What stands out

On Schwab Network Kevin Hincks said Nvidia is "catching its breath," and Tom White offered the bearish counterpoint, with both using options trades to make the case. The debate matters because Nvidia's Vera Rubin chip and its graphics processing unit (GPU) franchise sit at the center of the artificial intelligence (AI) boom; whether Nvidia keeps GPU market share determines if this pause is a consolidation or a topping move. The company’s fundamentals are extreme, revenue and profits have been growing at roughly 102% and 264% year-over-year, so the conversation is about sizing conviction, not whether growth exists.
