NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) just partnered with six major financial institutions on a $500 billion financing push for artificial intelligence infrastructure. The chipmaker said on Monday that it has signed memorandums of understanding with Apollo Global Management, Blackstone, BlackRock, Brookfield Asset Management, Goldman Sachs, and KKR to establish independent computing financing platforms for Nvidia’s customers.
Marking a major milestone for Nvidia and the AI industry, Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang noted how the move will help bring the “world’s leading long-term capital providers together to independently underwrite AI infrastructure.” Major technology companies continue to ramp up AI investment, with total spending expected to surpass $730 billion this year.
Following the news, Wells Fargo analyst Aaron Rakers reiterated an Overweight rating on the stock with a $315.00 price target. The Wall Street firm sees the financial partnership as proof that Nvidia is playing a bigger role in AI infrastructure build outs. However, the bigger story may extend well beyond another bullish analyst call.
The Partnership Could Tackle the Financial Aspect
Big tech has been spending hundreds of billions to fund the AI boom, while growing financial needs has turned Wall Street skeptical regarding the returns these investments will ultimately generate.
