But mostly we are excited to continue to execute on our research roadmap and believe more compute is more important now than ever before to succeed at our mission. the world is going to want to use a LOT of AI, and really be quite amazed by the next gen models coming."
Nobody questions whether Nvidia is the undisputed king and chips. What they're questioning is how much capex do you need for things like pre-training, post-training and then inference, ultimately,
I think investors should be very careful about assuming that this is the bottom,
It's difficult to work out if the worst is now over, or if yesterday's slump was just another sign that the top is already in for US equities,
It may be too early to write off Nvidia yet, even though the prospect of a Chinese rival is causing a crisis for the chip maker,
We're getting the typical bounce-back rally you'd expect when you have news that's not very specific and more of a potential for a future change,
Long term, I still think it's great. This story out of China with DeepSeek — we shot first, we're asking questions now,
Trump wants this American Iron Dome, and guess who helped with the Israeli Iron Dome? Raytheon. So if this does come to pass, expect Raytheon to be okay,
I think it's an opportunity to buy the stock. The quarter was pretty solid. People were concerned about 25% tariffs that weren't mentioned in their guidance
China is going to be competitive in AI software and eventually hardware,
We expected China to be competitive in AI, as they have been spending quite a bit of money developing AI, and export controls cannot prevent those investments,
We think the selling is overdone,
We think the knee-jerk reaction for the [Independent Power Producers] is overdone and that the AI landscape has not completely changed overnight,
We believe, however, this panic selling of the [data centers] seems overblown and disagree with the negative sentiment. Instead, we think that more efficient LLMs/training models will actually boost demand for high performance GPU companies and those that build data centers,
DeepSeek is, on the surface, a negative development. At the same time, Microsoft has architected its own applications (e.g. GitHub Copilot, M365 Copilot) to work with any LLM, not just those from OpenAI. ... On balance, we believe Microsoft (and OpenAI) will likely remain well-positioned for GenAI and would be buyers of any weakness,
Citi tech analysts remain bullish on NVDA, and our updated bubble work does not point to an end of the US equity bull market,
The point is AI is a massive disruption, and, in the past, when you had disruption, you always had new players coming in and trying to challenge the major players. That's the game all these companies are in,
When you look at valuations, we all know that they are expensive, especially tech valuations, but they are expensive for a reason, namely earnings growth,
The news yesterday was saying maybe the earnings growth will not be as good as what the market was expecting,
If you could do it cheaper, if you could do it (for) less (and) get to the same end result, I think that’s a good thing for us,
