What happened

At Computex 2026 in Taipei, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang told Marvell Technology CEO Matthew Murphy onstage that Marvell will be "the next trillion-dollar company," sending Marvell shares up 26% in premarket trading. Huang credited Marvell's role in AI data center connectivity: "When you disaggregate a computing problem across the entire data center, what's necessary is connectivity. That's the reason why Marvell is so essential." The comments followed Nvidia's $2 billion investment in Marvell earlier in 2026, enabling integration between Marvell's networking products and Nvidia's AI systems. Marvell had projected its custom chip business would exceed $10 billion in revenue by fiscal 2029, driven by hyperscalers building AI infrastructure. Huang stated that "useful AI has arrived," explaining the surge in demand for Marvell's high-speed networking chips, optical interconnects, and custom ASICs that link GPU clusters. Marvell shares have climbed 145% year-to-date in 2026 and nearly 260% over the prior 12 months.

What to watch

Marvell's fiscal 2029 custom chip revenue target of $10 billion becomes the benchmark for whether Huang's trillion-dollar call materializes. Near-term catalysts include hyperscaler capex guidance and Marvell's quarterly reports on networking chip attach rates in AI data centers.

Also Worth Watching

Arista competes directly with Marvell in AI data center networking switches and Ethernet fabric. Huang's endorsement of connectivity as the next AI infrastructure bottleneck validates Arista's thesis that high-speed networking is the choke point in distributed GPU clusters. If hyperscalers double down on custom interconnects to reduce Nvidia dependency, Arista's merchant silicon platforms benefit from the same shift toward disaggregated architectures.
