AI Stocks & Nvidia: I/O Fund’s 2025 Tech Media Highlights

While the rest of the market spent this year debating AI bubbles, geopolitical fears, and supply chain bottlenecks, our team remained laser-focused on the signal within the noise. Rather than responding to headlines, we work hard to anticipate shifts to get in front of the market. For example, consider that we covered AI energy in our free newsletter 18 months before the market recognized it had become a bottleneck for AI systems. Behind our paywall, we do this on a monthly – if not weekly basis – by publishing information we feel confident is early and actionable.  

As we close out a defining year for tech, we’re proud to share a few media moments where our theses met the mainstream. Below are some of our most impactful media appearances of the year, including in-depth conversations on Nvidia’s stock, the broader AI market, and—not to be missed—a few lesser-known AI stocks that anchors couldn’t help but ask about.  

We are grateful that our readers trust us to cut through the noise - and we want to wish you a wonderful holiday season and a successful close to the 2025 trading year! 

Beth Kindig’s $20 Trillion Nvidia Thesis: 25% Data Center Growth Silences AI Bubble Fears

I/O Fund’s CEO and Lead Tech Analyst, Beth Kindig, joined Charles Payne of Fox Business Network on his show ‘Making Money with Charles Payne’, after Nvidia’s stellar Q3 results. In the video below, Beth highlighted the company’s strong fundamentals and picture-perfect earnings report. She specifically pointed out the 25% sequential growth in the data center segment, the fastest QoQ growth in about two years. Beth boldly said, “The more people talk of the AI Bubble, I would counter that and say the bigger concern is the opportunity cost of not investing in AI.” Beth also defended her $20 trillion market cap forecast by 2030. 

I/O Fund has a history of buying Nvidia at low prices. The first entry was $3.15 in December 2018.

Nvidia’s Blackwell Ramp: Key to the $20 Trillion Thesis

In May, Beth made an bold call on Fox Business Network following Nvidia’s Q1 results—at a time when few dared to look past the headlines. She emphasized that Nvidia’s software revenue is on track to surpass hardware revenue within five years, that Blackwell's ramp is strong, and that Nvidia's long-term AI vision transcends China-related market noise. Since this interview, Nvidia shares are up 30% - not an easy call considering the company was already worth $3.4 trillion and competing with Microsoft as the world’s most valuable company.  

Best AI Stocks for Q4 2025: Beth Kindig’s Top Picks

In Q4, Beth released her Top 15 AI Stocks report that totaled 43 pages and 15,000 words. Charles Payne interviewed Beth to discuss three of the top 15 stocks. To access the full report, subscribe here.

From Hopper to Blackwell: Why Beth Kindig’s Nvidia Q3 Call Was a ‘Bingo’ for Investors

Beth Kindig made a bold call after the GTC 2025 event in March this year and said, “It is a perfect time for the naysayers to lose faith because we are moving from one generation to the next. That’s from Hopper to Blackwell...keep an eye on Q3, it is going to be phenomenal.”  

The stock is up 60% since this conversation, despite the $2.90 trillion market cap during that time and Nvidia’s Q3 was the strongest report in nearly two years (bingo!) 

Nvidia Blackwell Ramp & $50B Data Center Forecast: Beth Kindig on Bloomberg

In August, Beth Kindig shared her outlook on Nvidia’s growth with Caroline Hyde on Bloomberg Technology, emphasizing the strong ramp of the Blackwell platform. She noted that her forecast set a year ago that data center quarterly revenue would surpass $50 billion by year-end fiscal 2026 was likely conservative. Later, Nvidia achieved the milestone a full quarter early, exceeding $50 billion in data center revenue in Q3. 

AI Infrastructure & Power Demand: Why Energy Stocks Are Essential for AI Portfolios

Beth Kindig joined Charles Payne on Fox Business Network in July to break down the evolving AI landscape and why energy stocks are becoming a critical piece of AI-driven portfolios. In this interview, Beth explains how power demands from AI infrastructure are reshaping the market — and why investors should consider exposure to top-performing energy names alongside tech leaders. 

The Rarest S&P 500 Pattern Since 1998: Cycles Point to a Big Move Ahead

In the below video, I/O Fund’s Co-Portfolio Manager, Knox Ridley, breaks down why the current S&P 500 rally is one of the rarest in over 25 years. Using Fibonacci retracements, cycle analysis, and long-term Elliott Wave patterns, he examines how the market has rallied for eight straight months without even a 23.6% pullback — a behavior only seen once since the 1920s, during the 1998–1999 melt-up. 

Bitcoin Price Prediction 2025: Elliot Wave & RSI Signals Pointed to a Cycle Top

The I/O Fund's Co-Portfolio Manager, Knox Ridley, perfectly highlighted that the Bitcoin price was entering the final fifth wave after a multi-year bull run — and technical signals are flashing a warning that a potential top is near during his weekly webinar in October to our Advanced Market Signals Tier members. Knox breaks down Bitcoin’s Elliott Wave structure, key RSI signals, and how the DXY (U.S. Dollar Index) could determine what happens next.

Beyond Hyperscalers: Here’s the Next $1 Trillion AI Infrastructure Opportunity

Since 2022, Big Tech capex has been the clearest barometer of AI demand. But the market’s reaction to Google’s latest earnings shows investors are questioning how long that spending can last. While the market frets over hyperscalers’ cash flows, a second wave of AI infrastructure spending has quietly emerged, driven by enterprises and neocloud customers.

Google’s $250 Billion AI Chip Opportunity Takes Aim at Nvidia

In April, there was a major shift in the AI accelerator market, and for once, it didn’t come from Nvidia. Six months later, merchant TPUs are moving from announcement to commercial execution, with Google recognizing its first revenue from TPU systems in Q2 (from a small base). Last quarter, Cloud revenue growth accelerated to 82% for $24.8 billion, compared to $22.5 billion expected. In addition, new details around the TPU 8t show that Google’s threat to Nvidia is not limited to inference. At the time, we pointed out that Google may be one of Nvidia’s strongest AI challengers, as Big Tech is closest to the problems that accelerators must solve. The problem that Google is prioritizing is lower cost per token, with token economics becoming a predominant concern as AI spending is pushing Big Tech’s free cash flows into the red. Below, we discuss two reasons why Google’s AI story is about to change, not from advancements in AI software, but by going after one of the most profitable hardware businesses the tech industry has ever seen.
