The company delivered adjusted EPS of $1.87, more than doubling from a year earlier, while revenue climbed 85% year-on-year to a record $81.6bn.<\/p>\n<p>Data Center remained the main engine: sales reached $75.2bn, also a record, and rose 92% from the prior-year period, supported by ongoing appetite for GPUs. The update also referenced positive revisions to EPS expectations for the current and next fiscal year, and the stock carries a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy).<\/p>\n<h3>Record-Breaking Data Center Growth Drives Outlook<\/h3>\n<p>With these record-breaking results now behind us, we see a clear path forward for the stock. The sustained 92% growth in the Data Center segment confirms the AI infrastructure buildout is not slowing down. This fundamental strength should provide a tailwind for the stock price over the next several weeks.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve seen implied volatility on NVIDIA options drop significantly since the earnings release, settling from pre-announcement highs of over 75% to a more stable 48% now. This post-earnings volatility crush makes buying options, rather than selling them, a more attractive strategy for capturing upward movement. Cheaper premiums allow for better leverage on our bullish outlook.<\/p>\n<h3>Market Sentiment and Options Strategies<\/h3>\n<p>The broader market supports this view, with the Nasdaq 100 up 3.5% this month and overall tech spending forecasts remaining robust. Recent data shows enterprise AI investment commitments for the second half of 2026 are already 15% higher than last year. This macro environment confirms that the demand drivers for NVIDIA&#8217;s products are secure.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, we are looking at buying call spreads expiring in late June and July 2026 to capitalize on this expected momentum with a defined risk profile. Another approach we favor is selling out-of-the-money puts to collect premium, taking advantage of the still-elevated volatility compared to the broader market. We must watch for any changes in capital expenditure plans from major cloud providers as a key indicator.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nvidia posted record revenue and data center growth; easing volatility supports bullish call spreads and put-selling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":38,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-47672","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-live-updates"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"featured_image_src":null,"featured_image_src_square":null,"author_info":{"display_name":"josephine","author_link":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/author\/josephine\/"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47672","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/38"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=47672"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47672\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=47672"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=47672"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vtmarketsglobal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=47672"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
