The Bad Sale - SoftBank on Nvidia
Quote from Ndubuisi Ekekwe on January 9, 2025, 4:47 PM
SoftBank Group CEO Masayoshi Son sold a $4 billion Nvidia stake in 2019 that would have been worth almost $180 billion if he had waited until this week. Run the math, that is 45x multiple lost in 5 years. And that teaches us one thing: even the best are just humans like us except in one key way - they do not stay down long, they always rise up and go out to battle. Mr. Son now wants to invest $200 billion in the broad AI , hoping to recover what he missed in Nvidia!
