Nvidia Q1 Earnings miss as China export curbs trigger $4.5B charge
Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock fell 0.51 per cent Wednesday after reporting Q1 2025 revenue of US$44.1 billion, up 12 per cent from the previous quarter and up 69 per cent from a year ago The company beat expectations on revenue but stated that it expects to miss out on roughly US$8 billion in revenue due to losses from the ban on shipments of its H20 chips to China Nvidia's data centre segment, its largest and fastest-growing business, generated US$39.1 billion in revenue, up from US$22.5 billion a year ago Nvidia stock (NASDAQ:NVDA) last traded at US$134.81 Shares of Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) fell 0.51 per cent at Wednesday's close after reporting Q1 2025 revenue of US$44.1 billion. This result is up 12 per cent from the previous quarter and up 69 per cent from a year ago. The company beat expectations on revenue but stated in a news release that it expects to miss out on roughly US$8 billion in revenue due to losses from the ban on shipments of its H20 chips to China. The company was notified of the restrictions on April 9, 2025, which significantly impacted its ability to fulfill demand in the region. Prior to the restrictions, Nvidia had recorded US$4.6 billion in H20 sales for the quarter. However, it was unable to ship an additional US$2.5 billion in H20 revenue due to the new licensing rules, leading to excess inventory and purchase obligations. The chipmaker posted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.81 on revenue of US$44.1 billion, missing analysts' consensus estimates of $0.93 EPS on US$43.3 billion in revenue, according to Bloomberg data. Adjusted for a one-time charge related to its H20 chips, Nvidia said EPS would have reached $0.96, beating expectations. This compares to adjusted EPS of $0.61 on US$26 billion in revenue during the same quarter last year, highlighting the company's continued explosive growth in the AI and data centre markets. Nvidia's data centre segment, its largest and fastest-growing business, generated US$39.1 billion in revenue, up from US$22.5 billion a year ago. However, this figure narrowly missed Wall Street's forecast of US$39.2 billion. About Nvidia Corp. Nvidia Corp. accelerates computing to help solve computational problems.

New Viral Airbike Looks Like a Star Wars Speeder Bike
Table of Contents New Viral Airbike Looks Like a Star Wars Speeder Bike On May 4, aka Star Wars Day, Volonaut released a video of someone dressed as an Imperial scout trooper riding the company's new Airbike. Volonaut says the Airbike boasts a top speed of 124 mph and is seven times lighter than a traditional motorcycle due to the use of carbon fiber materials. Instead of propellers, Volonaut's Airbike is powered by jet propulsion, giving the vehicle a smaller footprint and greater maneuverability in tight spaces. Volonaut released a special Star Wars Day video showing its Airbike flying through a forest like the one in Return of the Jedi.

CORRECTION: Active Impact Investments closes its third fund, adding $110 million in dry powder for climate tech
More than doubled AUM in one of the toughest fundraising markets in decades VANCOUVER, BC, May 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Active Impact Investments, Canada's largest climate tech seed fund, has closed its third fund at $110 million CAD, bringing total assets under management to over $180 million. With nearly twice the size of its previous fund, Active Impact is doubling down on the Canadian market opportunity, where conditions are aligning to support climate innovation globally, and reaffirming their thesis of backing early-stage climate tech ventures that abate emissions and advance the adoption of scalable clean solutions. Fund III has already invested in Canadian-based Jetson, Skyward, RIPTK, ThinkLabs AI and U.S. based Lumo and Zeno. The fund was co-anchored by Northleaf Capital Partners through its Canadian venture capital strategy and Fondaction, and further supported by Boann, Co-operators Corporate Venture Capital Fund, Deloitte Ventures and InBC. The VC firm will add 18 more companies to Fund III, for a total of 25, primarily in Canada with some allocation in the U.S. 'Thanks to our amazing investors, we get the privilege to support 25 more insanely talented founders so they can build the future of climate. There is a massive difference between the divisive rhetoric from both sides on climate and the reality that exists in the middle,' said Mike Winterfield, Founder and Managing Partner, Active Impact Investments. 'Sadly this has led some investors to leave the space at exactly the time when the data has us most excited about huge financial outcomes. Even better, we see Canada quickly emerging as a top destination for building climate tech companies with world-class affordable talent, strong public support, effective policies like IRAP and SR&ED, and globally respected and stable leadership.' In the 2024 Global Cleantech 100 list by the Cleantech Group, 13 of the world's top private companies are based in Canada, second only to the U.S. but an outsized representation considering Canada has one-tenth the population. Additionally, Canada is increasingly attractive to the world's top tech talent with the Tech Talent Strategy that offers open work permits to H-1B visa holders in the U.S. for up to three years, with an initial cap of 10,000 applications filled in just 48 hours. A greater influx of talent to Canada is expected given the US shifting policies in relation to immigration and academia. 'We're investing in companies that deliver cost savings for their customers while achieving meaningful emissions reduction or advancing more efficient clean technology with no sacrifice in quality,' said Tom Boddez, General Partner, Active Impact Investments. 'Fund III has already made seven investments with very strong early traction. For example, Jetson here in Vancouver is a fully integrated heat pump solution that has grown rapidly and is now expanding into new markets. Zeno, which is U.S. based but has initial operations in Kenya for their electric motorbikes and battery charging network, has launched their first model and grown to a waitlist of over 10,000 qualified purchasers in a year. We are searching for outstanding founders or operators that want to build a climate company. If you've been successful with another venture and you want to build something massive in clean energy and transportation, infrastructure and carbon solutions, sustainable food and water or circular economy, we want to talk.'

