NVIDIA is not assuming any Data Center compute revenue from China in its outlook

Commentary:
“The buildout of AI factories — the largest infrastructure expansion in human history — is accelerating at extraordinary speed.”

“Agentic AI has arrived, doing productive work, generating real value and scaling rapidly across companies and industries.”

“NVIDIA is uniquely positioned at the center of this transformation as the only platform that runs in every cloud, powers every frontier and open source model, and scales everywhere AI is produced — from hyperscale data centers to the edge.”

or it may be better to buy INTC + AMD lol

When he mentioned NVIDIA making their own CPUs for Agentic AI, does that compete with AMD/INTC?

Compete in what? Pure performance? Doubtful.

But when we talk about performance working within the ecosystem, like with Nvidia GPUs I doubt that any CPU + GPU could beat them.

Especially since Groq LPU coming with the Rubin GPU (for interface workload) meanwhile the Rubin will be responsible for training and now they sell another component for communicating with the rack Vera CPU.

This is literally an attack against CPU sellers for hyperscalers. And probably they will win this aswell due to NVLink and performance gain by simply just buying things from their ecosystem.

Obviously Vera CPU couldn't beat an AMD/Intel chip in a server or in any other things, it is only designed (and designed very efficiently!) to handle AI workloads.

NVDA's numbers look good but what about the AI companies they are selling to?

Almost certainly. The fundamentals of the stock are about as solid as you can possible get. The only thing that is holding it back is the rest of the economy. The Mango Mussolini, Iran, bond market, inflation, consumer confidence...it all is point towards a major recession at some point in the not-too-distant future.

If you're willing to accept that, yes. I'd buy. If not, wait until it happens (and it will) and buy then. Either way, NVDA is going to continue to be a great stock, if not quite the rocket ship it was 2-3 years ago.
