    Nvidia Data Center Revenue Up 117% YoY as Alphabet Commits $5B to Waymo Expansion

    Question

    Nvidia Data Center Revenue Up 117% YoY as Alphabet Commits $5B to Waymo Expansion

    Direct answer

    Nvidia continues to see strong compute demand across enterprise and cloud hyperscalers, with data center revenue advancing 117% YoY as Blackwell ramps and Rubin architectures enter deployment roadmaps. Alphabet's concurrent $5 billion multi-year capital commitment to Waymo highlights extended compute and hardware infrastructure requirements. The combination of 82% revenue growth in Google Cloud and ongoing physical AI scaling demonstrates sustained capital deployment across enterprise compute layers. — bullish pressure on SPY.
