NVIDIA Corporation shares closed at $225.32 on May 15, 2026. The stock fell 4.42% during the regular session. After-hours trading indicated a further decline to $224.41.
Renewed U.S.-China trade tensions and investor profit-taking drove the downward move. Market commentary noted a 3.6% drop on May 15th attributed to macro factors rather than company fundamentals. A U.S.-China summit produced limited progress on semiconductor export issues.
The lack of resolution pressured the broader technology and AI sectors. Major U.S. index futures are pointing lower in a risk-off environment. Investors are locking in gains following NVIDIA’s prior strong run.
