June 3rd. NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang made waves at Computex yesterday when he stated that semiconductor maker Marvell would "become the next trillion-dollar company" — a comment that sparked a rally in U.S. AI sector stocks. Using Marvell’s $219.43 closing price before Huang’s remarks as a baseline, its shares jumped more than 32% during Tuesday’s regular trading session, then added another 9.62% in after-hours trading to settle at roughly $318.76, a cumulative daily increase of about 45.27%.
