Despite trade-tariff uncertainties, SMCI finds support in its link to NVIDIA (NVDA, Financial) and the rising demand for Blackwell chips. As NVDA's new AI solutions gain traction, data centers require advanced servers and cooling, areas where SMCI specializes.

SMCI recently shook off past accounting concerns by installing a new auditing team, helping to restore investor confidence. That groundwork set the stage for a major win: the Saudi government tapped SMCI to build AI-focused data centers, signaling faith in its Foundry servers.

NVDA's strong quarterly results have left a gap in data-center maintenance, precisely the niche SMCI can fill. With NVDA's Blackwell chips fueling orders, SMCI may see further upside as AI infrastructure spending climbs.

For bulls, SMCI's role in supporting NVDA's Blackwell ecosystem offers a clear catalyst, even as tariffs and macro headwinds persist.
