Nvidia shares pointed higher in premarket trading Friday after a sharp selloff earlier in the week. The rebound comes as investors assess the fallout from Jensen Huang’s departure.
The chipmaker’s stock had fallen sharply on concerns about leadership. Huang’s exit marks a major transition for the company.
Next week brings two key tests for the AI trade. Nvidia reports quarterly earnings, and Anthropic holds its IPO.
The earnings report will show whether demand for AI chips remains strong. Investors will watch data center revenue closely.
Anthropic’s IPO offers a read on investor appetite for AI companies. The listing could set a benchmark for the sector.
Both events could move markets beyond Nvidia. AI-linked stocks have swung widely on shifting sentiment.
Trading remains volatile as investors weigh growth prospects against leadership changes. Nvidia’s rebound will depend on next week’s results.
