Thank God It’s Friday: A Market Note
Thank God it’s Friday!
On the business front, Wall Street closed the week on an interesting note. This week, NVIDIA crossed an unbelievable milestone: a market capitalization of over $4 trillion. That’s right, trillion with a “T.” It’s a feat no other company in financial market history has achieved with such quiet strength.
NVIDIA, known initially for its brilliant graphics chips for gamers, is now dominating in the realm of AI and server-grade processors. The company has transitioned from powering video games to powering the future. What makes it even more remarkable is how quietly it has risen. Most people can’t even name its CEO. (For the record, it’s Jensen Huang.) And honestly, that’s exactly what you want in a publicly traded company, consistency, focus, and execution without the noise.
Contrast that with someone like Elon Musk of Tesla and SpaceX fame. Elon is a genius, no doubt, but he’s also the king of market-moving headlines, sometimes intentionally, other times not. When a CEO is constantly in the news, it can affect the stock dramatically in both directions. That kind of volatility might excite traders, but it gives long-term investors heartburn.
Maybe Elon could take a page or two from Jensen Huang’s book. Build, innovate, lead, but do it without making every move a spectacle.
Anyway, just some thoughts to wrap up a busy week. Stay blessed, stay focused, and always remember Who’s really in charge, on Wall Street and in life. God is.
