To deliver with Blackwell, Nvidia must juggle performance expectations and complex supply chains. How next year plays out will significantly depend on the performance of Blackwell, its next-generation AI chip. The Santa Clara-based chip giant reminded everyone why it has grown more than 200% this year to become the world's most valuable company. AdvertisementNvidia must navigate complex supply chainsFirst, Blackwell is what Nvidia CFO Colette Kress called a "full-stack" system. There had been some recent suggestions that cooling issues were plaguing Blackwell, but Huang seemed to suggest they had been addressed.

Broadcom reported an earnings beat Thursday, driven by strong sales of its AI products and VMware software. We view Broadcom as one of the biggest AI beneficiaries through its networking and custom chip businesses. However, Broadcom generated $5.3 billion in free cash flow when excluding restructuring and integration cash costs in the quarter. The semi number is a slight miss versus expectations, and the difference is probably due to the non-AI business lines because AI sales are humming. Broadcom raised its full-year AI revenue forecast to $12 billion, up from prior guidance of over $11 billion.

Jim doesn't see a need to step in first thing Thursday morning and buy the dip. Through its Nvidia AI Enterprise service, Nvidia is in the process of building out a potentially massive software business. Quarterly commentary During Nvidia's fiscal second quarter, better-than-expected sales were driven by strength in all key segments, including a Data Center segment revenue record. Regarding China, Kress said, "Data Center revenue in China grew sequentially in Q2 and is a significant contributor to our Data Center revenue. Guidance Taking a closer look at guidance, Nvidia's fiscal third quarter may not have beaten the Street's estimates by the magnitude some were hoping for, but it's far from disappointing.

But the next bottleneck in AI infrastructure — and one to invest in — is networking, according to tech analysts. An increase in investment in generative AI model training and inference will drive the AI networking spending growth of 34% over the next five years, said the firm. "Networking creates a performance bottleneck for generative AI model development," Morningstar's analysts said. "Well-positioned networking firms are a great second derivative play to invest in generative AI," they added. Stocks to play the trend Marvell Technology is Morningstar's top pick to play the generative AI networking trend, with the firm saying it is "attractively undervalued" currently and giving investors an "immediately opportunity" to tap rising generative AI networking investment.

We view Broadcom as one of the biggest AI beneficiaries through its networking and custom chip businesses. And it's a good thing that Broadcom wants to make its stock more accessible to investors and employees. Broadcom said the spending run rate at VMware was $1.6 billion in the quarter, down from $2.3 billion per quarter pre-acquisition. Outlook Following the strong first half of its fiscal year 2024, Broadcom raised both its revenue and adjusted EBITDA outlook. The positively revised update is above FactSet estimates of $50.58 billion in revenue and $30 billion of adjusted EBITDA.

Shopify : Shares tumbled around 20% after the e-commerce platform said its second-quarter gross margins were expected to be lower than the first quarter. So, do you buy Shopify? "Buy Reddit right here, and the reason why you buy Reddit is there's a shortage of places to put advertising" as more dollars leave traditional channels, Cramer said. Arista Networks : Shares rose nearly 7% after the provider of networking technology delivered better-than-expected quarterly results driven by AI spending from cloud-computing giants. Dutch Bros : Shares jumped 12% after the Oregon-based coffee chain reported a 10% increase in first-quarter same-store sales.

Wall Street analysts are ignoring the short-term noise and remain focused on companies that have strong fundamentals and can generate attractive returns in the long run. Bearing that in mind, here are three stocks favored by the Street's top pros, according to TipRanks, a platform that ranks analysts based on their past performance. Micron TechnologyThis week's first stock pick is memory chipmaker Micron Technology (MU), which impressed investors with its strong quarterly performance. Bolton noted that Micron's HBM3E memory solution generated revenue in the fiscal second quarter and has already sold out for calendar year 2024. He highlighted management's commentary about generating several hundred million dollars of revenue from HBM3E in fiscal 2024 and driving fiscal 2025 revenue to record highs.

NVDA 5Y mountain Nvidia 5 years The Nvidia phenomenon is something for all investors to take note of and study. The first question we got on the call was in relation to the sustainability of the Data Center sales momentum. Generative AI isn't possible in a data center built for traditional general-purpose computing. In fact, Nvidia believes AI inferencing was responsible for about 40% of Data Center sales over the past year. This is why Nvidia was designated by Jim Cramer and the Club as an "own it, don't trade it" stock.

During the quarter, new product orders slowed down, mainly because clients are busy installing and implementing products after strong delivery in the three previous quarter, Cisco said in the statement. The company now sees $3.87 to $3.93 in adjusted earnings per share on $53.8 billion to $55.0 billion in revenue. During the quarter Cisco announced plans to acquire data analytics software maker Splunk for $28 billion. Notwithstanding the after-hours move, Cisco share have climbed 12% so far this year, trailing the S&P 500 index, which is up 17% over the same period.

Tuesday started with Nvidia getting more praise from one analyst, and a battery stock downgrade. She has a price target of $40 on shares, which suggests 20.3% upside potential from where shares closed on Monday. The firm initiated the stock with a buy rating and $125 price target, which suggests 7% upside from Monday's close. "3Q brings a narrative change in FREY's outlook with new risks to tech, strategy and funding that's been appropriately discounted by the stock market. He also slashed his price target to $2 from $13, which suggests 14.3% upside from Monday's close.

Analysts on Wall Street think Arista Networks is the next premier artificial intelligence play. On Monday, the company reported a blowout third quarter that surpassed Wall Street expectations on both the top and bottom lines. Moving forward, analysts think the company can be the top player in the Ethernet application of AI. "While there remains risk heading into the 800G cycle, we continue to think Arista is well positioned." The analyst reiterated Arista as a top AI pick into 2024.

