Industry Analysis
NVIDIA’s seemingly elevated valuation actually prices in a structural leap in AI compute demand. Its deep integration with 3nm and EUV processes is forcing TSMC (Taiwan, China) to accelerate CoWoS advanced packaging capacity, raising the barrier to entry across the entire HPC stack. While U.S. export controls temporarily shield its tech premium, they’re pushing Chinese GPU firms toward chiplet-based heterogeneous integration—potentially nurturing non-CUDA alternatives. Facing AMD’s MI300 and Intel’s Gaudi3, NVIDIA is preemptively locking down inference markets with Blackwell Ultra, but software moats will decide the war. Over the next 18 months, as global datacenter capex pivots sharply toward AI, its exceptional ROE and negligible debt will translate into unmatched supply-chain leverage, reinforcing dominance amid geopolitical turbulence.
