Nvidia shares dip as supply chain likely to come into focus after Taiwan quake

Nvidia shares dip as supply chain into focus after Taiwan quake

Nvidia shares saw a slight decline in early Wednesday trading as the chip maker’s efforts to diversify its supply chain are likely to come into focus again following a major earthquake in Taiwan.

In premarket trading, Nvidia shares dipped by 0.7% to $888.09, following a 1.0% decrease on Tuesday to close at $894.52.

The downturn for Nvidia was part of a broader trend among semiconductor stocks after the Taiwan earthquake.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), Nvidia's principal contract manufacturer, reported evacuating its factories due to the quake, although workers have since started to return. TSMC's largest manufacturing sites in Taiwan, which are crucial to Nvidia's operations, are notably located on the western side of the island, away from the earthquake's epicenter.

Nvidia reliant on TSMC for chips, CEO “confident” in diversification

Nvidia's reliance on TSMC's Taiwanese facilities is well-known — CEO Jensen Huang, however, has expressed confidence in TSMC's own geographical diversification strategy, which includes new sites in Arizona and Japan. Nvidia also has plans to broaden its chip manufacturing partnerships with Japanese firms.

Nvidia has not yet commented on the potential impacts of the earthquake on its operations as of early Wednesday.

Other semiconductor companies also saw dips in premarket trading dips, with Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) falling by 0.8% and Intel shares sliding by 4.8%, the latter suffering from recent disclosures of a $7 billion loss in its Foundry business for 2023 — an increase from a $5.2 billion loss the previous year.

Despite the setback, Nvidia shares have surged 81% year-to-date as of Tuesday's close, outperforming the S&P 500 index's 9.1% gain and the Nasdaq Composite Index's 8.2% rise during the same timeframe.

Nvidia stock forecasts on Wall Street are largely optimistic, with Cantor Fitzgerald recently raising its NVDA share price target to $1,200 from $900.

41 analysts surveyed by TipRanks as of April 3 indicated a consensus “Strong Buy” rating on NVDA stock, with 39 assigning it a “Buy” and two rating it a “Hold”. The average price target on NVDA is $983.84, according to TipRanks, indicating a potential 10% upside from the last closing price of $894.52.
