NVIDIA shares are trading near $230 amid a strong rebound driven by the company's authorization of a record $150 billion increase to its share repurchase program, bringing total capacity to $235 billion and signaling robust free cash flow from AI data center sales. The move follows August's fiscal Q2 results, which delivered $96.2 billion in revenue—more than double year-over-year—with data center growth exceeding 100 percent and margins expanding. Traders are monitoring broader semiconductor demand signals, including Micron's upcoming September 30 earnings release as a proxy for memory pricing and hyperscaler spending. With the next NVIDIA earnings not due until mid-November and the stock holding within its 52-week range near recent highs, weekly closes will hinge on sustained AI capital expenditure trends and any shifts in Treasury yields or risk appetite.
