NVIDIA Surges 6% as a 70% Growth Forecast Overrides a Memory Margin Warning, AMD and Intel Tick Up

NVIDIA said fiscal 2028 revenue will grow about 70% as memory costs are expected to pressure gross margins for three straight quarters.

  • NVIDIA stock surged 6% to $221.80 on Thursday after the company reported fiscal Q2 2027 revenue of $96.2 billion, more than double year-over-year, overshadowing a three-quarter gross margin reset.
  • Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress forecast 70% revenue growth in fiscal 2028, far exceeding analyst expectations of 44%, though she warned margins will fall for three consecutive quarters as memory suppliers control pricing.
  • Kress stated NVIDIA is "experiencing extreme pricing conditions in memory," noting that cost increases have exceeded prior expectations and will head "even higher into next year." The scarcity reflects the same AI demand surge driving the company's revenue growth.
  • Semiconductor shares rallied broadly Thursday as the iShares Semiconductor ETF climbed 2% to $527, while Advanced Micro Devices and Intel each gained 1% on NVIDIA's AI demand commentary and supply constraints.
  • Supply commitments swelled to $279 billion at quarter end, largely tied to memory procurement for the Vera Rubin platform now in full production and Blackwell Ultra shipments driving data center revenue growth.
