Earnings anticipation rises as Nvidia capitalizes on AI infrastructure surge

Nvidia is set to report its first-quarter earnings on May 20, attracting significant market focus as the company continues to benefit from the global AI infrastructure boom. Earlier in May, Nvidia announced collaborations with IREN and Corning to accelerate deployment of up to 5 gigawatts of AI infrastructure and expand U.S. production of advanced optical connectivity for next-generation AI data centers. The company also disclosed fourth-quarter revenue of $68.1 billion, a 73% increase from the previous year, reflecting robust data center demand and ongoing enterprise AI adoption.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes that Nvidia’s sustained price above all key moving averages points to strong short-term buy momentum, but also highlights overbought conditions. He stresses the risk of overheating as multiple oscillators show stretched readings while daily volatility remains high. Kharitonov is cautious about the bullish sentiment fueled by recent partnerships and AI infrastructure demand. He warns that investor excitement might not account for elevated technical risks. "I see strong technicals, but the market is clearly overextended — a sharp pullback is only one negative earnings surprise away."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, believes Nvidia remains at the forefront of the AI infrastructure wave and continues to attract institutional attention. He sees the bullish structure as intact, with robust revenue growth supporting the positive outlook. Karapetjanc points to the strong momentum from the company’s strategic partnerships and optimistic market sentiment ahead of earnings. He is confident that multiple technical and fundamental forces are aligning in favor of further growth. "The market offers multiple setups for bulls — further upside towards $228.81 looks likely as Nvidia leads AI innovation."

Overbought signals intensify as momentum indicators sustain rally

Nvidia is trading above its 20-day ($203.15), 50-day ($188.64), and 200-day ($184.73) simple moving averages, confirming a bullish structure across short-, medium-, and long-term horizons. The nearest dynamic support is seen at the Ichimoku Kijun level of $194.63, while resistance is likely at the next round number above the current price or at the 50-day moving average if a correction occurs.

Momentum remains constructive with both the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and Average Directional Index (ADX) showing buy signals on the daily timeframe, despite moderate ADX strength. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is elevated at 65.69, and Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is firmly in overbought territory at 158.96, warning of stretched conditions. Stochastic RSI presents a neutral daily outlook but is overbought on the H4 chart. Bull/Bear Power (BBP) is positive at 13.11, indicating that buyers control intraday momentum, and also signals overbought conditions. The Awesome Oscillator supports the rally with a positive bias. The stock has gained $5.44 (2.53%) today, opening with an upside gap of roughly $2.50 and holding toward the upper part of the daily range as intraday volatility stands at 2.59%. The session is marked by sustained strength near the highs, as momentum signals broadly confirm today’s bullish price action, although overbought signals from several oscillators highlight short-term overheating.

Earlier, analysts noted that Nvidia's technical strength was intact but underscored that regulatory investigations and restricted access to China posed meaningful risks to the company's outlook. With the stock sustaining its bullish structure ahead of earnings and momentum remaining constructive despite overbought signals, traders should watch for a breakout above $228.81 as confirmation of renewed upside or a move below $214.76 as an early sign of potential pullback.
