LONDON (Reuters) -Nvidia's Frankfurt-listed shares fell 2.9% on Thursday, a day after its results came up short of some analyst expectations in its important data centre segment.

The chipmaker also said it expects revenue of $54 billion, plus or minus 2%, in the third quarter, compared with analysts' average estimate of $53.14 billion.

The fall in Nvidia's Frankfurt shares followed a roughly similar drop in after hours U.S. trading on Wednesday.
