The hottest artificial intelligence event of the year kicks off next week, setting the stage for key AI players to see sharp moves. Nvidia's GTC Conference, dubbed "AI Woodstock" by Bank of America, offers an opportunity for the company to showcase its latest AI chip innovations and future vision as it labors to maintain its dominance in the field. The product is expected to offer a slew of "architectural innovations" and better performance than Nvidia's flagship H100 chip, wrote New Street's Pierre Ferragu. According to Wedbush's Matt Bryson, the new chip could benefit the liquid cooling industry that may fuel power-hungry data centers. "As such, we believe any system NVDA announces that includes liquid cooling technology could effectively dictate the path of liquid cooling moving forwards and thereby determining winners and losers in the server and cooling space," Bryson said.

Bitcoin is poised to end August on a down beat despite the crypto industry scoring a milestone win on the regulation front. Bitcoin recently jumped 7% after a federal appeals court sided with Grayscale over the Securities and Exchange Commission in a key crypto ETF case. While crypto investors have a lot to cheer, it hasn't been reflected in prices, and bitcoin could remain rangebound throughout September. All eyes on Washington September kicks off with an anticipated update from the SEC on at least one spot bitcoin ETF application.
