“Robot as a service” is a phrase investors should start getting familiar with, because the world is quickly moving toward robotics in both the home and workplace. At this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES), robotics companies showed off a wide range of innovations across cleaning, delivery, food and beverage service, and other tasks that are ripe for automation. One of those companies was RichTech Robotics, which highlighted its collaboration with Nvidia to power its line of AI-driven service robots. To be clear, RichTech and Nvidia are not developing robots side by side. Instead, RichTech relies on Nvidia’s hardware and software ecosystem to give its robots the processing power and intelligence needed to handle real-world applications. By leaning on Nvidia’s platforms,...
AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) Analysis AST SpaceMobile is aiming to be disruptor in the communications market, attempting to deliver space based coverage directly to peoples’ cell phones. If you’re familiar with StarLink, which focuses on satellite based internet, this is similar but more geared towards cell phone connections. The company is positioning itself as a frontrunner in the sector, aiming to launch continuous service in the U.S. by late 2025, a key reason the stock has drawn so much attention. Still, much of that excitement remains speculative, given that no service has been fully delivered yet. On the positive side, ASTS already has five commercial-grade satellites in orbit, demonstrating real progress, with another 45–60 scheduled for launch in 2026. Reviewing the...
Nvidia Pre-earnings Analysis Artificial intelligence leaders have been under pressure recently as worries of a potential AI Bubble surface. Comments from OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman kicked off the worries, when he spoke in an interview and said: “Are we in a phase where investors as a whole are overexcited about AI? My opinion is yes.” The comment sent stocks like Nvidia, AMD, TSMC, and other prominent stocks on the market sharply lower, right ahead of Nvidia’s expected earnings date. Over the next ten years, global AI infrastructure spending is expected to exceed $7 trillion ($5 trillion in the next five years alone) the majority of it being on data centers (this is why data centers are a big part of...
Target Post-earnings Analysis Shares of the big-box retailer Target fell after the company lower store traffic and a slight miss on gross margins. The stock is now down more than 60% from its five year highs, but as it trades near the 2020 pandemic crash lows, the question becomes whether or not it is worth investing into. Where the trouble started:Over the past five years, Target has had to deal with changing consumer behavior. As inflation eroded consumer spending abilities, they turned to cheaper alternatives like the Walmarts and discount stores available. Target’s heavy reliance on discretionary items (like apparel and decor) became a burden and backfired amid cautious, inflation-hit spending. To battle this, the company was forced to incur...