Arista Networks could be an early way to get into artificial intelligence, according to Citi. Analyst Atif Malik upgraded the networking equipment stock to buy from neutral and raised his price target to $220 from $177. He also said AI can create a business opportunity between $2 billion and $5 billion over the next three to five years. Malik said Arista's investor day in November could be a positive catalyst for the stock. ANET YTD mountain Arista Networks, year to date — CNBC's Michael Bloom contributed to this report

Here are three major reasons why Nvidia stock — which has amore than tripled so far in 2023 — has not finished its climb, justifying our $600-per-share price target. That's because Wall Street's earnings estimates have been revised much higher than Nvidia stock's more-than-3% post-earnings gain. A forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is calculated by dividing a company's stock price by its annual earnings-per-share (EPS). Using Thursday's midday price of roughly $486 per share, Nvidia stock trades at a 46.6 P/E, based on fiscal year 2024 estimates. That makes Nvidia's stock rally largely an earnings-driven story, not an ascent rooted in multiple expansion.

"During the quarter, major cloud service providers announced massive NVIDIA H100 AI infrastructures. Leading enterprise IT system and software providers announced partnerships to bring NVIDIA AI to every industry. Quarterly commentary Data-center revenue in the quarter — comprising 76% of total revenue — reached a new record, more than doubling from a year ago and on a sequential basis. However, revenue was up sequentially on improved demand for Nvidia's enterprise workstation and the ramp of Nvidia RTX products. Nvidia said it bought back $3.28 billion worth of stock during its second quarter.

Cisco CEO surprised analysts by mentioning it had already sold half a billion dollars of AI gear. Cisco is trying to woo cloud companies away from offerings by Nvidia. "To date, we have taken orders for over half a billion dollars for AI Ethernet fabrics. But Robbins says this new AI cloud market will be triple or more the size of the original and, this time, he plans to make sure Cisco gets its share. And, you know, unfortunately for us, as it's been well documented, we missed the original cloud build out," Robbins said.

Wall Street kicked off the week with bullish takes on several high-flying tech stocks in the portfolio — validating our decision to stick with these mega-caps heading into quarterly earnings. It's also important to understand that some price target raises are just chasing a big move, and that the price reaction to an earnings release has less to do with the results and much more to do with expectations. It's also why Citigroup also put AMD on a "negative catalyst watch," meaning it is negative on the stock heading into earnings. In the analysts' view, Apple has an opportunity to grow its revenue by seven times in the U.S. over the next decade to about $40 billion, while adding 170 million new users. Microsoft What the analysts say: Analysts at Mizuho reiterated their buy rating on Microsoft while taking up their price target to $390 from $360.

Bank of America says silicon-based chips are expected to grow to $10 billion by 2027InfiniBand (IB) and ethernet can both be used for AI computer networks. But Bank of America expects the global AI software market to reach $900 billion by 2026, up from just under $600 billion this year. But generative AI isn't like your average search engine. As big-tech cloud providers begin to integrate generative AI into their centers, the demand for things such as networking silicon is set to skyrocket. The investment bank expects ethernet to attract most of the $10 billion market share, growing from $500 million to $6 billion by 2027.

May 31 (Reuters) - Specialized cloud computing provider CoreWeave has raised $200 million in funding from its existing investor Magnetar Capital, highlighting investor interest in backing infrastructure powering the generative AI boom. The funding, which valued the company at more than $2 billion, comes weeks after CoreWeave raised $221 million from investors including Magnetar Capital and Nvidia (NVDA.O). CoreWeave specializes in providing cloud computing services based on graphics processing units (GPUs), the category of chip pioneered by Nvidia that has become central to artificial intelligence (AI) services like OpenAI's ChatGPT. CoreWeave sells computing power to those AI companies, competing with cloud computing service providers such as Microsoft Azure and Amazon's AWS. (MSFT.O), (AMZN.O)CoreWeave aims to stand out by building its data centers differently for AI work, using a networking technology called InfiniBand to link computers together instead of Ethernet cables that are the current standard in most data centers, McBee said.

April 18 (Reuters) - Broadcom Inc (AVGO.O) on Tuesday released a new chip for wiring together supercomputers for artificial intelligence (AI) work using networking technology that is already in wide use. Broadcom is a major supplier of chips for Ethernet switches, which are the primary way the computers inside conventional data centers are connected to one another. But the rise of AI applications like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Alphabet Inc's (GOOGL.O) Bard have presented new challenges for the networks inside data centers. Broadcom on Tuesday announced a new chip, Jericho3-AI, which can connect up to 32,000 GPU chips together. The Jericho3-AI chip will compete with another supercomputer networking technology called InfiniBand.
OAKLAND, Calif, Nov 16, (Reuters) - U.S. chip designer and computing firm Nvidia Corp (NVDA.O) on Wednesday said it is teaming up with Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O) to build a “massive” computer to handle intense artificial intelligence computing work in the cloud. The AI computer will operate on Microsoft’s Azure cloud, using tens of thousands of graphics processing units (GPUs), Nvidia’s most powerful H100 and its A100 chips. “We're seeing a broad groundswell of AI adoption ... and the need for applying AI for enterprise use cases.”In addition to selling Microsoft the chips, Nvidia said it will partner with the software and cloud giant to develop AI models. Buck said Nvidia would also be a customer of Microsoft’s AI cloud computer and develop AI applications on it to offer services to customers. This is important as heavy AI computing work requires thousands of chips to work together across several servers.
