What is the Nasdaq stock ticker for Nvidia, a leading semiconductor company ranked among the world's largest by market cap?

The story behind the answer

Nvidia’s Nasdaq stock ticker is NVDA.

Nvidia Corporation is a U.S. semiconductor and computing company best known for designing graphics processing units, or GPUs. Its shares trade on the Nasdaq stock exchange under the symbol NVDA, a shortened form derived from the company’s name.

Nvidia’s market capitalization grew dramatically as demand increased for accelerated computing and artificial-intelligence systems. GPUs can perform many calculations in parallel, making them useful for graphics, scientific computing, machine learning, and large language model development.

The ticker is sometimes confused with AMD, Intel, or Qualcomm, which are separate semiconductor companies with their own symbols. A ticker identifies a listed security; it does not measure company size. Market capitalization changes with both the share price and the number of shares outstanding.
