The results underscore the surging demand for AI chips and data center infrastructure, key drivers for the semiconductor sector and ETFs like VanEck\u2019s Semiconductor ETF (SMH).<\/p>\n<p>Data Center revenue soared by 117% year-over-year to $89 billion, supported by hyperscale cloud providers and a sharp rise in AI-related investments. NVIDIA&#8217;s Blackwell Ultra infrastructure and its ACIE reporting segment\u2014covering enterprise AI, cloud-focused AI providers, and sovereign AI programs\u2014contributed significantly. Hyperscale revenue alone reached $49 billion, up 13% sequentially, while ACIE grew 25% quarter-over-quarter to $40 billion. These figures solidify NVIDIA\u2019s position as the backbone of AI compute demand.<\/p>\n<p>The market reaction has been strong. As of September 3, 2026, NVIDIA shares are trading at $224.41, up 3.19% in the last 24 hours. The company now boasts a staggering $5.45 trillion market cap, positioning it as a key bellwether for the broader semiconductor industry.<\/p>\n<p>For SMH, which has a 22.82% weighting in NVIDIA as of August 31, 2026, this earnings report is a direct catalyst. Demand for semiconductors remains robust, and NVIDIA\u2019s guidance for 70% fiscal 2028 revenue growth highlights the sector&#8217;s long-term potential. ETFs like SMH and SMHX, heavily exposed to NVIDIA, are likely to see increased investor interest as a result.<\/p>\n<p>However, the supply chain remains a bottleneck. NVIDIA noted that its fiscal 2028 growth will be &#8220;supply-constrained,&#8221; with expanded deployments of AI infrastructure\u2014including AWS GPU rollouts\u2014limited by production capacity. Additionally, the company has excluded China from its Q3 Data Center compute revenue assumptions, a move likely influenced by U.S. export controls and geopolitical risks.<\/p>\n<p>Even so, the broader semiconductor sector appears to be capitalizing on AI\u2019s rapid adoption. AI-native customers and hyperscalers are accelerating CapEx investments in high-bandwidth memory (HBM) and custom GPUs, while edge computing\u2014another growth area for NVIDIA\u2014saw revenue rise 27% year-over-year.<\/p>\n<p>For traders and investors, the key takeaway is the strength of NVIDIA\u2019s execution in a high-demand scenario. SMH, as a proxy for semiconductor growth, could see continued upside if NVIDIA\u2019s guidance holds and AI infrastructure spending persists. With Q3 guidance at $108 billion, NVIDIA\u2019s next earnings report will be critical for confirming whether this trajectory is sustainable.<\/p>\n<p><span><i>Image source: Shutterstock<\/i><\/span> <!-- Divider --> <!-- Bookmark button --> <!-- Bookmark button END --> <!-- Author info END --> <!-- Divider --> <a href=\"https:\/\/blockchain.news\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zach Anderson Sep 03, 2026 01:25 NVIDIA&#8217;s Q2 FY27 earnings report shows $96B in revenue, driving demand across the semiconductor sector and ETFs like SMH.
