Premium contentNVIDIA Corporation has established itself as a dominant player in the semiconductor industry, particularly in the field of graphics processing units (GPUs). Founded in 1993, the company has branched out into multiple high-growth markets including AI, gaming, and data centers. Its well-diversified portfolio and continuous innovation have allowed it to enjoy strong revenue growth and high investor interest. As of the latest data, NVIDIA remains one of the most prominent and innovative companies in technology, contributing significantly to advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning applications. Social media mentions are up 37% in the past 24h.
Considers the US restrictions as short-term obstacles. Stock's starting to rebound quite nicely. The leader today in AI computing, and for the foreseeable future. Strong global thirst and demand for AI infrastructure. Unmatched advantages compared to other names in the space. Data centres are driving growth. Recent earnings beat.
AI adoption is still in very early stages. Still trading at 1x PEG ratio. Earnings growth is not reflected in the valuation. Sees EPS at 33% going forward. Yield is 0.03%.
Premium contentNVDA has had some setbacks with AI competition and trade war uncertainty, but recently reported earnings showed a 69% increase in revenues --including a 73% increase in data center revenues. It trades at 46x earnings and supports a ROE over 100%. We like that cash reserves are growing, while shares are aggressively bought back and debt is retired. We recommend setting a stop-loss at $106, looking to achieve $172 -- upside potential of 18%. Yield 0.03%
(Analysts’ price target is $172.22)Semis are cyclical with their highs and lows, and we are possibly in the early innings of AI--who knows where AI will take us. NVDA is getting cheaper as the stock price rises. As earnings rise, so will the stock. In the past 1.5 years, NVDA shares have not risen as fast as earnings growth.
Used to make 75% gross margins, but those have jumped to 90%. If it goes back to historic gross margins, even if sales continue, you'll see a huge degradation in profit. Sweet spot in terms of demand. Market thinks it can do no wrong. Worries that demand will abate or just normalize. Good news is baked in. Watch your position size.

When DeepSeek came out, he started selling out of this position. People are selling the Mag 7, and there might be some anti-US sentiment globally. Recent charges on China, tariff concerns. At some level it becomes cheap; at 15x 2027 earnings, with 28% growth, it's gotten oversold. Blackwell chips are the catalyst.
Will only work if we're still in a bull market. US administration could tip us into a recession. Risk to this name, especially with no dividend. Start picking away ~$100-104. Be an incremental purchaser of growth names for when we do come out of this darker economic time.
