Min Choi, industry influencer, reports that Nvidia has committed over $40 billion in AI equity deals this year as part of its strategy to secure its own supply chain, rather than to diversify its portfolio.
According to Choi, major allocations include $30 billion to OpenAI, $2 billion to CoreWeave, $4 billion to optical suppliers Coherent and Lumentum, up to $2.1 billion in equity options and $3.4 billion in cloud services for IREN, and up to $3.2 billion to another party. These financial moves underscore Nvidia's focus on maintaining control over key segments of the AI supply infrastructure.
Choi previously noted that Google Cloud posted $20.0 billion in revenue as AI product sales surged nearly 800% year over year, limited by compute supply here. In an earlier analysis, he reported on Google’s $900 million investment in SpaceX, which may be valued at $140 billion as the firm considers a $2 trillion IPO here. Both reports highlight previous large-scale technology investments tracked by Choi.
