Tonight, one company can add or erase

0:03

about $250 billion in market value in an

0:06

instant.

0:11

That company is Nvidia. And Wall Street

0:14

is going to determine the upswing or the

0:17

loss. And they're basically telling

0:19

Nvidia, "Show me $39 billion in profit

0:23

or I pull my investment." If you buy and

0:25

sell tech stocks, you're in the tech

0:27

sector. If you're affected by AI in any

0:30

way, the earnings report tomorrow is the

0:32

only one that matters right now. I'm

0:34

going to give you the exact numbers to

0:36

watch, the bull case, the bare case, and

0:39

what actually matters when the headline

0:41

hits tomorrow at 5:00 p.m. First, I want

0:43

to accentuate this is not normal

0:46

earnings season noise. This is very

0:49

different. Nvidia is currently sitting

0:51

around a $3.2 trillion

0:54

valuation. And you're saying, "But Dr.

0:56

Where did you get that $250 billion

0:59

number for that made me click on this

1:01

video? Well, simple. If there's an 8%

1:03

post earnings move, whether that goes up

1:05

or down, that's roughly a $250 billion

1:08

swing. So, put differently, one print

1:12

can gain or lose how much most Fortune

1:14

500 companies are worth total. That's

1:16

exceptional. That's not about one

1:18

ticker. That's about changing and

1:20

remapping the entire market topology.

1:22

and we're about to price in what that AI

1:25

optimism is actually worth versus how

1:28

much it's valued on the market. So,

1:30

that's a lot of hot takes, but let's

1:32

talk about the concrete numbers. Total

1:34

revenue, we're expecting about 39

1:36

billion. EPS roughly 84 expected. Data

1:40

center revenue roughly $34 billion

1:42

expected. If Nvidia beats all three and

1:45

raises guidance, the Bulls stay in

1:46

control. All is good. And although the

1:49

bubble has popped, the finances haven't

1:51

caught up at least tomorrow. If they

1:53

miss any of these, especially guidance,

1:57

that rewrites the whole story. And yes,

1:59

in case you're wondering, if the stock

2:01

beats, that can also negatively impact

2:03

the stock price as well. A lot of the

2:05

time, you will see a stock dip

2:07

immediately after earnings. Even if they

2:09

beat and even if the guidance is good.

2:11

So even if everything goes swimmingly

2:13

well, it could still go south for

2:15

Nvidia. Probably not 8% south. they'd

2:17

have to miss one or more of those

2:19

numbers by a wide margin and guidance

2:21

would have to look uncertain. But we're

2:23

still talking a pretty big swing even if

2:25

they beat numbers. Uh that's still in

2:26

the cards. But like I said, the earnings

2:29

are one part of the equation, but the

2:30

guidance is maybe the thing that the

2:33

Wall Street investors are going to be

2:34

valuing even more right now. Strength is

2:37

priced in. There's so much money flowing

2:40

into the AI sector. All of this flows

2:43

down to Nvidia. They are the chip

2:45

manufacturer. They are giving out chip

2:46

deals with people. They are the roads

2:49

which the entire AI infrastructure run

2:52

on. So the bar isn't good. It's great.

2:55

And so the exact number we're looking

2:57

for there, if guidance clears about 40

2:59

billion, we're probably all good. We're

3:02

probably all good. And we've delayed the

3:04

finance part of the bubble pop until

3:06

another quarter. If guidance comes in at

3:09

high30s or below, it's going to be a

3:11

crazy time because not only is this

3:13

going to negatively impact Nvidia, which

3:15

has this insane high valuation, could be

3:18

a $250 billion swing easy. That's

3:20

definitely within the cards if things go

3:22

south, but it's going to affect the

3:24

entire AI sector. They're inextricably

3:27

linked with all of the hyperscalers,

3:29

publicly traded companies, as well as

3:31

the private markets, too. So, there's

3:32

not really going to be a great way to

3:34

stash your cash cash if this goes south.

