NVIDIA's current growth and Q2 guidance explicitly exclude revenue from China data-center compute shipments. — This indicates that AI demand is currently decoupled from China risks, meaning any potential reopening of that market would be a pure upside tailwind.
+0.40The continued success of the XLK fund depends heavily on hyperscalers maintaining their massive AI infrastructure capex spending. — Any flattening or reduction in capex from Microsoft, Amazon, Google, or Meta would turn NVIDIA's supply commitments into an inventory risk.
