Nvidia deliberately kept GPU prices high through circular financing deals

Jensen Huang made mistakes that gave opportunities to his enemies. But the bigger mistake was his incredible greed, he should have been a happy supplier of an extremely valuable product, and accept competition and that his quasi-monopoly was only transient. But he wanted the entire cake for himself.

Greed and hubris. I think the turbulences will be painful to some, especially those who counted on Nvidia stock to finance their retirement.

But, big picture, this is good news.

Looks like this claim was coming from Ed Zitron

Nvidia should be broken up.

I don't have a WSJ subscription, but was there actually anything weird about the deals? I mean it seems pretty normal.

I love to see when capitalism works great and free market is efficient.

The invisible hand of the free market ;)

As if we didn’t suspect this. Same with RAM makers not upping production.

It’s like the oil companies whining and fleecing us too.

What’s the move though?

People are acting like vendors extending financing to their customers is somehow irregular or illegal.

It’s not. It happens ALL THE TIME. This isn’t “circular financing” which is a great meme term but is not factual.
