“Stock futures are looking up after Monday’s markets blood bath, as investors take stock of what the Chinese start-up DeepSeek really means for the artificial intelligence business.” Many questions remain, but “the emerging consensus is that DeepSeek… has upended the race for A.I. supremacy.

Moreover, Nvidia’s market cap of $3.35 trillion “single-handedly eclipses all of Europe’s stock markets in market capitalization.” According to Deutsche Bank, “the chipmaker’s valuation outstrips that of all listed stocks in Europe’s major business hubs—Germany, France, and the U.K.” Currently the “only markets whose listed shares are collectively larger than Nvidia’s are those of the U.S., India, China, and Japan”
