Nvidia Sees 85% One-Year Gains but Lags Caterpillar’s 185% Surge
Nvidia has delivered 85% returns over the past year but trails Caterpillar’s 185% surge and far exceeds Intel’s trailing 12-month revenue of $53bn with its own $188bn. Eight consecutive quarters of AI-driven revenue growth underpin Nvidia’s performance even as its stock recently retreated on valuation concerns.
1. Return Comparison
Over the past year Nvidia shares have risen 85%, outperforming many semiconductor peers but falling well short of Caterpillar’s 185% return over the same period.
2. Revenue and Market Position
Nvidia has posted eight consecutive quarters of revenue growth, delivering $188 billion in trailing-12-month sales compared to Intel’s $53 billion, driven by strong demand for its AI-optimized GPUs.
3. Stock Retreat and Valuation
Following rapid gains, Nvidia stock recently pulled back as investors reassessed its stretched valuation and near-term growth expectations.
