Nvidia’s Revenue Surge: SpaceX Fuels a Chip Frenzy

Nvidia’s fresh revenue outlook has Wall Street convinced that SpaceX’s chip appetite is the massive engine driving the forecast.

The Space Industry’s Chip Hunger

SpaceX plans to spend $5 billion on chips next year and wants to consolidate its supply under a single roof, committing exclusively to Nvidia.

Nvidia’s Financials Hit a New High

■Projected $30 billion revenue for fiscal 2024, a 15% jump from last year’s $26 billion.

Ripple Effects on Rivals and the Supply Chain

■AMD and Intel face pressure to engage in aggressive pricing battles in the high‑performance GPU arena.

■TSMC is expanding its 5nm fab capacity to meet Nvidia’s surge in demand.

■Chip shortage risk may trigger new long‑term agreements with memory suppliers Samsung and SK Hynix.

Investors’ Tactical Moves

■Institutional investors have increased Nvidia holdings by 12%, with an average purchase price of $210.

■In the options market, call contracts are up 18%, while put contracts have slipped 5%.

Mert Yılmaz – Nvidia’s low leverage, robust cash generation, and a customer base that includes high‑growth players like SpaceX reinforce its moat, making the stock a resilient long‑term holding even in market turbulence. The concurrent rise in chip demand across the space and AI sectors expands the moat further, setting the stage for a sustainable upward price trajectory.
