Nvidia, a key provider of AI infrastructure chips, reported record first-quarter results with revenue up 85% year-over-year to $81.6 billion and net income more than tripling to $58.3 billion. Despite these strong figures, the company's shares declined in after-hours trading. Analysts suggest investors have become accustomed to Nvidia's exceptional performance and are concerned about increasing competition. Nvidia, currently the world's most valuable company, attributes its sales growth to its data center division and anticipates significant future spending on AI infrastructure. CEO Jensen Huang stated that demand is growing rapidly due to the emergence of "agentic AI."
