It’s been 5 months since Australian Story aired an episode on NV Access founders, Mick Curran & Jamie Teh. The first Australian Story episode to be audio described. It was an incredible opportunity to share with a wider audience the importance of NVDA & our overarching message, that everyone deserves equal access to technology.

Not much to say about #AMD outside of that huge gap up after #NVDA earnings. Wow. 📈
Options data is likely going to be messy on AMD today and tomorrow as people take profits and contracts get assigned.
Dark pool sentiment for #AMD is still positive and the biggest dark pool level for the moment is $107.46 (by a lot).
Some bearish dark pool trades came through last night for AMD and NVDA, so exercise caution playing here at the top. Many traders will want to take profits, some will get greedy, and AI is uncharted territory.
The market will likely pick winners in the AI race and will likely pick them violently. Just don't find yourself without a chair when the music stops.
Not financial advice. Do your homework.
Nimer first began using NVDA for schoolwork over 15 years ago, and now utilises it in his workplace at Google.
“NVDA’s a really powerful tool for me that I rely on all the time” – Nimer
Thank you Nimer for sharing with us how NVDA continues to play a significant role in your life!
