Nvidia $NVDA CEO Jensen Huang just said this about China

"The China market, I've estimated, to be about $50 Billion opportunity for us this year" ... "you would expect it to grow say, 50% per year" "It is the second largest computing market in the world, and it is also the home of about 50% of the world's AI researchers, the vast majority of the leading open source models are created into China. And so it's fairly important, I think, for the American technology companies to be able to address that market." Source: Evan

Nvidia $NVDA said sales to just one customer represented 23% of its total $46.7 Billion of revenue from the quarter‼️

Someone spent $10.75 Billion with Nvidia during the quarter 😨 Half of $NVDA data center revenues this quarter tied to just two customers - Most likely amazon $AMZN and microsoft $MSFT 🤔... Source: Evan

The US just sold $70 billion of 5-year Treasuries.

The Bid-to-Cover ratio was 2.36. Foreign buyers pulled back but US buyers stepped up in record size. Here's the breakdown: • Foreign accounts (called “Indirects”) bought 60.5%. • Domestic institutions (called “Directs”) bought a record 30.7%. • Dealers (big banks) bought only 8.8%, the lowest ever. Now here’s the twist: even though the auction was definitely a poor one, the bond market rallied afterwards. 10-year Treasury yields actually dropped. Why? Because traders were braced for worse. “Not awful” was good enough to spark a rally. Source: StockMarket.news
