Nvidia, the world’s most valuable company, gave a tepid revenue forecast for the current period, signaling that growth is decelerating after a staggering two-year boom in artificial intelligence spending.
Sales will be roughly $54 billion in the fiscal third quarter, which runs through October, the company said in a statement Wednesday.
