@Sam67024298780 Well the cfo of SoftBank just refuted this rumour just couple minutes ago LOL 😂 and if you want to know the reason behind this change check my profile responding to Jukan latest post
@jukan05 BOOM. Straight from SoftBank Group’s CFO, Yoshimitsu Goto himself:
“It is absolutely untrue that we are defaulting on turbine orders.”
Can we finally put this nonsense to rest?
Elon always tend to exaggerate things
I think people are misunderstanding what actually happened here.
SoftBank initially rushed to secure gas turbines and other power equipment because it expected major supply shortages as AI data centers scaled up.
But as its projects evolved, including the massive Ohio campus, its power infrastructure requirements changed. So it had to restructure some of those equipment orders, resulting in a $3.7B charge.
Here’s the interesting part: SB Energy’s SEC filing says the Ohio gas-fired power plants are expected to be financed through a US-Japan partnership, rather than owned and operated by SB Energy itself.
That could partly explain why the original procurement plans had to change, although management hasn’t explicitly confirmed this.
And SoftBank still has roughly $6.6B allocated to power equipment, plus up to $2.1B in potential future rebates.
So yes, it’s an expensive adjustment. But calling it a default or suggesting AI infrastructure demand is collapsing is a completely different claim, and I haven’t seen evidence supporting that.
I really don’t buy this theory.
NVIDIA is already struggling to meet demand, so why would it suddenly cut TSMC orders?
Even if China were completely cut off tomorrow, I find it hard to believe that hyperscalers, AI labs, enterprises, and sovereign AI customers wouldn’t absorb that additional capacity.
NVIDIA is actively trying to diversify its customer base beyond hyperscalers, not reduce production.
Excited to share that I’ve joined @AnthropicAI! Looking forward to learning from an incredible team and working on exciting problems at the frontier of AI.
LMAOOO 😭😭
So let me get this straight. Jensen has some personal drama, and NVIDIA suddenly decides to cancel billions of dollars in TSMC wafer orders??? 😂
Did Jensen’s personal life suddenly reduce GPU demand? Did Microsoft, Google and Amazon cancel their AI infrastructure plans too? 😭
Even a 12-year-old could come up with a better bearish thesis.
And of course, Jukan works with Citrini, the semiconductor bears. Gotta keep that bearish narrative alive somehow, I guess.
STILL LOVE JUKAN THO ❤️
Come on guys, do you seriously think Amazon, Google or Microsoft are about to default? 😂
You know hedge funds and quant guys use CDS to hedge their positions too, right? Just because CDS spreads are going up doesn’t mean these companies are going bankrupt.
Sure, it’s something to watch, but stop acting like every spike means a financial crisis is coming. And of course ZeroHedge is going to milk this for clicks.
Come on guys, if you actually believe this, you really don’t understand how a company like Nvidia operates. We’re talking about a multitrillion-dollar company with a board of directors, shareholders and corporate governance. You seriously think they’re going to cut billions in chip orders because of the CEO’s personal scandal? What does his private life have to do with wafer demand? This isn’t some banana republic.
Come on man, you know better than this. You really think Bloomberg has all this inside information but somehow nobody knew what was going on with the alleged honeypot? And now every little detail is suddenly a massive scandal? At this point it feels like they’re just stretching the story for clicks. Where’s the actual evidence Jensen did anything wrong?
Come on man, you know better than this. Of course Nvidia is going to fight export controls. Why would any company willingly give up billions in revenue and hand market share to competitors? That’s business, not being pro-China.
And what does any of this have to do with Jensen’s alleged scandal? Congress has been pushing these restrictions for years. Now suddenly we’re supposed to believe it’s all because of that? Come on.
@jukan05 Come on, this is utter nonsense. What does JENSEN alleged misconduct have to do with NVIDIA cutting wafer orders? Where’s the evidence or even the logical connection? You know better than this. Stop amplifying unverified rumors as if they’re credible.
@jukan05 Jensen has already confirmed in his email to NVIDIA employees that he’s staying on as CEO. Nothing to worry about, although the news could cause some short-term volatility in $NVDA.
