American Tungsten Corp. (TSXV: TUNG, OTCQB: DEMRF)
Building America’s Defense Critical Metals Supply
As of November 21, 2025, Nvidia (NVDA), the world’s most valuable company, once again delivered an earnings report that astonished the market. Under significant performance pressure, the chip giant not only comprehensively surpassed analyst expectations but also demonstrated its absolute leadership in the artificial intelligence (AI) field with several key metrics.
NVIDIA’s current investment value rests on three solid pillars: first, the growth momentum shows no signs of slowing down. The earnings report indicates that NVIDIA’s data center revenue continues to grow at a remarkable pace, with the Blackwell architecture GPUs becoming the preferred choice for customers. More notably, the company’s networking revenue surged from $3.1 billion in Q3 fiscal 2025 to $8.2 billion in Q3 fiscal 2026, making NVIDIA the world’s largest networking company. This “GPU + Networking” synergy highlights that the AI investment cycle remains in an expansion phase.
Second, high profit margins withstand competitive pressures. Despite fierce competition from rivals like AMD and Broadcom, NVIDIA has maintained impressive profitability. Its operating margin reached 63.2% in the latest quarter, even slightly higher than the 62.3% from the same period last year. This data proves that the vast AI data center market can support multiple solutions thriving together, with NVIDIA occupying the most valuable niche due to its technological advantages.
Third, shareholder returns continue to strengthen. In the first nine months of this fiscal year, NVIDIA spent $36.3 billion on stock buybacks, significantly exceeding the $25.9 billion during the same period last year. This scale fully offsets the dilutive effect of stock-based compensation, accelerates earnings per share growth, and provides solid support for the stock price.
Greatest Opportunity: AI Demand Surge and Potential Policy Easing
The core opportunity for NVIDIA lies in the continued explosion of global AI demand. Management pointed out that hyperscale customer demand still exceeds the company’s supply capacity, indicating that AI spending intensity continues to increase. It is particularly noteworthy that the company achieved astonishing growth even while completely excluding data center revenue from China, which indirectly reflects the strength of global demand.
Furthermore, a geopolitical shift may be underway. Reports indicate that the Trump administration is considering allowing NVIDIA to sell its H200 chips to China. If this policy is implemented, it could open up a market worth tens of billions of dollars for NVIDIA. The H200 chip offers significantly improved performance compared to the previously approved H20 version. If export permits are obtained, it would greatly boost the company’s revenue prospects.
Challenge: Geopolitical Dilemma and Intensifying Technological Competition
However, geopolitical risk remains the most severe challenge facing NVIDIA. The company is currently completely excluded from China, a globally important market, and its previous attempts to maintain market share with downgraded chips were hindered by constraints from both the US and China. Although the Trump administration might allow H200 sales, it has clearly stated it will not approve exports of the more advanced Blackwell chips to China. This policy approach of “limited openness” will long-term constrain NVIDIA’s expansion in the world’s largest semiconductor market.
On the other hand, the technological competitive landscape is evolving. Competitors like Broadcom, through collaborating with hyperscale customers to design custom chips, offer more cost-effective solutions for specific application scenarios. Although NVIDIA’s GPUs are irreplaceable in adapting to complex scenarios, competitive pressure in niche markets is gradually accumulating.
Investment Outlook
In summary, thanks to its technological leadership, profitability, and shareholder return policy, NVIDIA remains the most certain investment target in the AI field. The company’s current valuation remains reasonable relative to its growth potential.
However, investors must clearly recognize that geopolitical risk has become a key variable affecting NVIDIA’s future trajectory. Any minor development in China-US relations could trigger significant stock price volatility. In the tide of the AI revolution, NVIDIA remains the sturdiest vessel, but investors need to fasten their seatbelts and prepare to navigate the impact of geopolitical storms.
