Nvidia Q4: Range Bound and Looking for a Catalyst
Compared to any other stock on Wall Street, Nvidia reported an exceptional quarter. Yet, Nvidia’s stock is competing with itself at this point, and when compared to previous Nvidia earnings reports, Q4 and Q1 represent a pause in the fireworks. Nvidia reported $11 billion in Blackwell revenue, however, Huang finally admitted the NVL systems are in production (i.e., not shipping in volume). Rather, other SKUs are making up Blackwell revenue for now. According to a discussion with an analyst, Nvidia foresees NVL systems and the next generation Blackwell Ultra ramping “simultaneously” -- which increases the pressure to deliver this fiscal year given there was a “couple months” delay with the NVL systems. Fortunately, for the I/O Fund, we use technicals to reduce risk. When there is a change in story, even if it’s transitory by a quarter or two, we rely on technicals to protect our position while maximizing the upside. As you know, we are exposed to Nvidia -- yet heavily exposed when you consider its ecosystem.
