Form 13G NIP Group Inc. For: 25 February

US markets saw the Nasdaq index climb more than 1% higher on February 25, 2026, driven by pre-earnings gains in semiconductor giant Nvidia as investors anticipated strong quarterly results, while gold prices extended their recent upward trend amid ongoing economic uncertainty. The tech sector continued its rebound with Nvidia shares rising significantly ahead of the company's earnings announcement, which analysts expect will show strong results and positive guidance. However, despite beating estimates, Wall Street has reportedly indicated a desire for more substantial cash returns from the company. Meanwhile, gold prices marked their fifth gain in six trading sessions, with JPMorgan analysts suggesting further upside potential for the precious metal, which has been benefiting from its status as a safe-haven asset during volatile market conditions. The positive market sentiment was reflected across various sectors, with technology stocks leading the charge as investors positioned themselves ahead of key earnings reports, while the sustained rally in gold indicated continued investor caution and search for stability amid fluctuating economic indicators.
