NVDA Q1 just dropped. Revenue USD 81.6 billion (+85% YoY). Adjusted EPS +140% YoY. Data center revenue USD 75.2 billion (~92% of total). Every line beat consensus. Q2 guidance: USD 91 billion, and that excludes any China data center revenue. The board also added USD 80 billion to the buyback authorization and lifted the quarterly dividend by 24x.&nbsp;On paper, all green. But the stock dropped over 3% after-hours before clawing back. The market has gotten used to bigger NVDA beats, and a 3.1% top-line surprise wasn't enough this time. Layer on repricing noise from a revised reporting framework, and at the USD 6 trillion mark, the disagreement is real.&nbsp;Continued AI king run, or first real high-altitude correction?

NVDA Beats Every Line Yet Stock Wobbles?

With Nvidia’s Q1 earnings approaching, the markets are once again questioning whether the trillion-dollar AI rally will continue. Nvidia’s financial results is likely to influence investor sentiment across the entire AI ecosystem, including companies like Alphabet that are aggressively investing in AI infrastructure and cloud capabilities.Yet, I decided to invest in Alphabet because its long-term strength extends beyond AI hype alone. Its core businesses (Search, YouTube, Cloud, and advertising) continue to generate enormous cash flows, and Google remains Alphabet’s largest competitive advantage as a global digital platform.

As of 14 May 2026, Nvidia has surpassed silver in market value to become the world’s second-largest asset by market value, at around $5.5T. This reflects how strongly the market believes that AI will shape the future economy. If AI adoption and earnings growth continue increasing, Nvidia hitting $250-$300 this year may no longer seem impossible. Let’s see how this goes!

LongBridge’s daily report indicated that my portfolio had a high beta and recommended adding defensive stocks.Hence, I added XLP, a consumer staples ETF, to reduce the portfolio’s overall systematic risk and volatility, while improving resilience during periods of market uncertainty and economic downturns.I personally find the daily reports quite useful, and I recommend all of you to read them!
