MarketWatch·
- Nvidia expanded its stock-repurchase authorization by $150 billion, bringing its total buyback program to $235 billion through January 2028.
- The historic buyback underscores a sharp divide in Big Tech, as Nvidia generates massive cash from the AI boom while companies like Alphabet and Meta halt repurchases to fund heavy AI infrastructure investments.
- Analysts note that while Nvidia signals confidence through excess cash returns, other tech giants are heavily prioritizing uncertain AI infrastructure spending to avoid technological obsolescence.
