U.S.-listed shares of tech giants are gaining some lost ground this morning after a China-based startup shocked the AI world with a powerful LLM. Yesterday, shockwaves rippled across the American tech industry after news spread over the weekend about a powerful new large language model (LLM) from China called DeepSeek.

A slew of stocks, including chip maker Nvidia, fell Monday after Chinese startup DeepSeek released an AI model that runs on less-advanced chips and at a lower cost than U.S. rivals.

In today's video, I discuss the recent updates impacting Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) and other AI stocks after the volatility created by DeepSeek AI. To learn more, check out the short video, consider subscribing, and click the special offer link below.

The Nasdaq is currently experiencing a significant pullback. It is currently down 3.5% and has gone below the 20,000 level to the 19,250 range. Many are calling this downturn a “black swan event” for tech stocks.

Nvidia is the gold standard and leading provider of the graphics processing units (GPUs) used to train and run AI systems. The company is believed to control as much as 98% of the data center GPU market, according to semiconductor analyst firm TechInsights. If AI models can be trained on lower-cost, inferior chips, Nvidia has a lot to lose.

the chip maker saw its market value drop by $593 billion, the biggest one-day drop for any listed company on record.

Nvidia spoke positively about DeepSeek’s latest AI model, R1, saying it represented “excellent AI advancement.”
