Nvidia’s $460B Value Wipeout Signals Shifting AI Chip Landscape
Nvidia's staggering 1,300% rally since 2022 has hit turbulence. The AI chip giant lost $460 billion in market value within months as competitors carve into its 90% market dominance. Advanced Micro Devices secured landmark contracts with OpenAI and Oracle, projecting $26 billion in 2026 data center revenue - a 60% surge.
The erosion runs deeper. Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft - accounting for 40% of Nvidia's revenue - are now developing in-house chips. Google's Gemini AI already runs on proprietary tensor processors. "When chips cost $30,000 each, clients will seek alternatives," notes Jonestrading's Michael O'Rourke. The trillion-dollar question: Can Nvidia maintain its stranglehold as the AI arms race decentralizes?
