Why did NVDA fall after beating earnings?
Beating or missing estimates is only part of the story. These are the measurable things that stand out for each surprising reaction.

Was NVDA's earnings move already priced in?
Stocks often move in the weeks before a report. This compares that run-up with what happened after the report.
“Month before” is the move over the 20 trading days up to the last close before the report. “Priced in” means the good news may already be in the price. A run-up of 5% or more is treated as large.

Does NVDA hold its opening gap after earnings?
A gap is how far the stock opens from the previous close. A gap fades when the stock gives back at least half of it by the end of the day.
In 8 reports NVDA opened at least 1% away from the previous close. It gave back half or more of that gap by the close 3 of 8 times (38%), and fully reversed 2 times.

Across its last 12 quarters with a measured reaction, NVDA moved an average of ±5.6% in the first session after reporting. It closed higher 42% of the time; the largest gain was 16.4% and the largest drop -8.5%.
NVDA fell in the first session after 7 of its last 12 EPS beats (58%). A beat that was already priced in, or weaker guidance, can send a stock lower. In 5 of the 7 of those falls where price data is available, the stock had already risen before the report.
Across its last 12 quarters with price data, NVDA moved an average of +9.4% in the 20 trading sessions before reporting and was higher in 100% of them. After a run-up of 3% or more (10 quarters), it fell the next day 50% of the time, averaging +1.9%. This describes past reports; it is not a forecast.
In 8 reports NVDA opened at least 1% away from the previous close. It gave back half or more of that gap by the close 3 of 8 times (38%), and fully reversed 2 times. A fade means the opening move was partly undone during the first session.
How we calculate these numbers
Reported EPS and estimates come from Yahoo Finance; report times, upcoming dates and revenue come from Finnhub. The 1-day move is the close-to-close change over the first session that reflects the report (the report-day close for after-close reports, the prior close for pre-market reports); reactions are left blank when the report time is unknown or looks inconsistent. The expected move is the price of the nearest at-the-money straddle that expires after the report divided by the share price, shown only when the quotes are liquid. Quarters where the two data sources disagree on beat versus miss are shown but never counted. Information only, not investment advice.
