Nvidia (NVDA) stock gained over 6% in early trading following its Q2 earnings on Wednesday, beating Wall Street's expectations on the top and bottom lines and providing a better-than-expected outlook for the third quarter.

For Q2, Nvidia reported adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $2.22 on revenue of $96.2 billion, better than the EPS of $2.09 and revenue of $92.3 billion that Wall Street was anticipating.
