French auto industry group PFA: June new car registrations in France rose 11.37% YoY to 188,787 units.

NVIDIA shares rose about 1.8% on the quarter’s final trading day after an >11% monthly pullback, driven by an upbeat forecast from independent semiconductor researcher SemiAnalysis. SemiAnalysis expects NVIDIA’s FY2027 H2 data‑center compute revenue to be roughly 20% above Wall Street consensus, citing easing supply bottlenecks and an accelerated Vera Rubin ramp. The report says HBM4 memory supply constraints are largely resolved and front‑end wafer capacity was pre‑allocated, supporting stronger H2 shipments; supply‑chain checks signal the Blackwell→Rubin transition should complete in Q2 2026 and accelerate demand from Q3. Vera Rubin entered volume production in June and is slated for autumn deliveries to cloud customers including AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud and Oracle; higher HBM4 bandwidth should bolster AI compute performance. SemiAnalysis notes Rubin Ultra was scaled back from original specs—reducing expected scale and performance—and says longer‑term revenue impact remains uncertain, while the AI compute cycle continues to be the market focus.
