Nvidia just lined up $500 BILLION to keep the AI buildout going. Not from Nvidia's balance sheet. From Wall Street: Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs, KKR. The play: turn Nvidia chips into an "investable asset class," like real estate or toll roads, so pension funds and insurers bankroll the data centers instead of Nvidia carrying the risk alone. Nvidia may provide residual-value support for up to 25% of opportunities (case-by-case) if needed. Still just MOUs, no signed checks yet, but it shows big capital now sees AI compute as something solid enough to lend against.(Lark Davis)
