Billionaire technology entrepreneur Leo KoGuan says he has acquired a significant position in the chip company NVIDIA. This is how he justifies the purchase.
• Leo KoGuan sees no risk of bubbles with AI
• Major Tesla shareholder attracts attention with considerable investment in NVIDIA
• Buying NVIDIA shares took place in two steps
Leo KoGuan, who gained fame through his successful speculation on Tesla, has acquired a total of two million NVIDIA shares after the shares have barely moved in the past few months. The investment was made in two tranches of one million shares each.

As KoGuan announced on the X platform, he purchased the first block of shares on March 3rd. Based on the then closing price of $180.05 per share on the New York Stock Exchange, this would correspond to a transaction volume of approximately $180 million. KoGuan justified the investment in
And in fact, just a few days later, he announced that he had doubled his investment. “Hopefully I can do a little to calm the nervous market,” the 71-year-old Singaporean billionaire commented on this step on X.
As promised, I bought additional 1 million shares of NVDA today. Hence, my total position of NVDA is 2 million shares. Hopefully, I can contribute a little to calm the nervous market. Good luck everyone. https://t.co/nYYhYPQ6uq

The AI sector has recently been under increased scrutiny from investors after the strong price momentum of recent years has waned somewhat. After the initial hype, investors are now increasingly concerned about the immense amounts of capital that have to be spent on building the required infrastructure. This is fueling fears about the profitability of hyperscalers. However, KoGuan continues to see the development positively in the long term and sees NVIDIA as a central infrastructure for artificial intelligence, as can be seen from his public statements.
NVIDIA as a key technology for AI
By joining NVIDIA, KoGuan is positioning itself more strongly in the AI ecosystem. The chip designer plays a key role in the global AI ecosystem because its graphics processing units (GPUs) are considered standard hardware for training and running large AI models. The US company’s high-performance chips are used in data centers worldwide and form the technical basis for applications such as generative AI, cloud services and autonomous systems. NVIDIA’s lead is not only based on pure hardware performance, but also through a widespread software ecosystem (CUDA) that interlinks hardware and software so closely that this ecosystem for developers has become the global industry standard.
The move by the prominent Tesla investor underlines the continued attention of major asset holders to companies that are considered the technological basis of AI development – even in a phase in which market participants are increasingly examining the sector’s valuation critically.
