Nvidia invests $3 billion in Meta stock offering

Nvidia will invest $3 billion in Meta's stock offering as part of an expanded partnership to train and run Meta's Muse models on Nvidia infrastructure. Nvidia said Muse already runs on its infrastructure.

Meta announced its stock sale on Monday, 26 October, as an offering of about $95 billion to fund AI investments, according to Axios.

Nvidia's announcement does not state a purchase price, share count or ownership percentage for the $3 billion stake. The two firms plan to make training and inference faster and cheaper.

Meta will expand its Nvidia deployment to include Vera Rubin and Vera CPUs, Spectrum-X networking and BlueField-4. Quantities were not disclosed.

The sale came in the same week as an AI-stock selloff, in which Meta fell 7% and Nvidia fell 4.4%.

Both companies are considering work on Nvidia's OpenShell architecture for deploying agents safely, and on the Sentry monitoring tool.
