NVIDIA stock OHLC, 2016 to 2026

NVIDIA's monthly close reached $200.75 in July 2026, from a split-adjusted $0.73 at the start of 2016: a 274-fold rise in ten and a half years. The record came in May 2026, when the stock traded as high as $236.54 in the same month the company became the first ever valued above $5.5 trillion.

How it is measured

The four series come from Twelve Data's price feed for NVDA: the first, highest, lowest, and last traded prices of each month. Prices are adjusted for stock splits (four-for-one in 2021, ten-for-one in 2024), so the early years read in today's per-share terms. A green candle closed above its open, a red one below. The price axis hugs the traded range rather than starting at zero, the convention for price charts, because the information lives in the variation.

What the candles show

84 of the 127 months are green, but the rise was anything but steady. The stock lost 52.5 percent of its value between September and December 2018, and 62.9 percent between November 2021 and September 2022, both measured on monthly closes; each episode shows as a run of long red candles. The best single month was May 2017, up 38.4 percent, and the worst was April 2022, down 32.0 percent. The 2023 to 2026 climb that made NVIDIA the world's most valuable company appears here as three years of mostly green candles with only two pauses deeper than 15 percent.
