Jensen Huang explains why companies will be much larger in the age of AI
โI was told a long time ago that NVIDIA would never be larger than a billion dollars,โ Jensen begins.
This forecast was obviously wrong. NVIDIAโs market cap today is almost $3 trillion.
Jensen argues that the markets for technology companies are going to be much larger in the future because the market for โintelligent workโ is enormous:
โThis is the extraordinary thing about technology right nowโฆ Weโre in the manufacturing of intelligence. Weโre in the manufacturing of work. And the world of tasks - doing productive, intelligent work - that market is enormous. Measured in trillions.โ
He gives the auto industry as an example. Artificial intelligence expands the market from demand for cars to demand for autonomous chauffeurs:
โThe problem becomes larger. The opportunity becomes largerโฆ Donโt be surprised if technology companies become much larger in the future because what you produce is something very different.โ

***NOW TO VALUATION ๐ง
As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~12% MORE in EPS & ~18% LESS in FCF per share
Using Benjamin Grahamโs 2G rule of thumb, $MSFT has to grow earnings at a 13.65% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation
Today, analysts anticipate 2026 - 2028 EPS growth over the next few years to be more than the (13.65%) required growth rate:
2026E: $16.26 (19% YoY) *FY Jun
2027E: $18.75 (15% YoY)
2028E: $22.31 (19% YoY)
$MSFT has an excellent track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, so letโs assume $MSFT ends 2028 with $22.31 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples
30x P/E: $669๐ต โฆ ~17.9% CAGR
29x P/E: $647๐ต โฆ ~16.3% CAGR
28x P/E: $625๐ต โฆ ~14.7% CAGR
27x P/E: $602๐ต โฆ ~13.0% CAGR
26x P/E: $580๐ต โฆ ~11.3% CAGR
As you can see, weโd have to assume ~28x multiple for $MSFT to have attractive return potential
At 26x - 27x earnings $MSFT has ok CAGR potential
If $MSFT multiple expands slightly, >15% CAGR
$MSFT is one of the highest quality companies in the world & is firing on all cylinders
Today at $454๐ต $MSFT appears to be a strong consideration for investment with a decent margin of safety
$MSFT has large margin of safety at $420๐ต, where I can reasonably expect ~13% CAGR while assuming a more conservative 25x
