The most advanced, we will not let anybody have them other than the United States.” When asked if this restriction aimed to prevent other nations from gaining an equal AI advantage, Trump replied, “Well, they wouldn’t win it necessarily, but they would certainly have — an equal advantage.” He also claimed that U.S. companies are now able to generate and sell their own electricity more efficiently, with regulatory approvals accelerating from decades to just a few weeks.

These remarks may affect expectations on Wall Street regarding Nvidia’s potential revenue from high-end chip exports to China. Currently, the company supplies a scaled-down version of its AI chips, the H20, to Chinese customers. However, China has imposed limits on the H20’s use in government sectors, citing security risks.

Despite the regulatory environment and export control discussions, retail investors have expressed continued optimism about Nvidia’s stock prospects. Some note that China’s contribution has already been factored out of Nvidia’s projections, while others cite new partnerships, such as with Samsung, as positives for the company’s upcoming earnings.
