Nvidia stock rose early Tuesday as it moved within touching distance of recouping all its losses from the DeepSeek market rout.The shares rose 0.8% to $139.97 ahead of the open, closing in on the $142 level at which it was trading before the Chinese start-up’s apparently low-cost artificial-intelligence model roiled tech stocks last month.

DeepSeek hasn’t sunk Nvidia’s prospects for a big year. But more-grounded hopes should still prove advantageous to the artificial-intelligence giant as it navigates a tricky road ahead. The panic sparked by the Chinese AI startup’s revelations last month cost Nvidia nearly $750 billion in market cap in a little over a week’s time.
