# Nvidia tops estimates with $80B buyback but market stays cautious

Earnings beat met cool: Nvidia posted surging revenue and profits, but its shares barely moved as investors digested lofty valuations and slight misses in certain revenue lines. Massive cash returns: The company hiked its dividend from 1 cent to 25 cents per share and authorized $80 billion in share buybacks, signaling confidence but also possible growth moderation. Market context: Results came alongside volatile oil prices, changing Fed rate hike bets, and ongoing U.S.-Iran negotiations over the Strait of Hormuz.
