Nvidia's Earnings Disappoint as Market Braces for Slower Growth
27 Aug
Summary
- Nvidia's results underwhelm, signaling end of 100%+ growth
- Multiple economic data points to be released before market open
- Fed Governor Waller, a key Fed Chair contender, to speak
On Thursday, August 28, 2025, the market is bracing for a reaction to Nvidia's latest earnings results, which have disappointed investors. The tech giant's performance signals that the days of 100% and 200% growth are now behind it, with its guidance projecting the slowest revenue growth in the past 10 quarters.
Alongside Nvidia's underwhelming numbers, the market will also be closely watching multiple economic data points set to be released before the opening bell. This includes the first revision of Q2 GDP data and the latest initial jobless claims. Additionally, Fed Governor Christopher Waller, one of the two governors who dissented against the FOMC consensus during the July policy meeting, is scheduled to deliver a speech earlier in the day. Waller is also considered a key contender for the next Fed Chair position.
The other major trigger for the market will come on Friday, August 29, when the Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE) inflation figures for July are reported. Estimates suggest the core PCE could rise 2.9% year-on-year, the fastest pace in five months, further away from the Federal Reserve's 2% target.
