Tech giant Nvidia hit an all-time high on the stock market on Monday, managing to briefly surpass even Amazon when it reached a market valuation of $1.83 trillion. The rally saw it temporarily become the fourth-highest valued US-listed company behind Alphabet, Apple, and Microsoft, Bloomberg reports.

Desperate to find some kind of recent stability, Real Sociedad will welcome Cadiz to the Reale Arena on Friday night.
Starting with the hosts, making what was a crucial return to winning ways last weekend as they snatched an action-packed 3-2 victory away at Granada, Real Sociedad will be desperate to use that performance as a platform to build on. However, crashing out of the Champions League earlier in the month following a 4-1 aggregate defeat at the hands of French giants PSG, Imanol Alguacil’s men have recorded just a pair of wins from any of their previous 11 straight appearances across all competitions. With that extended rut stemming all the way back to a 2-1 Copa del Rey victory away at Celta Vigo on January 23rd, Re…

West Ham co-owner David Sullivan has piled more pressure on manager Sam Allardyce after calling for a top-six finish next season.
Senior officials at the Upton Park club announced earlier this week that they expect a minimum top-10 place along with a better style of football from the 59-year-old s side in 2014-15, but Sullivan has raised expectations even further.
Sullivan, who bought control of West Ham in 2010 alongside David Gold, has called on West Ham s players to challenge for silverware and push for Europe.
We start next season with three competitions, two of which we can win and we have to be dreaming of winning the third one, he is quoted as saying in the Evening Standard.
I don t want to just aim for top 10. We should be aiming for top six.
I wan…

Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew has issued a warning to Sammy Ameobi that he is running out of opportunities to establish himself as a first-ream regular at St James Park.
Since breaking into the Magpies first-team in 2011, Ameobi, 22, has shown glimpses of brilliance in the short-term.
His long-term results, i.e. maintaining form, have been less impressive.
It was a story of more of the same from the former England Under-21 international against Hull City last weekend.
Ameobi replaced Cheick Tioté on 85 minutes, showed some promise going forward, but conceded a free-kick that could have resulted in a defeat for Newcastle.
Sammy is a player who has unbelievable talent and we have been waiting and waiting for him to deliv…
