First it was crypto and now it is AI. NVidia doesn't seem to learn. I cannot wait for this bubble to pop.

They learn just fine. These bubble make them money. The bubble bursting has zero negative effect on them. Why wouldn't they focus on the bubbles that print money for them?

They have made literally ~~hundreds~~ thousands times more during the short time AI was a thing than the entirety of the rest of their existence, like literally chatGPT was released in 2022 the Data before that is irrelevant except the crypto phase they would he idiots not to chase bubbles.

But, now they will always expect to make that much money, which will not be possible. So, in the end, they will be victims of their own insane growth. Consequences of the "growth at all costs" economy

I would hesitate to call the first 5T company a victim in any scenario.

If they crash burn and die right now the share holders still made exponentially more than decades of business as usual with no AI boom.

Edit: assuming they pull there stock before it crashes, but they have a lot of head room to pull before it ever gets to the pre ai boom.

And this is why I will never buy an NVIDIA graphics card.

What demand? The demand they are artificially creating?
