Goldman Sachs told Nvidia that this may be the best TMT (technology, media and telecommunications) earnings report we have seen since Zoom (ZM) in June 2020. JPMorgan doubled its price target on Nvidia's stock to $500 from $250, citing "tremendous demand growth."

Nvidia founder CEO Huang Renxun said the sales growth was mainly due to the "surge in demand" for data center products. This is driven by the recent AI boom. Companies compete to use NVIDIA chips to train and deploy generative AI applications like ChatGPT.

Huang said Nvidia has turned to companies that sell entire AI supercomputing systems, not just a chip company, to large companies that are willing to pay higher prices for Nvidia products in order to gain AI capabilities comparable to Silicon Valley technology companies.
