While everyone focused on $NVDA earnings, I think it's worth taking a look at $TSN earnings
After reporting earnings, $NVDA fell 6.3% while $TSN fell 8.45%.

For Nvidia, people are saying that Pelosi sold her shares at a loss because she knew ahead of time that the earnings were bad. Personally, I think that it was because she knew that a Chinese invasion of Taiwan would happen soon and that it was better to get out now than take a gamble that there will be a better time to sell later.

As for Tyson Foods, their shares fell the most in two years as inflation lowered their meat sales and increased their operating costs. Interestingly, beef sales volume was higher for the quarter while the sale of pork and chicken were lower. Even if beef sales did better for the quarter, year to date, they're still down.

It's expected that meat prices will rise as farmers scale back herds due to the rising cost of feed. In the article, I found it scary that it mentions that "[t]he American cattle herd is already the smallest since 2015."

I wouldn't be surprised if $TSN sees a correction similar to what $WMT and $TGT have endured for telling investors that inflation has squeezed their profits margins. Hopefully, the company will find ways to manage its costs and expand its cattle herd to feed the growing world population.

In the meantime, with lower meat volumes and the company betting on higher meat prices to save their profits, I think that the company will still see its shares trending lower. Investors are starting to not see Tyson Foods as a "flight of safety" play and are starting to see this company in the same light as Walmart, Target, and other retail and shipping names.
