Nvidia’s stock took a small hit this week, but its CEO, Jensen Huang, remains unfazed. Despite a sales forecast that left some investors wanting more, Huang dismissed the market’s jitters with the confidence of a leader at the center of a new industrial revolution. In his view, the recent dip is merely a footnote in a story that's only just getting started.
This is not a modest claim. Huang sees the opportunity for AI chips expanding into a multi-trillion-dollar market over the next five years, arguing that the technology's potential is vast and still largely untapped. He projects that by the end of the decade, spending on AI infrastructure could swell to as much as $4 trillion.
Huang's upbeat outlook directly contrasts with recent signs of market fatigue, including comments from other industry leaders who have warned that investors may be getting "overexcited" about AI. With some analysts questioning if the AI frenzy is sustainable, the big question remains: Is the enthusiasm a sign of a bubble about to pop, or is this really just the calm before a much bigger storm?
