   Krispy Kreme outpaces Nvidia as chip giant posts $1.4 trillion loss since October

   Krispy Kreme's stock has surpassed Nvidia's performance in 2026, driven by franchise expansion and minimal regulatory scrutiny, while Nvidia has entered a bear market following an $8% drop and nearly $1.4 trillion loss since its October peak. Multiple sources including Gizmodo, 24/7 Wall St, and Nishadil report Krispy Kreme's outperformance, with bargain hunters viewing Nvidia's decline as a buying opportunity amid optimism about its competitive moat widening.

   Why it matters
