What's Going On With Nvidia Stock Monday?

Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA) shares climbed Monday, tracking a broader market rebound after President Donald Trump announced a five-day pause on planned strikes targeting Iranian energy infrastructure and cited "productive" talks aimed at de-escalating the conflict.

Other Key Updates

Nvidia and Emerald AI on Monday announced a partnership with AES Corporation (NYSE:AES), Constellation Energy Corp. (NASDAQ:CEG), Invenergy, NextEra Energy Inc. (NYSE:NEE), Nscale Energy & Power and Vistra Corp. (NYSE:VST) to develop AI factories that can connect faster to the grid and operate as flexible energy assets.

The facilities will use Nvidia's Vera Rubin DSX architecture and DSX Flex software to integrate compute with power systems, enabling quicker deployment and improved grid support.

The companies said flexible AI factories could unlock up to 100 gigawatts of U.S. grid capacity by optimizing existing infrastructure. Commercial deployment is expected later this year at Nvidia's AI Factory Research Center in Virginia.
