As the release of Nvidia's results nears, the VIX Index shows little sign of panic and is currently only slightly above this year's low. This contrast indicates that the market is vulnerable to potential fluctuations as this major risky event unfolds later today. After the release of the last four quarterly earnings reports, the company's stock price has all declined. The two VIX Index surges in June and July coincided with the fall in Nvidia's stock price. This suggests that if Nvidia's later announced performance outlook disappoints, the market may react more violently. Investors will be following guidance on the relationship between the company and its biggest customer, which some traders see as a source of risk.
