- 'People are now recognizing Nvidia's compute has a great deal of residual value,' CEO Jensen Huang tells Deirdre Bosa
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang told Deirdre Bosa that Wall Street is increasingly recognizing the residual value of Nvidia's compute, which could be used to backstop the debt for building data centers. He said the company's systems are widely used, deliver strong performance and are software programmable, so they stay productive for a long time. In August, Nvidia signed memoranda of understanding with six financial institutions, including Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs and KKR, to assemble a $500 billion funding pool for data center infrastructure. Nvidia points to its 6-year-old Ampere chips still drawing customer demand, and Huang said what used to be a four-year life cycle is now probably eight years or more, which could support loans secured against the chips.
- Bitcoin and ethereum prices today, Wednesday, October 21, 2026: Crypto to outperform stocks and gold?
Bitcoin opened at $82,940.14 on October 21, 2026, up 1.3% from Tuesday's open, and rose to $83,292.55 by 7:21 a.m. ET. Ethereum opened at $2,446.67, up 1.7%, and moved to $2,459.92 that morning. Prices have moved little over the past week and a half, though JPMorgan Asset Management expects Bitcoin to outperform stocks and gold over the long term. BlackRock has separately filed for another Bitcoin ETF aimed at investors worried about sharp losses.
- Nvidia's Jensen Huang wants to build AI factories in weeks, not months
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, speaking at Nvidia GTC Berlin, said the new DGX Pod is designed to build AI factories faster and more cheaply, potentially cutting deployment from months to weeks. He said a gigawatt of data center costs about $50 billion, and the 4 to 6 months from shipping components to operation could be shortened by 3 to 4 months if more manufacturing happens in the supply chain, reducing idle cash. Huang argued this would make financing easier because lenders would have more certainty about costs and when revenue starts, which matters amid market volatility over neocloud companies. He said demand is very strong, citing SpaceX, CoreWeave, Nebius and Nscale, and that the large capital tied up before revenue is the key challenge to solve.
- This is the single-biggest obstacle to a SpaceX-Tesla merger: JPMorgan
JPMorgan analyst Rajat Gupta says regulatory approval in China, rather than Tesla shareholder opposition, is the biggest obstacle to a SpaceX-Tesla merger, and the bank has sketched a TikTok-style structural workaround. Special committees have been formed at both Tesla and SpaceX to explore a combination, and JPMorgan's deal math centers on a 30-35% premium to Tesla's current market cap, which would keep Musk above 50% voting control; his TSLA voting stake was lifted to about 20% in June 2026. SpaceX is valued at about $2.0 trillion, up roughly 10% since its IPO, which Gupta calls high-value acquisition currency for an all-stock bid. China accounts for about 20% of Tesla's revenue and a higher share of its EBIT and free cash flow, but only about 10% of the bank's roughly $1.7 trillion sum-of-the-parts valuation, and Starlink has never received operating approval in China.

- Supermicro Brings NVIDIA Aerial RAN Computer Solutions to the Network Edge with Nokia to Enable Low-latency AI Services
Super Micro Computer (SMCI) is working with Nokia to deploy AI-RAN from distributed cell sites to centralized network hubs, combining Nokia's RAN technology, the NVIDIA Aerial RAN Computer platform, and Supermicro infrastructure. The solution lets radio and AI workloads share the same infrastructure, supporting low-latency applications such as voice AI, vision AI, and physical AI. The companies say it can improve spectral efficiency, automate network operations, and optimize energy use, with a software-driven path toward AI-native 6G. Supermicro's dual-node ARC-Pro, with an NVIDIA Grace C1 CPU and RTX PRO 4500 GPU per node, delivers up to 1.6 PFLOPS of FP4 AI performance.
