ETFs to Gain as NVIDIA Q1 Earnings Fuel Rally in AI Stocks
Read MoreHide Full Article
In an impressive display of financial performance, NVIDIA (NVDA - Free Report) , a leading U.S. chip designer, exceeded Wall Street's first-quarter earnings and revenue expectations on Wednesday. This announcement not only showcased NVIDIA's robust position in the AI chip market but also bolstered optimism over the global artificial intelligence (AI) boom.
NVIDIA shares rose as much as 7.8% in after-market trading on blowout results and surpassed the $1,000 level for the first time ever. The rally spread to other AI stocks. Among the biggest gainers were server makers like Super Micro Computer (SMCI) and Dell Technologies (DELL), which climbed more than 4% in after-market hours. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM), a key supplier to NVIDIA and the world's premier contract chip manufacturer, rose more than 3%,
NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang's outlook on the earnings call painted a bright future for the AI industry, emphasizing the enduring demand for its GPUs amid a broader industry shift toward specialized accelerators over traditional central processors.
Huang said, “The next industrial revolution has begun — companies and countries are partnering with NVIDIA to shift the trillion-dollar traditional data centers to accelerated computing and build a new type of data center — AI factories — to produce a new commodity: artificial intelligence.” He also said that “training AI models is becoming a faster process as they learn to become "multimodal" - that is, capable of understanding text, speech, images, video and 3-D data - and "to reason and plan."
Huang added that "AI will bring significant productivity gains to nearly every industry and help companies be more cost- and energy-efficient while expanding revenue opportunities.”
The AI craze will continue to fuel the rally with companies investing big on this technology. The expansion of AI applications holds the promise of ushering in fresh opportunities for growth within the sector. According to a new report by Grand View Research, the global artificial intelligence market is expected to witness a CAGR (2024-2030) of 36.6% to reach $811.75 billion by 2030 (read: AI's Insatiable Energy Needs Boost Uranium ETFs).
