Nvidia started the week off with a bang, surpassing Apple and Microsoft to become the world’s largest company by market value. However, the situation took a drastic turn by the end of Thursday’s trading, October 20th. The stock reached a historical high of $130 per share at the opening, but then experienced a significant decline and ultimately closed a little over $126.
The downward trend continued during the extended trading session, and at the time of writing this article, Nvidia’s stock price further dropped to $126.86.
This decline in stock price not only caused Nvidia to lose its top position as the world’s most valuable company, but also formed a bearish pattern on its chart.
This pattern consists of a smaller green candle and a larger red candle, indicating a possible reversal of the previous upward trend. The bearish signal suggests that investors might consider selling or shorting, but it does not guarantee that the decline will continue.

In addition, the rapid fluctuations in the stock price have made it difficult to determine clear support and resistance levels. However, as long as Nvidia’s stock price remains above $121, close to its post-split price, it is unlikely to experience a significant market downturn during the expected recovery period.
In terms of background, if this market trend had occurred before the recent 10-to-1 split, the stock would have experienced a decline of over $100 in a single trading day.
