<div id="readability-page-1"><div><div>Nvidia NVDA and its semiconductor peers gained on Wednesday after Oracle’s ORCL upbeat quarterly results and strong cloud guidance signaled surging artificial intelligence infrastructure demand that could boost graphics processing unit sales.Investors were reminded of Nvidia’s breakout performance in May 2023, when the company forecast $11 billion in quarterly revenue, 53% above Wall Street estimates, kicking off multiple quarters of soaring sales and profits. However, the latest results indicate that growth is starting to decelerate.While sales still beat analyst expectations, it marked Nvidia’s narrowest beat in nine quarters, sending shares down about 6% immediately following the announcement.Also Read: Nvidia Launches New Chip To Boost AI Coding And Video ToolsNvidia faces two major hurdles: scale and supply. As revenue grows, maintaining breakneck gains gets harder, and supply-chain limits, since Taiwan Semiconductor TSM produces nearly all its chips, add structural pressure, the Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday.CEO Jensen Huang admitted supply is “constrained” but said Nvidia is still growing fast.
