Nvidia’s AI Ambitions Clash With Street's Caution Despite Bold Vision

‍

At GTC 2025, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang laid out an aggressive roadmap featuring the Blackwell Ultra (2025), Vera Rubin (2026), and Rubin Ultra (2027)—offering up to 14x performance gains. He argued that agentic AI now requires 100x more compute than last year, reinforcing Nvidia’s central role in a $1 trillion AI infrastructure buildout by 2028.
‍

Still, Nvidia shares fell during the week, down over 13% YTD and flashing a technical “death cross,” as Wall Street remains cautious. Concerns include potential AI capex slowdowns, competition from Broadcom’s ASIC chips, and Trump-era tariff risks. Huang pushed back, calling ASICs unreliable and touting Nvidia’s U.S.-based chip production plans to navigate geopolitical headwinds.
‍

The company also hosted its first “Quantum Day,” aiming to reframe its role in quantum computing after Huang’s earlier 15-year timeline rattled the sector. Yet, despite his more optimistic tone and GPU-quantum integration efforts, quantum stocks like D-Wave and IonQ still slumped.

Until Nvidia delivers on revenue growth and margin stability, investors may hesitate—despite the company’s unmatched AI hardware roadmap and long-term tailwinds.

Tesla Stock Caught in Political Crossfire

‍

Since Elon Musk’s appointment to lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Tesla dealerships and charging stations across at least nine states have been hit with arson, gunfire, and vandalism—including incidents involving Molotov cocktails and hate graffiti.

President Trump has labeled the acts “domestic terrorism” and warned that perpetrators and financial backers could face up to 20 years in prison or even extradition to El Salvador. Meanwhile, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has publicly blamed left-wing activists and reposted warnings on his social media platform, escalating tensions further.
