Nvidia and AMD were on different dated chart tests after the completed November 11 regular session. AMD closed just above its 50-day average; Nvidia remained below both its 50-day and 200-day averages. In separately observed November 12 premarket trading, Nvidia was lower and AMD higher than their November 11 closes. Premarket prices can change before the open and must not be drawn as completed daily candles or treated as proof of a news cause.
What the completed charts show
Nvidia (NVDA) closed November 11 at $173.73, up 2.87% from $168.89. Its $217.12 50-day and $204.47 200-day averages were above the close. The November 10 six-month intraday low was $165.89. The October 6 intraday high of $243.37 to that subsequent low was a 31.84% full decline; the November 11 close was 4.73% above the low and still 28.61% below the October high. The premarket observation below $165.89 requires a daily retest and close above the dated low to count as a reclaim; the premarket print alone does not do that.
AMD closed November 11 at $552.90, up 7.32% from $515.21. It finished $2.47 above its $550.43 50-day simple average and above its $420.05 200-day average. This is a dated chart-position observation, not a claim that the November 12 regular session will hold those levels.
The financial reports have different clocks
Nvidia's latest released Q2 fiscal 2027 ended July 26. It reported $96.221 billion of revenue, a 75.0% GAAP gross margin, $63.734 billion of GAAP operating income and $24.077 billion of GAAP operating cash flow. Its GAAP operating margin of 66.2% here is operating income divided by revenue. Nvidia scheduled its next Q3 FY2027 results for November 17; those results are not yet public.
AMD's latest released Q3 2026 ended September 26. It reported $13.377 billion of revenue, a 54.0% GAAP gross margin, $2.832 billion of GAAP operating income and $1.202 billion of GAAP operating cash flow. Its corresponding GAAP operating margin was 21.2%. The figures are useful for scale and business-model context, but not a matched-quarter growth or valuation score.
Nvidia reported $89.0 billion of Data Center revenue in its quarter; AMD reported $8.546 billion for its Data Center segment. Both labels include different product mixes and cover different periods, so the two totals are not a direct AI GPU sales or market-share comparison. Nvidia's latest balance sheet at July 26 listed $22.443 billion of cash and equivalents plus $34.143 billion of marketable debt securities, against $33.366 billion of short- and long-term debt. AMD's September 26 balance sheet listed $15.776 billion of cash and short-term investments and $7.079 billion of total debt. These dated balances do not by themselves rank equity value or risk.
What would change the reading
The completed November 12 daily closes will show whether AMD stayed above its 50-day average and whether Nvidia reclaimed the November 10 low after the separate premarket trade. Nvidia's November 17 report will replace its older July-ended quarter with actual new results. At the original source freeze, the Wall Street Journal's November 11 report about a possible CEO removal was attributed reporting, not an announced decision. Price moves alone do not establish what caused them.
Update, November 12: Nvidia announced that its board accepted Jensen Huang’s resignation as president, CEO and director on November 11, effective immediately. CFO Colette Kress is interim CEO while remaining CFO, and Harvey C. Jones is chair. The SEC filing confirms the transition. The November 11 completed charts and earlier November 12 premarket observations remain dated snapshots, not post-announcement closes.
