This signals continued disagreement over how much future AI growth is already reflected in the valuation. Billionaires’ differing NVIDIA trades
- Negative Sentiment: Investors are questioning the risk of NVIDIA financing data centers that are expected to purchase NVIDIA equipment. Critics characterize this as a circular financing structure that could increase credit exposure and make reported AI demand harder to evaluate.
