Question
Nvidia confirms Vera Rubin GPU entering full production amid $3T-$4T AI capex view
Direct answer
Nvidia management reiterated its multi-year industry projection that global data center modernization and AI hardware deployment will absorb $3 trillion to $4 trillion in capital expenditure through 2030. The forecast comes alongside the formal transition of the Vera Rubin GPU platform into full production. The hardware transition is supported by underlying financial results showing 106% year-over-year revenue expansion and 75% gross margins. The production scale-up provides visibility into hyperscaler accelerator procurement schedules for 2027 server builds. — bullish pressure on SMH.
