NVIDIA Revises Financial Outlook for 2019 by $500 million, Immediately Hit Back by the Stock Market

[Deleted member 177333]

Investors trade - someone buys, someone sells. The company that issued the shares has nothing to do with it (unless it's buying its shares back, obviously).

You're looking at things from too high a level - it's not a good thing when your company's stock value drops like NVidia's has (and I am aware they are not alone). They have problems with futures perception going by a number of articles I've read over the last few weeks. Investors don't have anywhere near the level of confidence they've had in the past, for a number of reasons, and with a number of folks selling shares on NVidia, as well as the earnings adjustments NVidia themselves have made recently, that will again curb at least a percentage of investors away. This results in less people investing their $ in NVidia.

Edit - just to add here, the last bit of your post is also incorrect. Here's a few snippets I pulled off of stackexchange that will help you understand why the stock price actually does impact the company, if the article here on TPU and it's clear title didn't do already do that. It's not usually an immediate impact, more of a "downstream" effect so-to-speak. I've had a considerable amount of money invested in the stock market for decades.

And yet, market cap is still not the same as total value.
I'm not even sure there's a definition of how much a company is worth. Equity comes close, but I don't think it offers the whole picture.

Lots of variables, for sure.
