Nvidia (NVDA): economic exposure
Over the 156 weeks to Sep 25, 2026, NVDA has been clearly sensitive to inflation expectations and interest rates and tentatively sensitive to oil and energy. No measurable link to U.S. dollar and credit spreads. It has typically moved 2.50 times as much as the U.S. stock market, which is accounted for separately.
