As of February 2026, the global computing landscape has been fundamentally reshaped by a single piece of silicon: NVIDIA’s (NASDAQ: NVDA) Blackwell architecture. What began as a bold announcement in 2024 has matured into the backbone of the "AI Factory" era, providing the raw horsepower necessary to transition from simple generative chatbots to sophisticated, reasoning-capable [...]

Intel stock jumped after CEO Lip-Bu Tan confirmed a renewed push into GPUs, but execution and valuation still matter more than ambition.

Super Micro Computer posted its Q2 Results earlier this week. Here is why analysts believe the stock can turn things around from here.

The high-octane momentum of the artificial intelligence sector hit a significant wall on February 4, 2026, as Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) saw its stock price plummet by 17.3%. The sell-off, which erased more than $560 billion in market capitalization in a single trading session, came despite the company

In the rapidly evolving landscape of 2026, where artificial intelligence has moved from a cloud-based novelty to a ubiquitous edge-device reality, few companies hold as much structural power as Arm Holdings plc (Nasdaq: ARM). Often described as the "invisible architect of the silicon world," Arm does not manufacture chips itself. Instead, it designs the foundational [...]
