Nvidia shares soar to an all-time high; eyes Micron earnings for next cues

Time of India5 hours ago

Nvidia shares soared to an all-time high of $152.97 on Wednesday, surpassing its previous record close of $149.43 set in January. The 2.6% surge in early trading reflected growing investor confidence in the chipmaker's leadership in the booming artificial intelligence (AI) sector.
The rally was partly driven by market anticipation ahead of Micron Technology's quarterly earnings, due after market hours. Micron manufactures high-bandwidth memory (HBM) chips, a key component in Nvidia's advanced AI accelerators.
Strong results from Micron are expected to signal continued demand across the AI hardware supply chain, further reinforcing Nvidia's bullish outlook.
Beyond hardware, Nvidia's growth is being propelled by its expanding software and cloud services business.
Its DGX Cloud platform — which allows organisations to run large-scale AI workloads on Nvidia's infrastructure — has seen adoption across industries such as healthcare, finance, and manufacturing. This marks a strategic shift, positioning Nvidia as not just a chipmaker but a full-stack AI solutions provider.
Investor optimism has remained strong since Nvidia's impressive first-quarter earnings in late May, which beat analyst estimates and highlighted robust revenue growth.

The company's performance remains resilient despite geopolitical headwinds, including US export restrictions on chip sales to China, once a major market.
The focus now turns to Micron's earnings, expected to provide broader insight into the strength and sustainability of the AI hardware boom.
Earlier this month, Nvidia briefly became the world's most valuable publicly listed company, overtaking Microsoft. It has been trading market-cap leadership with Microsoft and Apple since mid-2023. The latest surge reestablishes Nvidia's dominance, underscoring its rapid ascent as a key force in the AI revolution.
As global demand for AI infrastructure continues to rise, Nvidia's position at the heart of the technology ecosystem appears increasingly unshakable.

MSEDCL hikes tariffs by up to 3% for 100+unit users

Mumbai: The Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) has come out with the tariff orders for state power utility firm MSEDCL which shows a marginal increase in tariff from 0.5 to 3% for low and high-end residential consumers having monthly electricity consumption over 100 units. In the 0-100 consumption category, there is relief as the orders showed a drop of 9% in tariff this financial year. The new tariffs will come into effect from July 1. MSEDCL tariffs continue to be the highest in the state as compared to BEST, Tata Power and Adani Electricity.

"In the past, we witnessed a minimum 10% hike in tariff and this year we have changed the scenario. In the next five years, tariff is set to drop furthermore as we are procuring more green power through solar, hydro etc, saving Rs 66,000 crore in power purchase," Chandra said, adding that tariffs will not go up next five years for all including industry ensuring more industries come to Maharashtra. Tariffs will drop eventually for all residential users till 2029-30. For example, in the 301-500 units consumption category, there is a drop of 13%, 26% for 0-100 units etc. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Cervecería Nacional CFD: Calcula cuánto podrías ganar invirtiendo solo $100 Empieza a invertir Inscríbete ahora Undo "There is an 80% discount in solar hours in the residential category for smart meters and that's how all monthly bills will be lower than existing," Chandra said. Experts said that the last tariff announced by MERC in March had a 4-13% drop in rates for MSEDCL which was better than the present tariff structure. "The last tariff order was challenged by MSEDCL which filed a review petition citing discrepancies and the order was stayed for two months," he said. Another feature of the order included an additional 10% TOD discount for daytime electricity use for residential consumers with smart meters and incentives for residential consumers generating solar energy.

No data with MCG on 34 defaulters with 97cr tax dues

Gurgaon: An audit of the MCG joint commissioner's office found that the corporation has no records of 34 property owners who have not paid taxes amounting to nearly Rs 97.2 crore. Without the details of the owners, there is little action that the corporation can take to collect this property tax, the principal accountant general pointed out in the report for the audit carried out this Feb. "In the absence of the names of the property owners, chances of serving notices and initiating legal action to such property owners were negligible. There might be very bleak chances of recovery of outstanding property tax from these properties," the report said. It added that "considering the financial interest of MCG", authorities should take up the matter with revenue officials for identifying the property owners. MCG, the report said, had "failed to take action" to recover taxes from defaulters, leading to accumulation of dues.

Asked about the report, an MCG official told TOI on Wednesday that the corporation is trying to "retrieve" the records of the defaulters. Other than stamp duty and advertisement fees, property tax is a key revenue source for the corporation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Investire è più facile che mai BG SAXO Scopri di più Undo In the 2024-25 fiscal year, MCG collected Rs 232.9 crore in property taxes. It has projected income from property tax at Rs 275 crore this fiscal year. According to the audit, there are 120 property tax defaulters, each of whom owes the corporation more than Rs 1 crore. In total, dues from unpaid property tax stand at Rs 280.6 crore, other than Rs 18.4 crore fire tax and Rs 35.6 crore in development charges. Kuldeep Yadav, a city councillor, said it was "unacceptable" that such a massive sum of taxes has not been collected. "The audit report's findings are a scathing rebuke of MCG's inability to fulfil its basic responsibilities. It is clear that MCG has been asleep at the wheel, allowing tax evaders to go unpunished while the public suffers. Heads should roll over this scandalous dereliction of duty," he said.

ONGC clears major hurdle in Sivasagar blowout control effort

Dibrugarh: Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) on Wednesday achieved a critical milestone in its effort to control the ongoing blowout at the Rudrasagar well in Sivasagar, which has been spewing gas uncontrollably for 14 days since the incident began on June 12. In a step forward, an extra-long boom crane and a 40-tonne crane worked in tandem to remove 42 tubing stands from the derrick, clearing the way for the safe extraction of the rig base from the wellhead. With the rig base now removed, ONGC will proceed to dismantle the blowout preventer and install a capping stack — a vital phase in sealing the well. The company cautioned that gas discharge may temporarily intensify during this step, but reassured the public that the emissions are non-toxic, with volumes significantly reduced and posing no threat beyond a 500-metre radius. In a statement, ONGC said the operation is being executed with utmost precision and layered safety protocols, including continuous water blanketing to suppress gas emissions. It is collaborating with CUDD Well Control, a US-based firm specialist in well intervention, to ensure a seamless operation. Rising water levels in the Dikhow river have posed logistical challenges, threatening to delay equipment deployment. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo In response, ONGC teams are repositioning high-capacity pumps to maintain uninterrupted support for critical safety systems. "Ambient air quality continues to be rigorously monitored, with all key. parameters well within permissible limits. Medical and relief camps also remain operational, ensuring the well-being of personnel and nearby communities. ONGC reiterates its commitment to operational excellence, environmental responsibility, and community safety, and continues to work with determination to bring this complex operation to a safe and successful conclusion," ONGC in a statement said. As the operation enters its most delicate phase, focus now shifts to the successful installation of the capping stack — marking a decisive step toward ending the blowout.
