Nvidia (NVDA)

Introduction
Nvidia (NVDA) is scheduled to announce its financial results this Wednesday, and attention is focused on the impact this will have on the overall stock market. In particular, the company made a major guidance update in its financial results announcement in May 2023, which caused its stock price to soar, but the situation is different this time.

Main article
Past financial results and changes in growth rate
NVDA had recorded negative growth for four consecutive fiscal years until the April 2023 fiscal year, but its stock price soared because its guidance for the July 2023 fiscal year was very high. Until the April 2024 fiscal year, year-on-year comparisons were easy and the growth rate was very high, but this fiscal year (July 2024) will be difficult to make year-on-year comparisons.

Slowing growth rate
The expected growth rate for this fiscal year is 139% for EPS and 113% for sales, and is expected to slow to 77% and 75%, respectively, in the next fiscal year (October 2024). The impact of AI began to become apparent in the July 2023 financial results, and since exactly one year has passed since this quarter, it will be difficult to compare the results with the same period last year.

Market reaction
NVDA's growth rate is mathematically impossible to continue forever, and a certain degree of slowdown in growth rate is already factored in. However, the question is how much slowdown is acceptable and how much slowdown it will take for shareholders to start selling. In fact, hedge fund investors such as Druckenmiller have already sold off their NVDA shares.

Conclusion
In this earnings announcement, the market's reaction to the earnings is more important than the earnings themselves. If NVDA reports better than expected earnings but the stock price falls, it will mean that NVDA, the pioneer of the AI ​​boom, has failed, and the entire US stock market may fall. If the guidance is $32.5 billion or $33 billion, the stock price is likely to rise, but if it is less than $32 billion, the stock price may fall significantly.

Welcome to the world of Bonsai!

Bonsai is an art form that encapsulates the beauty and harmony of nature within a small pot. It serves as a mirror reflecting the human heart, revealing an infinite world within. Bonsai reflects the emotions, thoughts, and values of its caretaker. It symbolizes the relationship between humans and nature, showing how we coexist with, respect, and celebrate the beauty of nature. Bonsai is also a living art that experiences growth and change over time, serving as a metaphor for life itself. Each Bonsai weaves its own story through its journey of growth. It symbolizes the fragility and persistence of life, change and constancy, and above all, the passage of time. Therefore, Bonsai is more than just a plant; it is a philosophical expression that bridges the inner world of humans and the outer world. It is a mirror showing how we understand ourselves and the world, and how we interact with them. It is a world in itself. Welcome to the world of Bonsai! https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=8

In bonsai terminology, "Ushiroeda" or "back branch"

In bonsai terminology, "Ushiroeda" or "back branch" refers to the branches that extend to the back of the trunk. These branches play a role in expressing the depth of the entire tree. The back branches are usually placed slightly spread out to the side so that the foliage can be seen from the front. The back branches that come out diagonally are finished in such a way that they peek out from between the branches, considering that the branches further away actually look smaller than the branches in front. The back branches play an important role in taking the balance of the entire tree and are arranged back and forth to bring out the three-dimensionality of the tree.
