Nvidia’s $2bn Marvell investment is not a simple endorsement $MRVL is one of the few real DSP alternatives to Broadcom. Nvidia lacked that lever — now it has influence. Marvell has also struggled in custom AI silicon and networking (Trainium 3 was a clear disappointment). The path of least resistance becomes designing compute that attaches to NVLink rather than building independent high-speed I/O. On scale-up, the field is largely NVLink vs Broadcom’s Ethernet camp. UALink was the alternative; Marvell was the key switch name. Once Marvell is aligned with Nvidia, UALink’s prospects as a true independent standard weaken. Three effects at once: 1) DSP influence, 2) custom ASICs pulled toward NVLink, and 3) a potential NVLink competitor blunted. We stayed on the sidelines. Not every Nvidia partnership is automatically bullish.

If you're wondering just how unusual this year has been, here's yet another way to look at it. TWENTY THREE S&P 500 stocks have increased 100%+ this year. That's by far the highest number for at least the past FORTY years (maybe all-time). The stocks that have doubled have contributed roughly 5-6% of the overall 8% gain YTD for the S&P 500. It is highly unusual for an S&P 500 stock to double. In most years, there are at most a few stocks that double. Of course the last time we saw a surge in the number of S&P 500 stocks that doubled was in 1999..... History suggests this type of unrelenting bid will not be sustained. As you look at the list below, you'll notice the only non-AI/semis/data center stock in the S&P 500 that has doubled is $MRNA, which was down (-90%+) from its COVID19 highs. If you're looking for doubles or 10-baggers going forward, perhaps it's time to look outside of the data center trade... $SNDK $WDC $STX $MU $INTC $DELL $MRVL $FLEX $AMD $AMAT $LITE $GLW $LRCX $TER $ON $COHR $MRNA $FIX $HPE $GNRC $KLAC $Q

What's going on with Marvell?

Marvell's Structera CXL cards make surplus DDR4 usable in memory pools, with dense SRAM IP helping mask latency amid DRAM shortages.
