Nvidia rallies on ambitions to bring AI into the real world

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang unveiled new gaming chips and talked up AI’s capabilities and the scope for integrating this technology more deeply into the physical world during his keynote speech at CES 2025 on Monday evening.

Shares of the company jumped more than 3% in the premarket, bringing its year-to-date gains above 13% less than four trading days into the year.

Nvidia is creating a “world foundational model,” dubbed Cosmos (which is available on GitHub under an open-model license), which it hopes will do for robotics what ChatGPT did for language. This, of course, would open up new frontiers of possible growth for the $3 trillion-plus company, with an eye toward revolutionizing robotics and manufacturing.

“It’s really about teaching the AI — not about generating creative content, but teaching the AI to understand the physical world,” Huang said.

SpaceX gets a wave of bullish ratings from Wall Street analysts

SpaceX received more than a dozen positive analyst calls on Tuesday — including from major Wall Street banks — as they initiate coverage on Elon Musk’s space and AI company.

SpaceX went public on June 12 at a $2.2 trillion valuation, the largest debut in history. While the company hasn’t yet posted a profit, it seems to have convinced Wall Street that it will get there and grow its valuation on the way.

Of the at least 17 analysts that gave a rating on Tuesday, all but one gave it a “buy” or “outperform” rating. MoffettNathanson was "neutral."

The ratings come as SpaceX joined the Nasdaq 100 index, a benchmark tech-heavy basket of companies that underpins millions of portfolios. The inclusion adds built-in demand for the stock from index funds and ETFs.

Still, SpaceX fell more than 5% on Tuesday amid a broader sell-off, and is currently effectively flat from its opening price of $150 a share.
