Nvidia and Walmart earnings may decide Wall Street direction as AI cheers and inflation tests consumers

Nvidia and Walmart earnings may decide Wall Street direction as AI cheers and inflation tests consumers

Wall Street is coming off another leg higher, but investors say next week’s earnings could test whether the rally is broad or fragile. Nvidia reports Wednesday, with its AI-driven surge watched as a read on data-center demand and whether rivals are eroding its lead. On Thursday, Walmart and other retailers including Home Depot, Target and TJX will reveal how inflation-pressured consumers are coping, after rising energy costs and hot price data. Analysts call retail resilience the key.

Democrats blast Trump stock trades as corruption with Nvidia deals amid China lobbying allegations

Democrats are accusing US President Donald Trump of corruption after documents disclosed major stock transactions conducted in his name, including millions worth of Nvidia shares tied to advanced AI chips. Senator Elizabeth Warren says the timing is troubling, especially amid allegations Trump lobbied China’s Xi Jinping during a trip that included Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. Eric Trump denies wrongdoing, saying the family’s assets sit in a blind trust. The disclosed deals total over $200 million and name companies such as Amazon and Apple.

Trump’s CEO entourage courts Beijing but leaves with few clear business wins as summit ends

Trump’s CEO entourage courts Beijing but leaves with few clear business wins as summit ends

A high-profile group of U.S. corporate leaders, including Apple, Meta, Boeing, Cargill, and Goldman Sachs executives, traveled to Beijing with President Donald Trump for a China leadership summit. While officials offered red-carpet treatment and optimism, analysts said the visit’s goal was more about creating political “guardrails” than landing massive deals. Concrete progress appears limited: Boeing orders reportedly involve 200 jets, below past expectations, and permission for Nvidia’s H200 AI chip remains unresolved despite signs the trip could help.

Nvidia and Boeing tumble after Trump China summit headlines as China approvals remain unconfirmed

Nvidia and Boeing tumble after Trump China summit headlines as China approvals remain unconfirmed

On May 15, 2026, Nvidia and Boeing shares fell sharply despite Trump’s Beijing summit headlines announcing a potential 200-plane Boeing order and H200 chip clearance for Nvidia. Nvidia slid 3.83% and Boeing 2.86%, while the PHLX Semiconductor Index dropped 3.55%. The catch: Beijing never formally confirmed the Boeing order, and Nvidia’s H200 export clearance lacks Chinese approval. Investors had priced in a more certain, larger deal, so the gap between announcement and confirmation triggered “buy the rumor, sell the news” selling.
