In April 1993, Nvidia was founded by Jensen Huang, Chris Malachowsky and Curtis Priem. Before starting the company, Huang was a director of CoreWare at LSI Logic and a microprocessor designer at AMD, while Malachowsky and Priem both worked as engineers at Sun Microsystems. The initial capital comprised $40,000, with the firm consequently receiving $20 million of venture capital funding from Sequoia Capital and others.

A big coup early on for the company came after the success of the GeForce GPUs, which led to Nvidia winning a contract to develop graphics hardware for the Microsoft's (MSFT) Xbox game console, earning the firm a $200 million advance. In December 2004, it was announced that Nvidia would assist Sony (SNE) with the design of the RSX graphics processor in the PlayStation 3 game console.

Over the years, Nvidia has grown into a dominant force in the graphics market. Along with the introduction of new products that broadened its line, acquisitions have been one of the key growth strategies for the business. Some of the most prominent purchases included AGEIA Technologies in 2008, PGI in 2013, TransGaming in 2015, Mellanox Technologies in 2019, and SwiftStack and Cumulus Networks in 2020.

The stock price of NVDA reached $23.9 per share in January 2002, right before falling dramatically to trade at $2.45 by October.

The company’s stock shed by 80 per cent during the 2008 financial crisis, with its price dropping as low as $5.9 per share by the end of November 2008.

In the second half of 2015, the popularity of Bitcoin triggered a momentum-fuelled advance that allowed the company to gain market leadership in 2016 and 2017, giving Nvidia share value its first significant boost. The uptrend ended at $293 in October 2018, giving way to a steep decline before finding support around the $120 mark in December.

The subsequent bounce completed a round trip of the price of Nvidia stock into the 2018 high in February 2020, triggering a rally that peaked on 22 May at $361 per share.

The stock has split four times over the years: three splits were 2-for-1 in 2000, 2001 and 2006, while the other was 3-for-2 in 2007.

Great app! I requested some features to be added, such as analysis tools, and they delivered. Amazing job! The agents are always helpful and reply quickly. It’s not 5 stars because, at times, some less experienced agents may say it’s impossible to fulfill the request or fix the problem while another agent, like Angel, quickly escalated the issue to the necessary team/person/department and resolved it

This is an excellent platform. The stop loss and take profit work very well; however, when the changes are very fast like at the beginning of the session, the stop loss does not work. If this defect is corrected it will be the perfect platform.

Efficiency. When creating the account, it was smooth, efficient from start to finish. Verification of documents also was done the same day, unlike other platforms where you have to wait a day or two.
