"I'm not aware of anyone using AWS chips in any sort of large volumes," Rasgon told Business Insider, referring to Amazon's AI chips. This time, the idea is to avoid paying for expensive Nvidia GPUs, while still providing cloud customers with powerful AI services. An obvious response to this would be to have cloud customers use Amazon's AI chips instead. However, some of the largest AWS customers have not been willing to use these homegrown alternatives, the documents said. For example, AWS's AI chips still have "compatibility gaps" in certain open-source frameworks, making Nvidia GPUs a more popular option.

▼ + stars: | 2024-05-27 | by ( Weizhen Tan | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Investor darling Nvidia continued its artificial intelligence-fueled boom, with its earnings beating expectations last week. But some analysts are worried about a potential slowdown in growth from the previous quarter, or an "air pocket" in sales toward year-end. But investors who are worried about being overexposed to Nvidia or who want to make their portfolios more balanced could consider replacing their Nvidia allocation or complementing it with other growth stocks with a low correlation to the chipmaker. Using FactSet, CNBC Pro screened four exchange-traded funds for stocks that have negative or low correlation to Nvidia in the past month. The ETFs are Vanguard S & P 500 Growth ETF, Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth ETF, Vanguard Russell 1000 Growth ETF and Fidelity Enhanced Large Cap Growth ETF.

Nvidia's upcoming stock split could propel the chipmaker higher over the short run and boost already enthusiastic investor sentiment, according to Wall Street. Nvidia's results prompted many Wall Street firms to boost their price targets on the stock as demand continues. While a split may improve accessibility by lowering the share price, it doesn't alter the value or fundamentals of the business. Citi's Atif Malik called the split a "positive surprise," while Susquehanna's Christopher Rolland said it "invigorates the retail crowd." "The 10:1 stock split likely adds short-term momentum to this AI bellwether," said Needham's Quinn Bolton.
