That’s the question on a lot of investors’ minds Wednesday as they wait for Nvidia to report its earnings for the fourth quarter of 2023 after the market closes. The California-based chipmaker has quickly become the third largest company on Wall Street, behind Microsoft and Apple, largely because of its critical role in the artificial intelligence boom — Nvidia makes up nearly all of the AI chipmaking market in the United States. But with a market cap of $1.7 trillion and a year-to-date return of about 40% (the best in the S&P 500), the company has a lot to live up to. Investors expect Nvidia to report earnings of $4.59 a share and $20.378 billion in revenue, up from just $6.05 billion a year before.
