Nvidia has broken to an all-time high of $237.87, fueled by aggressive buybacks and sustained AI demand, signaling strong institutional conviction in the semiconductor cycle. Conversely, Micron is reporting record earnings but faces looming strikes in Taiwan, introducing a tangible supply chain risk that could disrupt memory chip production. This divergence highlights the dual nature of the tech sector: robust demand is pushing valuations higher, but geopolitical and labor risks in key manufacturing hubs remain a persistent overhang.
