Market Whales and Their Recent Bets on SNOW Options

JPMorgan analysts Claudia Hueston and Pedro Martins just dropped a major AI ripple effect report, and the verdict is clear: DeepSeek's latest LLM is shaking up <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence">the tech hierarchy</a>.
With the promise of slashing training and inference costs, some companies stand to gain big, while others might be in for a rough ride.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Winners: The AI Powerhouses</h2>
The bullish camp — tagged under JPMorgan's DeepSeek Positive Impact — is a who's who of AI titans and cloud leaders. Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>), Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) top the list, unsurprisingly, given their AI ambitions.
But the wave also lifts Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>), Marvell Technology Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>) and Micron Technology Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MU#NASDAQ">MU</a>) — all crucial to AI infrastructure. Even software players like Snowflake Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNOW#NYSE">SNOW</a>), Databricks rival Confluent Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CFLT#NASDAQ">CFLT</a>) and GitLab Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GTLB#NASDAQ">GTLB</a>) look poised to benefit from AI-powered cost efficiencies.
The key theme? AI is moving from experimental to execution mode, and companies that enable inferencing and data management stand to gain.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Losers: The Hardware Setback</h2>
On the flip side, JPMorgan's DeepSeek Negative Impact list puts companies like Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) and Oracle Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) in the danger zone. With cheaper and more efficient AI models, legacy hardware players could see slower demand for expensive, high-power training chips. 
Even industrial giants like Caterpillar Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAT#NYSE">CAT</a>) and Cummins Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMI#NYSE">CMI</a>) might take a hit if AI-driven automation undercuts traditional heavy machinery investments.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Takeaway: AI's Next Economic Shift</h2>
While hyperscalers are still throwing money at AI hardware, DeepSeek's disruption could eventually tilt the value proposition toward application-layer innovation. 
Companies that enable seamless AI adoption—think Salesforce Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>), Shopify Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHOP#NYSE">SHOP</a>) and CrowdStrike Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>)—could see an acceleration in demand, while those overly reliant on expensive, legacy infrastructure may need a strategy refresh.
