Episode 131: Meta Bets Even Bigger On Nvidia-Powered AI โ Meta and NVDA Stock April 2024
This video delves into Meta's latest earnings report, focusing especially on the guidance for CapEx on AI systems. It appears the market is starting to fret over the "Nvidia tax."
Despite the initial market panic over Meta's stock price drop, the company is actually doing quite well as it benefits from another "year of efficiency." But Nvidia (NVDA) could be a big beneficiary this year as Meta is ramping up spending on AI systems and development.
Chip Stock Investors Nick and Kasey also briefly touch on Meta's Reality Labs segment and its drain on profitability, but how third-party developers could help improve the picture starting next year. Nick and Kasey conclude with optimism for Meta's long-term value, and hint at potential portfolio adjustments in response to CapEx trends in big tech.
