Jensen basically hinting here that there is a higher than normal likelihood jalapeño and the next generation chips get canceled due to financing issues…

Salesforce, $CRM, Q2-27.
AI demand accelerated and guidance moved higher, but revenue was only around consensus.
🔴 Revenue: $11.3B | +11% YoY, vs $11.33B est.
🟢 Adj. EPS: $5.90 | +103% YoY, vs $3.27 est.
📈 cRPO: $33.5B | +14% YoY/CC
🤖 Agentforce + Data 360 ARR: ~$3.9B | +210% YoY
$NVDA earnings TLDR:
Revenue: $96.22B vs. ~$92.17B (beat)
Adj. EPS: $2.22 vs. $2.09-$2.10 (beat)
DC: $89.0B vs. ~$86.3B (beat)
Adj. gross margin: 75% vs. 75%
Hyperscaler Revenue: $48.71B from $43.05B last quarter (custom ASIC growth hasn't really prevented this revenue from accelerating)
For guidance:
Revenue: $108B vs. ~$104.2B
Adj. gross margin: 74% vs. 75% (kinda the only soft spot)
Revenue ramp has been genuinely absurd over last 4 quarters.
-> $68.1B
-> $81.6B
-> $96.2B (we are here)
-> next quarter guidance: $108B, despite assuming zero China DC compute revenue.
Fun thing to note is Nvidia says its commitments jumped from $119B last quarter to $279B, primarily related to procurement of memory (for next few years).. So memory goes brrr.
TLDR: AI keeps on going brrr. Nvidia is clearly leading the charge and no obvious signs of demand slowing.
Given Nvidia is already a $5T+ company, I think most of the alpha comes from how Nvidia's architecture/capacity decisions impact elsewhere in the supply chain (eg. CPO, memory, 800V) nowadays.
Rather than simply finding mispricing in Nvidia itself.
Regardless, all the fun stuff happens in the earnings call in a few min.
