NVDA · PEAD ↑ 34

NVIDIA reported Q2 FY2027 EPS of $2.22 on 2026-08-26 (after market close), beating the $2.09 consensus by $0.13 (+6.2%).

Print-day reaction was -1.6% versus the prior close, a muted sell-the-news dip on the earnings date itself. Overnight, the stock gapped sharply higher — +6.3% from the T+0 close to the T+1 open — signalling that after-hours buyers absorbed the initial fade decisively. Days 1–3 drift then gave back -3.2%, partially unwinding the overnight surge and leaving the cumulative return in positive but reduced territory. Cumulative abnormal return of +3.4% versus SPY.US clears the PEAD long threshold; the drift ultimately confirmed — though modestly — the overnight directional read, with the holding window running through 2026-11-23.
