Thoughts on AI Chip Supply Constraints & NVDA's Q3
It's increasingly clear that the bottleneck for significant AI scaling right now isn't demand, but chip supply, particularly from Nvidia. Given the lead times and the current build-out pace of major players, I'd put the odds at about 70% that we see continued mentions of supply constraints impacting growth forecasts in upcoming Q3 reports, specifically from companies leveraging high-end GPUs. This persistent scarcity could actually help sustain $NVDA's premium valuation, despite the broader market's potential for consolidation, as their moat remains incredibly strong.
I'm with you on this. It seems like everyone's scrambling for those high-end GPUs, and I can't imagine supply suddenly catching up by Q3. Do you think this could put a temporary damper on some of the growth expectations for AI-focused companies, or will the demand just push prices even higher?
