The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 252 points, or 0.5%, and reached another all-time intraday high. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq Composite traded near flat as investors monitored oil prices and awaited the Federal Reserve\u2019s latest monetary policy decision<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nvidia trails broader semiconductor rally<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite remaining one of the biggest beneficiaries of the artificial intelligence boom, <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2026\/06\/09\/nvidia-stock-is-back-in-the-red-today-whats-hurting-the-ai-darling\/\">Nvidia has lagged many semiconductor peers<\/a> in recent months.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through Tuesday&#8217;s close, Nvidia shares were up 11% for the year. By comparison, the PHLX Semiconductor Index had gained 88% over the same period.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Investors increasingly appear focused on how spending on AI infrastructure is being distributed across a broader group of companies rather than concentrating solely on Nvidia&#8217;s graphics processing units.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Initially, Nvidia&#8217;s primary challenge came from rival GPU maker Advanced Micro Devices. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, competition has expanded to include custom chip developers as well as companies focused on central processing units and specialized AI hardware.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Large technology companies that have traditionally been among Nvidia&#8217;s biggest customers are increasingly investing in internally developed chips as they seek to lower the cost of AI infrastructure deployments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Microsoft and Meta Platforms have both continued investing heavily in data centers and AI infrastructure, prompting closer scrutiny of capital spending levels across the industry.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Epoch AI researcher Isabel Juniewicz <a href=\"https:\/\/epoch.ai\/data-insights\/hyperscaler-capex-vs-cash-flow\">said in a post on Tuesday<\/a> that spending trends among hyperscale cloud providers remain significant.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;While the exact point at which cash capex will exceed inflows varies by company, aggregate cash capex across hyperscalers is on track to overtake operating cash flow around Q3 2026,&#8221; Juniewicz wrote.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Analysts remain constructive on long-term outlook<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite growing competitive pressures, some analysts remain optimistic about Nvidia&#8217;s long-term prospects.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Morning View&#8217;s analysis, Nvidia remains at the center of the global AI ecosystem and continues to benefit from what it described as a once-in-a-century AI infrastructure buildout.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The firm said it does not expect a meaningful slowdown in AI demand and believes Nvidia&#8217;s leadership position in AI infrastructure remains secure.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Morning View expects Nvidia&#8217;s AI GPU systems business to continue growing strongly through 2026 and 2027, supported by ongoing investments from major customers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, the analysis acknowledged that Google and Amazon are likely to capture a larger share of future AI hardware spending through their proprietary chips.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Morning View said it expects Nvidia&#8217;s market share of AI infrastructure spending to decline over time but remain dominant, projecting the company will hold approximately 68% market share by 2030, compared with roughly 80% today.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Morningstar&#8217;s fair value estimate for Nvidia stands at $280 per share. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The firm said a <a href=\"https:\/\/global.morningstar.com\/en-ca\/stocks\/nvidia-ai-champions-stock-is-too-cheap-ignore\">bull-case scenario<\/a> could support a valuation of $420 per share if Nvidia maintains its market share and reaches approximately $1 trillion in annual revenue by 2030.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Conversely, Morningstar estimates a downside fair value of $180 per share if AI demand disappoints or if the market shifts more aggressively toward alternative processing architectures.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nvidia stock technical analysis<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NVDA&#8217;s recent rebound appears to be losing momentum, with shares retreating toward the $206 level after failing to sustain a breakout above the $210-$212 resistance zone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Technical indicators suggest near-term weakness remains intact. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The RSI has slipped below 40, indicating deteriorating momentum, while the MACD remains in negative territory despite signs that downside pressure is easing. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Price action also continues to produce lower highs following the mid-June bounce.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Nvidia stock technical chart.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For now, the stock appears range-bound between support around $202-$206 and resistance near $210-$212. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A move above the upper end of that range would suggest buyers are regaining control, while a break below support could signal a deeper pullback. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall, the chart points to a cautious, neutral-to-bearish short-term outlook rather than a clear trend reversal.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2026\/06\/17\/nvidia-stock-remains-under-pressure-can-the-ai-giant-breakout-soon\/\">Nvidia stock remains under pressure: can the AI giant breakout soon?<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\">Invezz<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nvidia stock (NVDA) edged lower on Wednesday, continuing a recent stretch of underperformance relative to other semiconductor stocks.Shares of the chipmaker fell 0.5% to $206.91 in early trading after declining 2.4% during Tuesday\u2019s session.The weakness contrasted with gains elsewhere in the semiconductor sector.
