Market Chatter: Goldman Sachs Sees Oil Touching $120/Bbl if Middle East Shipping Disruptions Intensify

Goldman Sachs (GS) sees a price upside of up to $120 per barrel for oil if attacks on ships in the Middle East intensify and lead to increased disruption to flows, Bloomberg reported Monday.Events of the past few days indicate that the risk of shipping disruptions becoming more widespread and intensifying is an important one, Daan Struyven, Goldman Sachs' co-head of global commodities research, told Bloomberg TV in an interview.The US-based financial institution, meanwhile, sees prices falling to $80 if regional oil exports return to normal. Brent crude was last trading at $96.36 a barrel.While Goldman Sachs sees significant upside potential for crude oil prices, it recommends investors take long positions in global natural gas and refined oil products, where supply shocks are larger than in the crude market, Struyven said.(Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.

Nvidia Investing $3.5 Billion in MediaTek, Partners on NVLink Fusion Platform

Nvidia (NVDA) expanded its partnership with chip designer MediaTek, including a $3.5 billion investment, to support adoption of the company's proprietary interconnect technology for custom rack-scale artificial intelligence chips.Under the deal, Nvidia bought $3.5 billion convertible bonds issued by MediaTek, and the Taiwan-based fabless chipmaker will adopt the NVLink Fusion platform, which provides chipmakers with prevalidated connectors and specialized memory to integrate custom AI accelerators directly into Nvidia's rack-scale data center systems."MediaTek is one of the world's great semiconductor companies, with exceptional expertise in system-on-chip design, connectivity, leading performance and power efficiency," Nvidia Chief Executive Jensen Huang said. "Together, we're building platforms that bring Nvidia accelerated computing to new markets and give customers the freedom to create differentiated AI systems at enormous scale.""Nvidia's investment strengthens a collaboration that spans cloud AI infrastructure, local AI computing and automotive in the era of physical AI," MediaTek CEO Rick Tsai said.Last week, Nvidia reported fiscal second-quarter results that more than doubled from a year ago and topped Wall Street expectations, driven by record data center sales. Morgan Stanley said the chipmaking giant offered a surprisingly strong fiscal 2028 revenue outlook, while its gross margin guidance provided clarity amid rising memory costs.Separately, Nvidia announced an expanded partnership with Amazon.com's (AMZN) Amazon Web Services to supply 2 million additional GPUs across AWS infrastructure in 2027 and 2028, and build dedicated 100,000-GPU AI factories for federal security workloads.Earlier in August, Nvidia said it was collaborating with six major financial institutions to launch compute financing platforms aimed at raising over $500 billion in third-party capital to support its AI infrastructure. Apollo (APO), BlackRock (BLK), Blackstone (BX), Brookfield (BAM), Goldman Sachs (GS) and KKR (KKR) were part of the partnership.Previously, Nvidia agreed to expand its partnership with South Korean conglomerate SK Group with a more than $500 billion AI infrastructure initiative.Nvidia's shares were up 1.1% Monday and have gained 18% this year.Chip designer Marvell Technology (MRVL) reported late last week second-quarter results above Wall Street's estimates amid a surge in data center revenue. B. Riley Securities said the company's fiscal third-quarter gross margin outlook came in a bit soft amid a higher custom product mix.Semiconductor manufacturer Broadcom (AVGO) is scheduled to report its fiscal third-quarter results Wednesday.Price: $220.40, Change: $+2.85, Percent Change: +1.31%

Nvidia's Second-Quarter Results More Than Double Amid Record Data Center Sales

Nvidia's (NVDA) fiscal second-quarter results more than doubled from a year ago and topped Wall Street expectations amid record data center sales.The technology bellwether's revenue climbed 106% annually to $96.22 billion, exceeding the consensus on FactSet indicating $92.27 billion. Adjusted per-share earnings increased to $2.22 in the three months ended July 26 from $1.01 a year earlier. Analysts expected $2.11.Data center revenue jumped 117% to a record $89.02 billion, driven by its Blackwell Ultra graphics processing unit infrastructure, Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress said. Consensus pointed to $86.30 billion in data center sales."AI has reached its inflection point. It's doing useful work. Its tokens are productive and profitable. Now, compute is revenue," Chief Executive Jensen Huang said in a statement. "The AI infrastructure buildout is at full steam. Vera Rubin, now in full production, was built to power exactly this moment."Vera Rubin is Nvidia's next-generation AI supercomputing platform.Hyperscale revenue rallied 102% from the prior-year quarter, while the AI cloud, industrial and enterprise segment surged 138%."Nvidia has become both the largest direct beneficiary and one of the best real-time indicators of AI infrastructure investment," Ivan Feinseth, chief market strategist at Tigress Financial Intelligence, said in a note to clients this week.For the fiscal third quarter, the company expects consolidated revenue of $108 billion, plus or minus 2%. Wall Street expects $104.86 billion.Wedbush Analyst Matt Bryson expected Nvidia's third-quarter revenue guidance to top expectations, according to a note sent to clients ahead of Wednesday's release. Bryson reiterated his outperform rating and a $330 price target on the company."We again expect (Nvidia) to exceed its guidance and to guide October above Street, given a strong hyperscale spending backdrop that firmed further through (second-quarter) earnings, and a supply position we continue to view as the best in the industry at a point where component and material access, not end demand, is defining shipments," the analyst said.The chipmaker's stock slipped 0.3% in after-hours trading, and had gained about 12% this year through Wednesday close.Earlier in August, Nvidia said it partnered with six major financial institutions to launch compute financing platforms aimed at raising over $500 billion in third-party capital to support its AI infrastructure. Those six firms are Apollo (APO), BlackRock (BLK), Blackstone (BX), Brookfield (BAM), Goldman Sachs (GS) and KKR (KKR).Previously, Nvidia agreed to expand its partnership with South Korean conglomerate SK Group with a more than $500 billion AI infrastructure initiative.In August, chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) posted fiscal second-quarter results that beat estimates and issued third-quarter revenue guidance above Wall Street's views.Intel's (INTC) second-quarter results topped analysts' consensus in July. Semiconductor manufacturer Broadcom (AVGO) is scheduled to report fiscal third-quarter results Sept. 2.
