The S&P 500 was muted on Thursday as losses in tech heavyweights Microsoft and Nvidia countered earnings-led gains for Meta and Tesla, while investors parsed a slew of corporate earnings a day after the U.
Nvidia is launching its next-gen RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 GPUs today, but it’s also releasing an exciting update for existing RTX GPU owners. A new GPU driver (572.16) allows you to force DLSS 4 inside games or apps that don’t currently support it, providing improved image quality and even less VRAM usage in some cases.

Nvidia retail investors told us why they're unfazed by DeepSeek's market disruption and refusing to sellRetail investors bought a net $562 million of Nvidia stock on Monday, the largest single-day inflow in at least 10 years, VandaTrack said.
When OpenAI released ChatGPT in 2022, companies started spending billions on GPUs to train AI models. Nvidia led the market for graphics processing units (GPUs), so it was the right company at the right time to deliver monster returns to investors.
Data center technology spending skyrocketed 34 percent in 2024, according to Synergy Research Group. It is soaring past a half a trillion dollars in the first month of 2025 as banks and technology vendors vie to build out massive AI compute.
Microsoft, MSFT, CEO Satya Nadella is expected to talk about DeepSeek, Stargate, Azure, Copilot, AI, GenAI and more on the tech vendor’s 2Q 2025 earnings call.
Then there is the hype question. Since Chat GPT set off the AI gold rush in late 2022, Nvidia has been the ultimate “picks and shovel” play. But like investment in the early days of the internet, the AI boom has so far been based more on the belief that it will change everything than hard evidence that it can generate returns.
The tech giant’s revenue was up 12 percent to $69.6 billion, but investors are showing their nerves after a long boom for tech stocks.
The superstar run for Nvidia’s stock the last few years has been astonishing. So was its tumble Monday, which caused $595 billion in wealth to vanish.
In its own research, DeepSeek said it had “distilled” models from its R1 system based on other open-source systems. Unlike OpenAI’s closed systems, some models such as Meta’s Llama are open-source and freely available for use.
