Immediate reactions (one day)
Nvidia’s stock generally sees minimal immediate response post-earnings. For example, in Q3 2023, it barely moved on the first day, reflecting a cautious initial market response.

Short-term adjustments (one week)
The one-week trend often shows more movement. Fourth quarter (Q4) 2022 and first quarter (Q1) 2023 saw gains as investor optimism grew, while Q3 2023 saw a slight decline, indicating caution or profit-taking.

Medium-term trends (one month)
