Nvidia's market value evaporated by $1 trillion in less than two months, with its valuation falling back to levels seen before the AI boom.

According to Mars Finance, after losing approximately $1 trillion in market capitalization in less than two months, Nvidia stock has hit its lowest level since the artificial intelligence (AI) boom fueled its surge. The chipmaker's graphics processing units (GPUs) still dominate the AI data center market. However, its share price has fallen 16% since hitting an all-time high on May 14th, prompting investors to adjust their AI trading strategies, selling Nvidia and investing in other semiconductor manufacturers, particularly those in the memory market. Data shows the sell-off has driven Nvidia's price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) to 18 based on its expected earnings over the next 12 months. The last time it reached such a low level was in early 2019. To better understand the depth of the decline, a comparison with benchmark stock indices shows that the S&P 500 has a forward P/E ratio of 20, and the Nasdaq 100 has a forward P/E ratio close to 23.
