Forget about the market reaction for a minutes, which is always difficult to interpret. More holistically, aren't we underestimating their dev ecosystems (CUDA etc.)?

Think of the dev ecosystem effects in all the various permutations, e.g. from Windows or Apple to AWS to more granular like PyTorch.

Those advantages aren't easily eliminated just by more competitors or even 'better' competitors.

Numbers are impressive, not sure why it's down in AH.

What is the case for continued growth of Nvidia? Every single sizeable entity (Google, Microsoft, Intel, AMD, etc.) is working furiously to replace them. I can imagine plenty of reasons that Nvidia sales would remain strong, but I understand less where more growth would come from.

I really don't understand how fiscal years work. We are in Q3 of 2024. Is the AI just predicting what their Q2 2025 results will be?
