    • Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and Meta reported a combined total of $58.5B in the June quarter.

    • Investment is mostly towards data centers powered by Nvidia's AI systems.

    • Amazon had the worst performance, projected earnings were also disappointing as the main focus was on AWS cloud.

    • Intel performed 80% below Wall Street projections, revenue dropped 3% in data center.

    • Nvidia is still the most stable player in the AI race.

      • Nvidia provides the "picks and shovels" AI chips powering data centers, fueling the AI gold rush that big tech companies are pouring money into.

      • So no matter what tech company wins the AI race, Nvidia wins :)
