<\/div>\n

Shares of Nvidia (NVDA) remained under pressure on Wednesday, extending recent losses despite blockbuster earnings and an aggressive long-term expansion plan tied to Taiwan\u2019s semiconductor ecosystem.<\/p>\n

The stock fell around 2% to roughly $209.26 in early trading after closing lower Tuesday for its third consecutive losing session<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The weakness came even after Nvidia once again delivered results that exceeded Wall Street expectations and reinforced its dominant position at the center of the artificial intelligence boom.<\/p>\n

According to FactSet data, Nvidia has now surpassed analyst expectations on both revenue and operating income for 14 consecutive quarters.<\/p>\n

The company reported first-quarter revenue growth of 85% year-over-year and guided for even faster expansion in the current quarter.<\/p>\n

Still, investors appeared reluctant to aggressively chase the stock higher following its enormous multi-year rally and market capitalization above $5 trillion.<\/p>\n

Nvidia doubles down on Taiwan<\/h2>\n

Chief executive Jensen Huang attempted to reinforce Nvidia\u2019s long-term AI infrastructure ambitions during an event in Taipei marking the launch of the company\u2019s new Taiwan campus.<\/p>\n

Huang said Nvidia plans to spend as much as $150 billion annually with Taiwanese suppliers, up from roughly $100 billion currently.<\/p>\n

He did not specify a timeline for the increase.<\/p>\n

The announcement highlighted Nvidia\u2019s deepening reliance on Taiwan\u2019s semiconductor ecosystem, particularly its relationship with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Nvidia\u2019s most critical manufacturing partner.<\/p>\n

Huang is in Taiwan ahead of Computex, the island\u2019s flagship technology conference that has increasingly become a showcase for global AI infrastructure development.<\/p>\n

Nvidia\u2019s spending commitment also arrives amid growing geopolitical concerns surrounding Taiwan and the global semiconductor supply chain.<\/p>\n

Those concerns intensified after Donald Trump recently suggested a pending $14 billion US arms package for Taiwan could potentially be used as leverage in negotiations with China following his summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping.<\/p>\n

Valuation debate intensifies<\/h2>\n

Despite Nvidia\u2019s operational strength, investor sentiment has become increasingly cautious following the stock\u2019s explosive gains over the past two years.<\/p>\n

The post-earnings pullback has left Nvidia trading at a forward price-to-earnings multiple slightly above 22 times, according to FactSet data.<\/p>\n

That remains well below many semiconductor peers, including Intel at roughly 95 times forward earnings and Advanced Micro Devices near 47 times.<\/p>\n

Investors use P\/E multiples to gauge a stock\u2019s valuation relative to its anticipated future earnings.<\/p>\n

With the growth of online trading apps<\/a>, tracking such metrics has become significantly easier and more accessible to market participants.<\/p>\n

Analysts increasingly argue Nvidia\u2019s valuation no longer fully reflects the company\u2019s dominant role in AI infrastructure and accelerating compute demand.<\/p>\n

The average Wall Street price target on Nvidia has climbed to roughly $294, while about 93% of analysts covering the stock maintain Buy-equivalent ratings.<\/p>\n

Several major firms, including Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Needham, and Baird, recently raised their price targets following the company\u2019s earnings report.<\/p>\n

Even so, the muted stock reaction suggests investors may now be demanding evidence that Nvidia can sustain its extraordinary growth trajectory as competition intensifies across the AI semiconductor landscape.