3:37

at least in tech related to AI, related

3:39

to AI infrastructure, related to the

3:42

tech. Uh this is going to be really

3:44

sideways if they come in at high30s or

3:47

even lower than that cuz remember

3:49

they're trading at a very high multiple

3:51

and Wall Street is paying for premium

3:53

multiples which means they want premium

3:55

returns on their money. No one is paying

3:57

for adequate at least for Nvidia and

4:00

because Nvidia controls so much of this

4:03

infrastructure. This is basically a read

4:05

through on the hyperscaler capex as

4:07

well. Remember hyperscalers spent about

4:10

$200 billion uh on AI infrastructure

4:13

this year. The projections based on the

4:15

earnings from those major hyperscalers

4:16

is something around $630 billion. I

4:20

still am just shocked every time I say

4:22

that number. And if Nvidia is not

4:24

confident, if they don't guide well,

4:27

that's going to have a lot of investors

4:28

start to ask questions like, are we

4:30

overbuilding? Are we getting ahead of

4:32

ourselves? The right questions that they

4:34

should have been asking all along. But

4:35

right now, everyone is so deeply

4:37

invested in this, so highly leveraged

4:40

that you don't want to ask those

4:41

questions because they could bring up

4:42

uncomfortable answers, but they'll be

4:43

forced to face them if they don't guide

4:45

strong tomorrow. So the bullcase, this

4:47

is the bullcase for Nvidia. The demand

4:49

is going to stay constrained. you you

4:51

can't do anything to change that. Nvidia

4:54

cannot produce chips fast enough to suit

4:56

market needs. We know that this is one

4:58

of the reasons all the hyperscalers

5:00

other than breaking up monopoly are

5:02

trying to develop their own chips or

5:03

working with other chip firms to try to

5:05

displace Nvidia. Gross margins stay

5:07

elite. Think mid70s territory. Blackwell

5:10

ramps cleanly and guidance moves up, not

5:12

sideways. If that happens, boys and

5:14

girls, we are we are pumping on this. Uh

5:16

the bubble is inflating a little bit

5:18

more. The pop is going to be bigger. the

5:20

bare case. Honestly, we're still going

5:22

to have strong growth, but we're going

5:23

to see that decelerating versus comps as

5:26

these other competitors enter the market

5:28

and scale up to eminence. People aren't

5:31

just mysteriously going to stop using

5:33

Nvidia chips tomorrow, even if they have

5:34

a really bad earnings call. the

5:36

management tone and the branding and the

5:38

PR you're going to start to see from

5:39

Jensen and other Nvidia execs is going

5:41

to shift from something more like demand

5:44

is exceeding our capability to produce

5:46

these to words like balanced predicted

5:51

those sorts of things. So here's my

5:52

framework. We're going to get a video up

5:54

within a couple of hours after that

5:56

earning call ends. Make sure you're

5:58

subscribed. Hit the bell notification to

5:59

be notified as soon as that video drops

6:02

tomorrow after Nvidia earnings. We'll

6:04

break down all of the numbers and what

6:05

it means for the market. But I I'll tell

6:07

you my framework or script for going

6:09

into this is a few things I'm looking

6:11

out for. One, I care more about the

6:13

guide than the beat. What do they think

6:15

this looks like going forward? What's

6:16

their proof for assuming that? And can

6:18

they sway investors? And I care more

6:20

about margin durability than EPS. We

6:23

know 3/4 worth of earnings will cap off

6:26

with their general statements about the

6:28

entire fiscal year, but ultimately

6:30

Nvidia is probably going to do pretty

6:33

well. I assume they're going to beat,

6:35

but are they able to preserve the margin

6:36

that they're operating at? And I care a

6:39

lot about management tone. We've already

6:42

see Jensen, he's obviously working with,

6:45

I'm sure, a small army of PR people, and

6:47

the phrasing of these things are is

6:49

becoming very important. how he says

6:51

things, how he appears in front of the

6:53

media because so much of the valuation

6:55

is contingent upon that. He had he is

6:58

not a con man. You can watch my profile

7:00

piece on him. I don't think he's a con

7:01

man. But by the definition of the word,

7:04

he is a con man. He's a confidence man.

7:05

His job is to portray confidence in this

7:07

company so that the AI bubble doesn't

7:09

pop. So bottom line, it is well within

7:13

the realm of possibility for Nvidia to

7:15

swing 250 billion up or down. who knows

7:19

after tomorrow. That's my analysis for

7:22

the margin of the upside and the

7:23

downside for this. And if it loses 250

7:26

billion in value, that is going to

7:28

change the AI market for a few weeks. A

7:32

lot of companies are going to be hurting

7:33

as a result of that. But I think the

7:36

bubble will still limp along. I think

7:38

Nvidia will come back and recover for a

7:40

couple of quarters before we really see

7:42

this house of cards fall down. If you

Interactive Summary

Nvidia's upcoming earnings report is exceptionally critical, as it could lead to a $250 billion swing in its market value, affecting the entire AI sector. Wall Street is scrutinizing total revenue (expected around $39 billion), EPS (expected $0.84), and data center revenue (expected $34 billion), with guidance being even more crucial than current numbers. A strong guidance above $40 billion signals continued growth, while guidance in the high $30s or lower could negatively impact not only Nvidia but also the entire AI infrastructure, given its high valuation and control over the sector. The management's tone and confidence are also vital for maintaining investor trust and the AI bubble's stability.
