Nvidia took a $4.5 billion write-off in its latest quarter on unsold H20 chips that it was unable to repurpose for other markets. If sales of these high-volume chips to China resume, a reversal of this write-off could boost earnings.

The Nasdaq Composite posted its latest record finish on Tuesday, supported by a jump in shares of heavyweight Nvidia, but the other Wall Street benchmarks dropped as a key inflation report and a flurry of bank earnings failed to excite investors.

Tech stocks were an outlier, though, and the Nasdaq composite rose 0.2% to set another record thanks to Nvidia, the market’s most influential stock.
