Nvidia is out. OpenAI is in. Does that make sense?
SoftBank has been making waves in the investment world and has become one of the most significant financial beneficiaries of the current AI boom. Its Vision Fund reported a gain of ¥3.5 trillion in investments, much of which resulted from its OpenAI holdings, and is now estimated to total ¥2.16 trillion for the quarter.
The unequivocal high for SoftBank was its $20 million Alibaba investment, made in 2000. It paid off huge, blossoming into a $60 billion stake by 2014, a roughly 3,000-times return. The Cowboys also reached the peak of the pro football mountain in the 90s, winning the Super Bowl three times between 1992 and 1995.