3 Best Nasdaq Stocks to Buy in May
Tech stocks have struggled in the opening months of 2025. Still, several artificial intelligence (AI) pioneers look like incredible long-term buys right now. These three Nasdaq-listed stocks are leading the AI revolution in critical ways, each representing an essential pillar of this technological transformation. Despite Wall Street's optimistic outlook for big tech in 2025, most technology stocks have struggled significantly during the first four months of the year. The Nasdaq-100, which consists of the 100 largest nonfinancial companies listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange, has declined by nearly 7% year-to-date at the time of this writing. While sharp marketwide corrections can be unnerving, history consistently demonstrates that these periods often create exceptional wealth-building opportunities for investors with a long-term perspective. Currently, investors have a rare chance to acquire shares in several world-class artificial intelligence (AI) pioneers at substantial discounts to their long-term commercial potential. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » Specifically, the following three Nasdaq-listed tech giants present compelling buying opportunities after a challenging start to 2025. With shares down a staggering 19% year-to-date, Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) presents an exceptional buying opportunity amid the broader tech sell-off of 2025. This correction stands in stark contrast to Nvidia's strengthening position as the foundational hardware provider powering virtually every significant AI advancement. The company's specialized graphics processing units (GPUs) have become indispensable infrastructure for AI development, creating a competitive advantage that rivals have failed to overcome. Nvidia's dominance extends beyond traditional computing into the emerging field of physical AI, where its Jetson platform enables sophisticated robotics applications that translate digital intelligence into real-world actions. This technological leadership has translated into extraordinary financial performance, with annual revenue jumping by a staggering 383% over the prior three years (see graph below). So, for investors with the foresight to look beyond current market volatility, Nvidia's recent sell-off may represent not just a stellar buying opportunity but a potential wealth-creation inflection point. After all, the AI titan will undoubtedly be a primary beneficiary of this unstoppable tech transformation, opening a multitrillion-dollar commercial opportunity for the company in the decades ahead. In stark contrast to the broader tech market decline, Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR) has surged a remarkable 52% year-to-date, significantly outperforming virtually all of its major tech peers. The stock's ability to swim against the current, so to speak, is a testament to Palantir's unique positioning at the intersection of data analytics, AI, and mission-critical operations. Its demonstrated strength in a soft market serves to underscore why its stock is a standout buy this month. Palantir's software platforms, Gotham, Foundry, and Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP), give organizations the ability to integrate massive datasets and deploy AI capabilities across their operations. What distinguishes Palantir is its proven ability to transform raw, disparate data into actionable intelligence through AI-powered analysis. Furthermore, the company has established deep relationships with government agencies and defense departments worldwide, providing a stable revenue foundation. Meanwhile, its commercial business has accelerated dramatically as enterprises across industries recognize the value of Palantir's tools for implementing practical AI solutions. With its established government relationships, expanding commercial presence, and purpose-built AI deployment platform, Palantir represents a different but equally compelling AI investment compared to hardware-focused companies like Nvidia. As a result, this red-hot tech stock should appeal to investors seeking exposure to the software and implementation side of the AI revolution even after rising in price. Among broader tech market volatility, ASML Holding (NASDAQ: ASML) has experienced a modest 5.2% year-to-date decline. This pullback belies ASML's critical position in the AI value chain as the sole manufacturer of the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machines required to produce the world's most advanced semiconductor chips. What makes ASML uniquely valuable is its monopoly on the equipment necessary for manufacturing the advanced chips that power AI applications. While short-term concerns about quarterly orders have weighed on the stock this year, the long-term demand signals remain extraordinarily compelling. Major chipmakers like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company and SK Hynix are significantly increasing their capital expenditures to meet the exploding demand for AI-capable semiconductors, with TSMC raising its spending by 34% and SK Hynix reportedly boosting its 2025 investment by 30% to $20 billion. With this backdrop in mind, ASML's soft start to the year looks like a tremendous buying opportunity for investors who want exposure to a foundational AI infrastructure player. Ever feel like you missed the boat in buying the most successful stocks? Then you'll want to hear this. On rare occasions, our expert team of analysts issues a 'Double Down' stock recommendation for companies that they think are about to pop. If you're worried you've already missed your chance to invest, now is the best time to buy before it's too late. And the numbers speak for themselves: Nvidia: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2009, you'd have $282,717!* Apple: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2008, you'd have $40,044!* Netflix: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2004, you'd have $607,048!* Right now, we're issuing 'Double Down' alerts for three incredible companies, available when you join , and there may not be another chance like this anytime soon.*Stock Advisor returns as of April 28, 2025 George Budwell has positions in Nvidia, Palantir Technologies, and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing.
