The Meteoric Rise of Nvidia [Fastest Growing Stock]

Correction at @30:20 I said Microsoft when it should be Intel. Thanks for watching and Merry Christmas everyone!

Been beating myself up a bit that I sold my 53 shares of NVDA at $303 each back in May 2023. Now thinking of liquidating a few other investments to rebuy but afraid to do so. I also currently have 500k in savings making me next to nothing.

It's insane how this video mentions the 1.2 trillion market cap, when 2 months later its now worth 2 trillion

It scares me how much the industry relies on a single company: TSMC. It’s the backbone of the technology age and it’s no good to have so much leverage on a single player…

On Jensen Huang's comment on not starting the company again if he had a do-over, George Bernard Shaw said that youth is wasted on the young but if we did not have crazy young people starting companies that were impossible, nothing would ever progress. I was afraid to do that when I was a young engineer but now I know for sure I could never do it because I have something to lose. I tell that to post-docs, interns and summer students with ambitions because if they fail, they fail early and can bounce back learning in the process. Once they get too experienced, they get jaded and won't try.

I want to put in a word for Dagogo - his style of reporting is the Best! No silly American splash & tinsle, No overwhelming background effects (I could go on) - Just straight & to the point, clear language. Dagogo should be cloned, his copies replacing so many others. I wish him the best - of course!

For a Billion+ company, their controversies seem very minor. Huang actually seems to care about his employees which is quite rare in companies of that scale. For countless companies, theres an 'event horizon' where it gets large and people become just numbers on a spreadsheet; liquidated as needed to improve the bottom-line. Very impressive leadership.

SEGA'S CEO is a G for doing a massive favour to NVIDIA.😮

IT's really important to note that Nvidia also is said to be one of the best places to work in the tech industry. We think they take advantage of their customers a lot, and there is some truth to that but it's also true that their employees are pampered as hell and a lot are became millionaires quickly. Like it or not Jensen is a pretty dang good CEO to his employees.

The stock is still rated as a buy and the price target has been raised once again. Pretty incredible to see Nvidia grow from the beginning.

As someone into tech, you may want to check out the Amiga's GPU in 1984. That home PC also pioneered a lot of stuff taken for granted, now. A computer that could simultaneously display thousands of colors at once was cool, but the GPU & other custom chips allowed multitasking & graphics that was hard to find anywhere else - until the mid-90s

I usually watch ColdFusion videos even though I know the video will be an information I already know. That is the power of story telling

00:03 Nvidia's exponential growth and industry influence 02:32 Nvidia's founding idea - using parallel processing for GPUs 07:17 Nvidia's risky investment paid off handsomely 09:34 Nvidia's NV1 chip failed to capture the market's attention due to its complexity and lack of support for emerging technologies. 14:07 Nvidia's success was driven by its GPU technology and strategic partnerships. 16:38 Nvidia's CUDA toolkit simplified GPU programming and expanded applications beyond graphics 21:03 Nvidia's chip technology impacts various fields 23:11 Nvidia diversifies from mobile chips to self-driving cars and gaming. 27:17 Nvidia faced controversies over pricing and leadership challenges 29:16 Nvidia has seen massive growth due to AI, but faces competition and potential supply chain issues.

The Tegra x4 was actually in the early Nintendo Switch models, the amount of documentation on the Tegra that was used is why the first gen switches are and always will be hackable.

I’m happy that AMD and Intel are giving them some much needed competition

I think they’re a very impressive company. Every company that gets this far goes through scandal and difficult times. Learned a lot from this video. Thank you Dagogo!

13:50 Nvidia didn't enter the PC graphics market in 1999 with the Geforce 256. They had their "Riva" line before that that competed with 3Dfx somewhat.

I didn't know about NVIDIA employees getting raises during the COVID crashes. My respect for them went up quite a bit. It seems most of their controversies are more inter-corporate or public-facing, but internally, they really seem to take care of their own.

"Selling shovels in a gold rush". Much respect to Dagogo for his intelligence 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Merry Christmas mate 8 years in we've been watching you. Thank you for your videos and have a lovely year.
