look after the bubble bursts, things will go back to-oh hang on a second.
there’s another bub-, oh wait a minute, I think I see another…
Capitalism really is just farting in the bathtub.
Rich people farting in a bathtub
haha, uhhhhmmmm.
I really like the description.
I’m not sure it’s an apt analogy, but the description is undeniably great and I will be using it some form in the future.
oh the bubbles! haha, sorry, I’m in a couple different threads right now.
OK, here goes nothing, going to receive a roasting… TSMC is booked out to high heaven, Nvidia is completely in control of anything AI with no other company coming close to touching them, and at the end of the day, this is all but 1 month in the economy while most P/E for your average business even is near 15 or 20, corresponding to about 200 months. Cisco didn’t have a moat worth a dime and households didn’t even have always-on Internet back then, while Nvidia gets to basically set their price. Sure, AI isn’t turning out to be a great source of profit for AI providers, but Nvidia sells the shovels, not the gold or stakes of land.
Sure 11% is excessive, but I can’t see it drop like a rock any time soon. Because even if AI bursts like a bubble they are still the best at computer graphics by some margin as well, they’ll still be the best at parallel computation. And if that fails, they’re the best at making games do things, they know how to build computers and mobile devices, etc., etc. They made the Nintendo Switch for crying out loud and an RTX in my PC that I haven’t used for anything AI in ages. They’ll be fine.
And one other thing, their P/E ratio was well above 100 a bit more than a year ago. It’s at like 60 now? And the market cap doesn’t really count for anything, I mean VW was the most valuable company in the world during a short squeeze. Cisco’s P/E was apparently 200 at one point.
Look you guys need to stop basing your entire worldview on tweets and opposition to people you don’t like.
Nvidia has spent a very long time building out a concrete advantage when it comes to AI. This advantage is not only in their hardware, but in the tooling they built out. It’ll take years before another competitor becomes truly viable, and NVIDIA isn’t just standing still in the interim.
You’re all also way too bearish on AI. I feel like you just have a blind hatred of “tech bros” and that gives you tunnel vision. AI isn’t crypto, and it neither starts nor ends with Chatbots. While aspects of it are over-hyped, there are still many use cases where it’ll be extremely relevant.
Holy shit we are so fucked.
Did the person who posted this on mastodon not read any of the comments on wsb explaining why this is a stupid comparison?
