Tesla and NVIDIA swap leadership in April
An up-and-down month for NVIDIA’s share price continues its rocky performance in 2025. The chip behemoth has found itself caught in the US-China crossfire and it seems the bigger it gets the more scrutiny from Washington it draws. Investors are clearly hoping any measures designed to curb sales to China are either short-lived or NVIDIA is able to develop new products, like 2022’s H20 chip, to overcome near-term hurdles.
Tesla investors stuck behind Elon Musk during the month, as he announced he would be stepping back from his US government role to refocus on the company. There are a few challenges ahead of the Tesla boss, not least a somewhat tarnished brand image, growing competition from Chinese EV maker BYD, and disappointing Q1 earnings. Shareholders will be hoping a new Model Y and Musk back at the helm can reverse a 20% drop in automotive revenue and 71% fall in earnings per share.
Palantir bucked the broad downward trend in April, with shares soaring after announcing NATO will use its AI system for defence operations. The company’s valuation is worrying some but, with US commercial revenue up 54% and government sales up 30% in 2024, Robinhood UK investors are backing the firm for now.
It was a better end to the month for Meta stock but the trend has still been down since February. A €200m fine from the EU for Digital Markets Act violations didn’t put off Robinhood UK investors, who are likely focusing on the firm’s hefty investments in AI, which the company hopes will boost advertising revenues and user engagement.
MicroStrategy stayed among the top picks on Robinhood UK in April as the cryptocurrency regained some of its past form, lifting MSTR along with it. Late in the month, the company bought another 15,355 BTC, spending around $1.4bn. Similarly, Coinbase got a lift on energy seeping back into the crypto market.
Tempus AI stock accelerated into month end as investors backed the telehealth firm after new deals with AstraZeneca and Pathos AI. With Q1 results due in early May, Robinhood UK investors will be hoping the stock shrugs off recent volatility and heads back towards February highs.
SuperMicro is well off its February high in 2025 but April was a steadier month. Robinhood UK investors are keeping the faith, with the company still battling suspicions of poor accounting practices which saw its auditor resign. The company seems to be on a better footing with NASDAQ now and investors will be hoping the episode gives way to a sustained uptick in its shares.
The threat of US tariffs took the wind out of Alibaba’s sails early in the month but there were signs of a tentative recovery later in April. Investors bought the weakness, likely buoyed by the company’s commitment to AI-driven growth, strong Q3 earnings and positive performance overall in 2025.
