#分享美股交易赢英伟达股票 Speaking of it, it’s quite interesting. As a longtime user who has been in the crypto space for several years, my first time buying US stocks was actually completed on Gate. This time, seeing the “Square Trading Sharing Challenge”—during the event, posting original US stock content on Gate Square and using the hashtag #Gate正式推出股票交易，Top 1–3 earns a direct reward of $50 worth of Nvidia stock; plus there are daily best trading analysis and sunshine awards—so I thought it’s a perfect opportunity to talk about my feelings about my first time buying US stocks with USDT, and also share some of my thoughts on this AI market run-up.

💡 My first trade: the threshold was much lower than I imagined

Whenever I used to mention buying US stocks, I always felt it was such a hassle—setting up an overseas account, exchanging US dollars, then finding an overseas broker to open an account… just thinking about it was enough to put me off. But Gate’s launch of real stock trading this time is truly different. You can directly use USDT to buy stocks and ETFs listed on the Nasdaq and the NYSE. For me, the biggest feeling is that it’s “smooth.” No need to leave the platform, no need to deal with unfamiliar processes—within an interface I’m already familiar with, I could reach the threshold for US stocks easily, and the overall user-friendliness is really on point.

For my first order, I chose Nvidia (NVDA). The reason was simple: crypto-related AI coins had already gone through a round of hype. As Nvidia is a leading AI chip name, every time I see news about it surging or crashing, I always feel separated from it by a wall. This time, I finally get to try it myself. When placing the order, seeing the familiar order entry and the market buy option, I somehow felt an unexpected sense of closeness.

📊 Recent US stock market snapshot + NVDA’s latest updates

First, let’s talk about the broader market. Recently, the US tech sector has been showing strong performance. Funds have clearly been flowing from defensive sectors like utilities into tech stocks. The S&P 500 has been on a nine-week winning streak, with a 5.2% gain over the month. The Nasdaq index has also repeatedly set new record highs. On June 1, the S&P 500 closed at 7,611 points, and the Nasdaq hit a new record at the same time. Overall, the macro environment looks relatively optimistic for companies’ earnings expectations, and the market’s preference for risk assets continues.

Next, let’s talk about NVDA. Over the past few trading days, Nvidia’s gains have been quite significant. On June 1, it jumped 6.11% in a single day and closed at $224.04. The main catalyst came from the RTX Spark AI PC superchip revealed at COMPUTEX 2026—an all-new processor designed specifically for AI laptops. Windows laptops equipped with this chip are expected to launch in the autumn of 2026, and they may be well positioned to seize a competitive advantage in the AI PC market.
