Investment Thesis
NVDA โ€” NVIDIA Corporation
NVIDIA is the foundational infrastructure layer of the AI era. Data Center revenue reached $193.7B in FY2026, up 66% YoY, powered by insatiable demand for Blackwell B200 GPUs across hyperscalers and sovereign AI programs. The company generates $96.7B in annual free cash flow with 71% gross margins and 56% net margins, making it the most profitable semiconductor business in history. At P/E 37.7x vโ€ฆ
TSLA โ€” Tesla, Inc.
Tesla remains the most polarizing stock in markets. The core auto business is deteriorating: FY2025 revenue fell 2.9% to $94.8B, net income dropped 46.8% to $3.8B, and Q4 deliveries declined 15.6% YoY to 418K units. Yet the stock trades at 13.6x TTM P/S (near 5yr highs) on the optionality of Cybercab robotaxis launching April 2026, FSD reaching unsupervised status in Austin, and Optimus humanoid โ€ฆ
