NVIDIA (NVDA - Free Report) dampened investors’ mood after it lowered its fourth-quarter fiscal 2019 revenue guidance amid deteriorating macro fundamentals, especially in China. The stock tumbled nearly 14% in Monday’s trading session.
NVIDIA now expects revenues to come in $2.20 billion (+/-2%), down from previous guidance of $2.70 billion (+/-2%). This indicates 24% year-over -year revenue decline. Weak demand for its gaming chips in China and lower-than-expected datacenter sales have taken a toll on the quarter’s revenue. The company also reduced its gross margin guidance by 650 basis points (bps) from 62.5% to 56% (see: all the Technology ETFs here).
Market Impact
The news led to a sell-off in the broader sector, pushing many chip stocks lower. In particular, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD - Free Report) dropped 8%, Mellanox Technologies fell more than 3% and Micron Technologies (MU - Free Report) slid 2%. The PHLX Semiconductor Index fell more than 2% on the day.
NVIDIA’s cut in revenue guidance signaled more challenges for the microchip industry and added to concerns about the China slowdown impacting the technology sector. Last week, Intel (INTC - Free Report) warned about slowing global data center growth amid increasing macroeconomic uncertainty while Apple (AAPL - Free Report) and many of its suppliers cautioned that smart device demand in emerging markets is slowing down (read: Will Intel's Weak Guidance Disrupt Semiconductor ETFs' Rally?).
Depressed by NVIDIA’s revenue warning, analysts started to cut the target price for the stock. The stock currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) and solid Growth Score of B. It belongs to a bottom-ranked Zacks Industry (bottom 4%).
