NVIDIA: AI Growth Is Still Strong — But Margins Are the Question NVIDIA continues to dominate the AI infrastructure story, with another record quarter highlighting just how strong demand for accelerated computing remains. 🚀 Key numbers: • Revenue: $96.22B, up 106% YoY • Data Center growth: +117% YoY • Gross margin: around 75% • Rubin is moving closer to full production • Shares initially gained around 4% after hours But there’s an interesting catch… NVIDIA expects gross margins to come under pressure, potentially reaching the 71–72% range, largely because of higher component costs.

Q3: My positioning right now * Staying invested, not panic selling * Adding slowly on red days * Holding some cash for bigger dips
