Nvidia delivered a bullish outlook, easing AI bubble fears and lifting global stocks and futures, with particular gains in Korean memory names. Geopolitical risks remain in focus: Russia is preparing to escalate attacks on Ukraine, while Iran-Oman progress on the Strait of Hormuz is pressuring oil prices. Qantas CEO Vanessa Hudson discussed the carrier's fleet renewal plans, and the show also covered Shein and Dangote IPO developments.
- Nvidia beat earnings expectations and guided to about 70% revenue growth in fiscal 2028.
- Asian equities rose for a third day, led by South Korean tech and memory names like Samsung Electronics.
- Japanese upstream chipmakers lost favor on concerns about Nvidia margin pressure.
- Hot PCE data raised expectations for a hawkish Fed tone at Jackson Hole and higher front-end yields.
- Qantas CEO outlined A380 retirement and A350/787 fleet renewal to expand premium long-haul routes.
- Iran-Oman revenue-sharing progress eased Strait of Hormuz flows and pressured Brent crude.
- Russia-Ukraine escalation risks and Black Sea infrastructure attacks kept geopolitical risk elevated.
- Shein's Hong Kong IPO and Dangote refinery listing were highlighted as major capital-markets events.
Идеи
Nvidia demand strong; supply limits growth.
Nvidia's results were strong enough to ease AI bubble fears: quarterly revenue more than doubled to over $96 billion, EPS of $2.22 beat estimates, and the CFO guided to roughly 70% revenue growth in fiscal 2028. Demand is not the issue; supply chain constraints are capping even faster growth, while gross margin may slip from around 75% to 72% but remains exceptionally high.
Samsung benefits from surging memory costs.
Nvidia's supply constraints highlight surging memory costs going forward, specifically benefiting Samsung Electronics, whose shares rose about 5% as Korean memory names gain from AI demand.
Japanese chipmakers face Nvidia margin pressure.
Upstream Japanese chipmakers are losing favor because Nvidia's margin pressure is expected to feed through and pressure these suppliers, even as Korean memory makers gain.
AI trade intact, but rotate across names.
Nvidia's results confirm the AI narrative still has legs, but Nvidia is one of the cheapest Magnificent 7 names on P/E, showing investors are unwilling to make concentrated single-name AI bets. The AI trade should be played rotationally across sectors and names, with Nasdaq increasingly focused on rotational leadership.
Front-end Treasury yields risk rising.
After hot PCE data boosted bets on a Fed hike by year-end, the Fed is likely to sound hawkish at Jackson Hole. The risk is that yields rise further on the front end.
Qantas fleet renewal improves long-haul economics.
Qantas is doubling down on fleet renewal, retiring A380s from mid-2028 and adding A350-1000 and 787 next-generation aircraft with higher premium seat density, better fuel efficiency and new ultra-long-haul routes such as Sydney-London and more US, Europe and South Africa points. Existing ultra-long-haul routes like Perth-London already perform best on yield and customer satisfaction.
Oil pressured as Hormuz flows ease.
Brent crude is down about 7% for the week as the Iran-Oman revenue-sharing agreement, U.S. naval escorts and an interim mechanism allow more ships through the Strait of Hormuz in the next 30-60 days. The picture is more positive near term even though it is a ceasefire rather than a full resolution and Iranian risk remains.
