      Except the gaming industry and consumer graphics card sales are a sliver of their annual profits. Nvidia are selling the shovels to this ai gold rush. They are the ones that will come out of this bubble standing above the rest.

        Well they’ll have more money than everyone else, but they won’t be able to continue making record profits every year for eternity which of course means their business is a complete and utter failure and they have to lay off half their staff

        Its not self-sustaining if Nvidia is relying on their status of being a near-monopoly in a crirical part of the single largest entertainment industry in the world to fund it.

          That’s what I am thinking, Nvidia has near monopoly, they’ll be fine if the bubble burst, and so are TMSC and AMD because of having similar status. I only have those three AI companies invested in.

          Many people invested in as many AI companies as possible, and the problem is that if the repeat of dotcom bubble bursts but with AI, it will take another decade and half to recover except for certain companies with better fundamentals.
