Nvidia is set to offer a peek at its new next-generation AI chip at the company\u2019s annual developer conference on Monday (March 18).<\/span><\/p>\n Around 16,000 people are expected to attend the event, and chipmaker <\/span>CEO Jensen Huang<\/span><\/a> will unveil new flagship products.<\/span><\/p>\n In late February, <\/span>Nvidia\u2019s market value<\/span><\/a> surpassed $2 trillion, positioning it just $400 billion short of overtaking Apple as the second-most valuable company on Wall Street, with <\/span>Microsoft leading the pack<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Wall Street anticipates a rise of 81% in its revenue this year, reaching $110 billion, as businesses aggressively purchase its premium chips in large quantities to drive chatbots, image generators, and <\/span>various AI systems<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Dell Technologies COO Jeff Clarke revealed the GPU earlier this month. Its new B100 chip<\/a> is thought to be at the center of the event and i<\/span>s set to consume 1000 watts \u2014 an increase of 42% from its predecessor, the H100. <\/span><\/p>\n The supply of Nvidia\u2019s existing AI chips has been unable to meet the overwhelming demand, resulting in developers enduring months-long waits to use AI-optimized computers available through cloud providers.<\/p>\n Bank of America analyst Vivek Arya expects the price of B100 products to be 10% to 30% higher than the popular H100 system, reported<\/span><\/a> the Wall Street Journal.<\/span><\/p>\n Despite its success, the chip maker did see a 4.7% fall in its stock price<\/span><\/a> in February, with claims that investors weren\u2019t confident the company could sustain this level of growth in the short term.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe biggest concern is the numbers have just gotten so big, so quickly, you just worry they can\u2019t last,\u201d Bernstein analyst Stacy Rasgon told<\/span><\/a> Reuters. \u201cThe more new products they\u2019ve got coming out at higher performance and higher prices, the more runway they have.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The price of the stock is still at an all-time high, having climbed 1783% across the past five years.<\/p>\n However, the price drop was not limited to Nvidia. Rival Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) was down 1.3% in premarket trading, and Intel was down 0.4% at the same time.<\/p>\nWhy is Nvidia\u2019s stock falling?<\/h2>\n
