Nvidia stock closed at USD 218.36 on the Nasdaq on September 10, 2026, losing about 2.3% for the session versus the prior close of USD 223.42 per exchange data. The move left the shares trading within a daily range between roughly USD 217 and USD 221 while the Nasdaq Composite also slipped, underscoring broader pressure on large-cap technology names. The stock remained comfortably above its 52-week low near USD 164 but below its recent 52-week high around USD 236, highlighting a pullback from peak levels.
September 10, 2026 in numbers
Nvidia Corp. (ISIN US67066G1040, Nasdaq: NVDA) saw its shares trade between an intraday low of USD 217.20 and a high of USD 220.99 on September 10, 2026, before settling at USD 218.36 at the close. Per Nasdaq data summarized by MarketWatch, this represented a decline of roughly 2.1% to 2.3% from the previous close of USD 223.42, with the stock tracking a broader selloff in major U.S. equity indexes as oil prices climbed above USD 100 and investors rotated out of high-valuation growth names.
As StocksDownUnder reported on September 11, 2026, Nvidia closed at USD 218.36 on September 10, down about 2.3% for the day as news of a U.S. Department of Justice review of a Groq-related arrangement added to cautious sentiment around artificial intelligence hardware spending. According to MSN, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell more than 300 points and Nvidia was among the notable decliners within the Nasdaq 100 as rising oil prices and higher Treasury yields weighed on risk assets.
Today’s drivers for Nvidia
Today, September 11, 2026, Nvidia enters the session shortly after an ex-dividend date, with several outlets noting that the record date for its recently raised quarterly cash dividend of USD 0.25 per share was September 10, 2026, and that the next payment is scheduled for October 1, 2026, following a 2,400% increase from the prior USD 0.01 payout in its latest fiscal second-quarter release. As 24/7 Wall St highlighted on September 10, 2026, this sharp dividend hike accompanies substantial ongoing share repurchases and reinforces Nvidia’s capital-return profile.
Market attention today also remains on broader macro drivers that affected Nvidia in the last session. As Bitget noted in its latest U.S. market briefing, Nvidia’s USD 218.36 level on September 10 came alongside a fourth consecutive decline in U.S. stocks as oil prices pushed past USD 100 per barrel, a backdrop that can shape sentiment toward cyclical and rate-sensitive technology shares heading into today’s trading.
