Why the Friday bounce failed

Nvidia opened Friday near $170, up from Thursday’s close, then sold off for most of the session. It touched $158.39 before closing at $162.85. Yahoo Finance reported that the stock “extended declines on Friday”, the second session after Huang’s resignation.

Two things weighed on it. First, more downgrades. HSBC cut Nvidia to Hold on Friday and lowered its target to $170 from $365; analyst Frank Lee said investor confidence had been “shaken” (Yahoo Finance). Yahoo Finance counted at least ten Wall Street analysts who have moved the stock from Buy to Hold since the news. Second, the story behind the exit kept developing. Reuters reported on Thursday, citing two people familiar with the matter, a further relationship between Huang and an Nvidia employee (via CNBC). These are allegations in news reports. Nvidia has not given a reason for the resignation, and the board has not published findings. Our report on the latest allegations sets out what has been reported.

The wider market did not help. Friday’s US producer price data kept a December Federal Reserve rate increase close to fully priced, and memory stocks fell harder than Nvidia: Sandisk lost 5.59 percent and Micron 2.52 percent.

What Tuesday’s results have to show

The consensus is for earnings per share of $2.47 on revenue of $109.2 billion (Yahoo Finance). The numbers matter less than usual this quarter. Investors will listen for whether Kress repeats the outlook Nvidia gave under Huang, whether hyperscaler orders have changed since the leadership news, and what the board says about the search.

Not every analyst has turned cautious. Wedbush’s Matthew Bryson wrote on Friday: “We again expect NVDA to exceed its forecast and to guide FQ4 above Street” (Yahoo Finance). Cantor Fitzgerald’s CJ Muse cut his target to $250 from $350 on Thursday but kept an Overweight rating (CNBC). Stifel is at $205 with a Buy, Baird at $200 with a Neutral rating.

Options traders expect a large move. Bloomberg options data put the expected move on the report at about 6.7 percent (via Investing.com), while Benzinga measured about 9.6 percent at Thursday’s close, the largest before a Nvidia report since August 2024. The gap comes from different expiries and measurement dates. Applied to Friday’s close, that is a swing of roughly $11 to $16 either way, or about $147 to $178.

The CEO search

Nvidia’s board will consider internal and external candidates (Nvidia 8-K). On Friday, prediction markets Kalshi and Polymarket gave Nvidia’s Ian Buck about a 40 percent chance of the job, and the Financial Times reported Arm’s Rene Haas among the names discussed (Yahoo Finance).

Nvidia stock: bull, base and bear for the week ahead

Scenario NVDA What has to happen Anchor
Bear $149 A weak outlook on Tuesday or new allegations send the stock back to Thursday’s panic low. Thursday’s intraday low of $148.80; about 8.6 percent below $162.85.
Base $158-$174 The results meet expectations and the stock stays inside this week’s range. Friday’s low of $158.39 and Wednesday’s close of $173.73.
Bull $187 Kress delivers a beat and an outlook above the Street, and the stock recovers the whole slide. The $186.64 close of 6 November, before the board probe was announced; about 14.6 percent above $162.85.

The bear case sits below the current price. These are reference levels measured from Friday’s close, not forecasts. The bull level is beyond the options-implied move, so it needs a clearly better report than the market expects. Every analyst target quoted above, from HSBC’s $170 up, sits above Friday’s close.

What to watch

  • Monday 16 November: the first session after a weekend of coverage. $158.39, Friday’s low, is the first level below.
  • Tuesday 17 November, 8:30 a.m. ET: US October retail sales. Forecasts range from flat (Admiral Markets) to 0.2 percent (Newsquawk).
  • Tuesday 17 November, about 1:20 p.m. Pacific: Nvidia’s fiscal Q3 results, then the call at 2:00 p.m. Pacific.
  • Wednesday 18 November, 2:00 p.m. ET: minutes of the Fed’s October meeting.
  • Thursday 19 November: the Anthropic listing, the next test of appetite for AI shares.

Quick take: Nvidia closed the week at $162.85, down 12.75 percent, after Friday’s early bounce faded. Tuesday’s results are Colette Kress’s first as interim CEO; the Street expects $2.47 a share on $109.2 billion of revenue, and options price a move of roughly 7 to 10 percent. $149 is the downside reference, $187 the upside.
