What’s really happening at NVIDIA?

The Prompt

About this episode

If you had invested just $500 in Nvidia's IPO back in 1999, you'd be sitting on over $32 million today! That's right, Jim Carter dives into the jaw-dropping story of Nvidia's meteoric rise in this episode of The Prompt.

Nvidia, the tech giant at the forefront of the AI revolution, has been powering everything from gaming consoles to self-driving cars with its cutting-edge chips. Jim breaks down how Nvidia's strategic stock splits over the years have turned modest investments into life-changing fortunes.

But it's not just about the money. Nvidia's technology is the backbone of the AI boom, driving advancements in healthcare, climate research, and autonomous vehicles. Their revenue has skyrocketed from $158 million in 1999 to nearly $27 billion in 2023, with projections to hit $117 billion by 2025. Not to mention, Nvidia's stock has outperformed the S&P 500 with an annualized return of 37.3% over the past 25 years. And for good reason. Nvidia's chips enable breakthroughs that tackle some of the world's biggest challenges.


But this episode isn't just about picking the right stock; it's about believing in innovation and backing the visionaries shaping our future. Jim emphasizes the importance of having the courage to invest in companies driving technological change.


"Nvidia's story is a testament to the incredible potential of technology to change our world for the better." Jim invites listeners to join the conversation about Nvidia's journey and the future of AI in his Fast Foundations Slack community.
