Nvidia is poised to deliver strong Q3 earnings, with analysts predicting significant profitability growth. The company's current market valuation has reached $3.49 trillion, a stark contrast to 2005 when Intel's board blocked a $20 billion acquisition of Nvidia, deeming it too expensive. This decision highlights the dramatic rise in Nvidia's value over nearly two decades. Meanwhile, Intel's CEO has resigned amid criticism as the company struggles in comparison to Nvidia's performance.
