# SoftBank's holdings in NVIDIA and Taiwan Semiconductor reflect Masayoshi Son's emphasis on AI

> At the end of the first quarter, Japan's SoftBank Group held approximately $3 billion in NVIDIA, while also purchasing shares of Taiwan Semiconductor and Oracle, amounting to $330 million and $170 million, respectively. This indicates founder Masayoshi Son's emphasis on supporting tools and hardware for artificial intelligence (AI) and his desire to play a larger role in the AI field through collaborations with entities like OpenAI

Available Bloomberg data shows that SoftBank Group of Japan had a position in NVIDIA worth approximately $3 billion at the end of the first quarter (down to $1 billion by the end of 2024), while simultaneously purchasing about $330 million in Taiwan Semiconductor stock and $170 million in Oracle stock. This trend indicates that SoftBank founder and CEO Masayoshi Son is focusing on tools and hardware that support artificial intelligence (AI). By collaborating with OpenAI, Oracle, and the Abu Dhabi Investment Fund MGX, Masayoshi Son aims to play a more significant role in the AI boom
