Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, and Meta Just Gave Nvidia Investors Great News
Key Points Nvidia's top-tier clients are investing huge amounts of money in AI development, and they're partnering with Nvidia. Several large tech stocks reported strong earnings last week. Nvidia reports at the end of the month and it tends to beat guidance. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › Last week was a busy one for tech followers. Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META), Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), and Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) all reported second-quarter earnings, and while they were mostly positive in different ways, artificial intelligence (AI) continued to be a strong trend. That's great news for Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) investors. Let's see what's happening and why investors should get excited about what Nvidia will have to say when it reports quarterly earnings later this month. Winning with AI AI has become an enormous growth driver for tech companies, and really all kinds of companies. It unlocks productivity and aids in creativity in ways that make it essential if a company doesn't want to be left behind. Amazon said that its AI business through the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud division continues to grow at triple digits year over year, "with more demand than we have supplied for at the moment." It's launching all sorts of new features as demand grows and changes, and releasing powerful new tools aimed at developers creating large language models and in need of the highest-power AI chips. It also boasted that it rolled out new EC2 instances, a type of virtual server on the AWS cloud supported by new Nvidia Blackwell "super chips," the most powerful graphics processing units (GPUs) on AWS. Amazon spent $31.4 billion on capital expenditures, which it says is a reasonable estimate for the back half of the year. Although that could be in many parts of the business, it said the AI business is where most of it is going. That means it could be spending even more than the original $100 billion it said it would spend in 2025. Microsoft boasted that its Azure cloud business is grabbing market share, up 34% year over year in the 2024 fiscal fourth quarter (ended June 30), and that it now has 400 data centers, the most of any other cloud business. Management highlighted that while there's industry talk about the first gigawatt or multi-gigawatt data centers, it launched two gigawatts of power in its data centers over the past 12 months, and it's scaling faster than the competition. At Meta, CEO Mark Zuckerberg discussed many exciting developments in AI, including the launch of Meta Superintelligence Labs, which combines all of the company's AI efforts, and progress on upgrades to its Llama LLMs. In April, Nvidia announced its own involvement in the new Llama developments. Zuckerberg said Meta is working on the next generation of products "that will push the frontier in the nextyear or so." Meta has made headlines over the last few weeks as it crafts a team of AI specialists it's been pulling from rival companies. Apple continues to disappoint, or at least confuse, investors with its AI developments. It's taking its time to develop an AI infrastructure that rivals the competition, and it's questionable whether or not it's losing ground or if it's going to eventually release something different and special, which is its signature. Management said it's making substantial investments in AI and that its capital expenditures are going to increase. Although investors seemed disappointed in Apple's AI updates, there's no question that it provided an excellent report, beating expectations on the top and bottom lines, and it's likely to report progress in Apple Intelligence over the coming quarters. Driving AI The common denominator here is Nvidia, which partners with all of these companies. It provides the power for Amazon's and Microsoft's clientele to develop potent LLMs and AI agents, and they also use Nvidia GPUs for the data centers that drive their own LLMs. Meta uses Nvidia's GPUs for its own LLMs and AI agents, and Apple partners with Nvidia for its AI business as well. Nvidia is guiding for sales to increase about 50% over last year in the fiscal second quarter, which it will report on Aug. 27. Its quarterly results usually beat guidance, but with the success and continued capital investments of its top-tier clients, it's very likely that it will beat sales guidance and give shareholders a strong outlook.

AI Boom, Entry-Level Bust: Why College Grads Are Struggling to Land Jobs
As artificial intelligence transforms the job market, recent college graduates are finding it harder to land entry-level roles in competitive fields like tech and finance — even with strong résumés and top internships. Economists point to a surge in AI adoption, along with a slowdown in post-pandemic hiring, as key factors driving unemployment among college grads above the national average. Financial leaders like Centerview Partners' Blair Effron warn that although the AI revolution will boost long-term productivity, short-term impacts on employment will be swift and dramatic.

Former Tesla Executives Create Data Center Firm DensityAI
(Bloomberg) -- Former leaders of Tesla Inc.'s supercomputer program have started a new artificial intelligence company focused on data center services for industries from automotive to robotics, according to people familiar with the matter. All Hail the Humble Speed Hump Mayor Asked to Explain $1.4 Billion of Wasted Johannesburg Funds Three Deaths Reported as NYC Legionnaires' Outbreak Spreads Major Istanbul Projects Are Stalling as City Leaders Sit in Jail PATH Train Service Resumes After Fire at Jersey City Station DensityAI, which is poised to come out of stealth soon, is in talks to raise hundreds of millions of dollars, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the information is private. The startup was founded by Ganesh Venkataramanan — the former head of Tesla's Dojo team — and ex-Tesla employees Bill Chang and Ben Floering. Representatives of DensityAI didn't provide comment. The startup is working on chips, hardware and software that will power data centers for AI that are used in robotics, by AI agents and in automotive applications, among other sectors, the people said. Roughly 20 former members of Tesla's Dojo project — including some senior-level individuals — have joined DensityAI, the people said, along with other engineers from across the technology industry. Martin Viecha, Tesla's former head of investor relations, has also joined the startup as an adviser, the people said. Dojo is Tesla's in-house effort for chips and servers that power data centers. The initiative's computing capabilities are used to train Tesla's neural networks used in its autonomous driving software and humanoid robotics projects. Tesla's shares erased earlier postmarket gains and were little changed as of 6:28 p.m. in New York. (Updates with postmarket shares, adds detail on DensityAI's objectives from first paragraph.)
