The divestment of Nvidia stakes by Thiel Capital and SoftBank Group has intensified fears of an AI bubble burst, causing market jitters and a decline in Nvidia's shares despite strong Q3 earnings. This shift in sentiment among major investors could lead to a broader reassessment of valuations in the AI sector.

Billionaire investor Peter Thiel's hedge fund, Thiel Capital, has sold its entire $100 million stake in Nvidia during the third quarter of 2025, as revealed in a US Securities and Exchange Commission filing. This move, coupled with SoftBank Group's earlier sale of its Nvidia stake for $5.83 billion, has significantly heightened concerns on Wall Street about a potential AI bubble burst. Investors are worried that the rapid increase in technology valuations, particularly in AI-driven equities, may have peaked, putting trillions of dollars invested in AI infrastructure at risk. Despite these divestments, Nvidia reported strong Q3 earnings, exceeding revenue and EPS expectations, with CEO Jensen Huang addressing bubble fears by emphasizing Nvidia's comprehensive role in AI. However, Nvidia's shares remained down in November, reflecting the mixed signals and ongoing market uncertainty.
