Intel shares were up 5% in the trading session. The post Why Nvidia earnings are particularly significant for Intel, AMD stock appeared first on Invezz</div>

Nvidia will release its FY27 Q1 earnings report after the US stock market closes this Wednesday. This is not just a single quarter's performance, but a crucial battle in the global debate over "the golden age of AI vs. a repeat of the AI ​​bubble." Nvidia and Micron alone have contributed over 30% of the S&amp;P 500's year-to-date gains, and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index has surged nearly 70% since the end of March—the market has pushed the AI ​​narrative to its extreme. Will this earnings report crown the story, or prick the bubble?

Nvidia Eyes $6 Trillion Market Cap — Can Q1 Earnings Deliver?

NVIDIA reports after Wednesday's US close, delivering its FY27 Q1 scorecard. Consensus pegs revenue near 78B and Data Center around 73B—that's the floor; the real fireworks sit in Q2 guide: blow past 90B or settle near 85B? Wall Street has already pushed the AI narrative to a 6T market cap, with NVIDIA alone driving a sizeable chunk of this year's S&amp;P 500 gains. This print decides whether the AI golden age gets crowned, or whether the first crack in the valuation bubble finally shows.
