UNLOCK OFFER- Nvidia stock turned south on Tuesday as risk-off rules.
- Wall Street plunged to fresh November lows at the end of the month.
- NVDA is set to end the year at all-time highs.
Update: Nvidia (NVDA) fell 2.10% on Wednesday, correcting from four-day highs to settle at $326.76. Shares of semiconductors star Nvidia bore the brunt of the broader market sell-off after Nasdaq Composite Index (NASDAQ) tumbled 1.55% on US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s hawkish comments. Powell underscored inflationary concerns, adding that speeding up of tapering could be on the table at the central bank’s December meeting. Adding to the dour mood, the Omicron covid variant concerns intensified on Moderna Inc.’s warnings against the vaccine efficacy.
Nvidia surged higher on Monday as risk-on sentiment bought up most stocks, but particular attention was paid to clear 2021 winners. This was not a case of Cyber Monday bargain hunting, rather investors overlooked stocks that have been struggling and instead bought up some already high-flying names. Nvidia is already nearly up 140% year to date, but that did not deter investors piling into the name on Monday. Laggard stocks were punished, Peloton (PTON) for example slumped over 4% on Monday. This was a time for risk to be taken but only into strong stocks. Momentum creates more momentum.
Nvidia (NVDA) stock news
Nvidia announced on Monday that it will participate at Deutsche Bank's Auto Tech Conference on Thursday, December 9, while the company will also attend JPMorgan's Tech/Auto Forum on Wednesday, January 5.

Nvidia (NVDA) stock forecast
The drive to end the year above $350 is still on track after Monday's powerful recovery. We should also take some credit for identifying the $310 support last week. This is where Nvidia bottomed out on Thursday and Friday. It is the top of the flag formation from the daily chart further down. From the 30-minute chart, we can see the concentration of volume from $328 to $310. Breaking out of this range then sees the next high volume zone around the $302 to $294 range.
The $310 level from the daily chart is holding the current potential for a move to $350. Once below, all bets are off, and the stock becomes neutral in the short term. The bearish divergence in the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a bit concerning as we would like to see this broken to confirm any move to $350.
