Leader of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Nvidia (Nvda 1.71%)) had a solid 2024. During the year, analysts debated the height of its data center income to increase as it deploys new products. Hyperscaler customers have continued to increase capital expenses to build a power center calculation power.

Rather than wondering how the latest NVIDIA IA fleas sales took place, some investors cared more How to invest in Deepseek and his claims that he created a Very efficient large language model (LLM) With only $ 6 million in capital.
