Nvidia Expects Lower Revenue Due to Demand from Crypto Miners, Stock Price Falls 5%

Nvidia’s stock price fell on Friday after the US chip maker reported on Thursday revenue forecasts below Wall Street experts’ expectations. The company pointed that the bearish trend in the cryptocurrency market lowered demand for its chips used by crypto miners, which negatively influences the sales. Revenue from crypto products declined to $18 million for the second quarter, way below the figure recorded in the previous quarter at $289 million. According to Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS), the indicator “will be basically zero from here.”
