Well Nvidia's the one laughing to the bank here; they've offloaded their GPUs for cash and stakes, and Microsoft/OpenAI/'AI' providers are the ones holding the bag (and GPUs).
Picks and shovels. The profiteers of the gold rush were the suppliers... I mean, Nvidia wants the grift to keep going, of course, but still.
They'll be hit hard also. Apparently about 50% of their sales revenue comes from 3 customers, almost certainly members of the Magnificent 7 buying GPUs for data centers. In the modern economy, a quarter without revenue growth is failure, but imagine double digit decline.
I mean, their stock price will take a hit. But realistically, that is not necessarily bad for Nvidia as a company, as long as they are ready for the burst and don't over extend.
Yeah, exactly.
Their stock will tank, but financially? They will be fine. They'll go back to a more sane baseline market with an absolute mountain of cash and disturbing market share to show for it.
Seriously. NVDA and AMD are the only ones who are going to profit from this. And the CEOs, of course.
FYI
Nvidia's CEO, Jensen Huang, and AMD's CEO, Lisa Su, are first cousins once removed.
Cool?
Their golden parachutes are locked and ready.
most of those sales on credit actually
So if the buyers default, nvidia is holding the bag.
