☆ What Nvidia's Dow inclusion means for the chipmaker, according to history
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-04 | by ( Sarah Min | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Investors are expecting the Dow Jones Industrial Average to get a boost from the inclusion of the biggest artificial intelligence beneficiary of the last year. The 30-stock Dow has underperformed this year and last after failing to capitalize on the artificial intelligence boom that helped bolster the comparatively tech-heavy S & P 500 and Nasdaq Composite. By comparison, the S & P 500 has surged 20% in 2024, after climbing 24% last year. Nvidia shares have gained 179% this year, and last advanced 1.8% in midday trading. Meanwhile, Intel shares have tumbled more than 55% in 2024; on Monday, it was last off by another 3.5%.

Nvidia wants to bring "physical AI" to hospitals, with robots for X-rays, linen delivery, and more. AdvertisementNvidia is digging deeper into healthcare — and the tech giant has big ambitions to bring AI to every part of the hospital. "This physical AI thing is coming where your whole hospital is going to turn into an AI," Powell told BI. Physical AI is getting more sophisticated for real-time surgeries, too. But Nvidia sees robots being used far beyond the operating room — including to monitor a patient for falls in their hospital room, or bring them fresh linens, Powell said.

☆ Why this top fund manager says the best investment this year is 'the hedge against political cycles'
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-21 | by ( Emily Glass | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

A major exchange-traded fund and mutual fund manager finds the winning gold trade isn't talked about as much as the artificial intelligence trade — but maybe it should be. VanEck CEO Jan van Eck thinks the best investment this year is "the hedge against political cycles." But as of Friday, the VanEck Gold Miners ETF has started to outperform, up 31% this year. As for the AI trade, van Eck says it's "amazing" how investors refuse to give up on it. It's a companion to its VanEck Semiconductor ETF that excludes companies that run their own foundries, such as Intel .

☆ Nvidia remains a little-known brand despite briefly passing Apple, Microsoft in market cap

The other is Nvidia , which for a time this week, surpassed Microsoft to become the largest company in the world by market cap. Nvidia has over 80% of the market for chips used to train and deploy AI software like ChatGPT. 100 on Interbrand's list for 2023 is Japanese camera maker Canon, with Dutch brewer Heineken at No. The risk for Nvidia, Silverman added, is that its "weak brand strength will limit how valuable it will be, despite its market cap heights." Gamers love itHowever, a competing survey shows that Nvidia's brand value is catching up to that of its peers.

☆ When our modern-day DaVinci speaks, I listen. Here's what I plan to do when Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang steps up to the mic this week

I think Jensen deserves one day a year when he can trace out a vision without a per share attached to it. Sure, plenty of people in line Saturday would, correctly I think, say to "own it, don't trade it." Sure, I was sweating "own it, don't trade it." And, can you imagine if you owned but didn't trade Intel from 1990 to 2000? (Don't tell current Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger, who thinks it is still alive.)

☆ It's not just Nvidia: The AI boom could create semiconductor jobs across the US and reduce reliance on risky Taiwan
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-29 | by ( Jacob Zinkula | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +8 min

The demand for Nvidia's AI chips could bolster job growth across the semiconductor industry. It could also help bring more semiconductor chip manufacturing stateside and reduce the US's reliance on Taiwan — which remains vulnerable to Chinese invasion that would wreak havoc on the global economy. AdvertisementEven without the AI boom, the semiconductor industry was already poised for big job gains in the near future. Of the 115,000 US new semiconductor jobs the Semiconductor Industry Association is projecting by 2030, it said roughly 67,000 of these positions risk going unfilled given current college degree completion rates. In an effort to prevent a worker shortage, community colleges and universities across the country have partnered with semiconductor companies.

☆ Nvidia's AI-driven stock surge pushed earnings multiple three times higher than Tesla's
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-11 | by ( Kif Leswing | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

They're widely viewed as the best chips for training AI models, and Nvidia's financial forecasts suggest insatiable demand. Even with all that momentum and seemingly insatiable demand, baked into Nvidia's stock price is a slew of assumptions about growth, including the doubling of sales in coming quarters and the almost quadrupling of net income this fiscal year. Looking at the last 12 months of company earnings, Nvidia has a price-to-earnings ratio of 220, which is stunningly rich even compared with notoriously high-valued tech companies. Should Nvidia meet analysts' projections, the current price still looks high compared to most of the tech industry, but certainly more reasonable. It's the steepest weekly decline for Nvidia's stock since September of last year.
