Five charts to start your day

Is NVIDIA's stock price heading for the moon or the stars?

NVIDIA's market capitalisation has vastly outstripped that of Intel. An odd comparison? Not to me! Growing up, both brands featured prominently during my teenage years: Intel with its lineup of Pentium processors and NVIDIA with its graphics cards.

Now, I know I published this chart last week, but I simply had to animate it. The static version didn't do justice to the story this chart tells.

So, what's the story? Intel has ceded territory to Apple Silicon and its arch-nemesis AMD. By contrast, NVIDIA has surged from the starting blocks. Looking back, it's quite astonishing, really. NVIDIA took its time to reach its current stature. It has consistently evolved and shifted its business focus from gaming to AI applications and data centres. Cast your eyes over chart four to see how it data centres are taking off.
