Premium contentThis juggernaut is too big to ignore. At the end of May, it reported yet another top and bottom line beat and issued rosy guidance. Numbers are supported by continued strong demand for its chips, particularly in the age of AI and despite Trump's export restrictions to China. Cloud providers, governments and businesses keep buying their stuff. Nvidia is truly an excellent company.
It rallied 1.7% on a very choppy day, but the reason is unclear. The market is betting that Trump will let NVDA sell $50 billion of chips this year and China will cut a deal with the U.S. with its rare earths, which the U.S. needs. Who knows what will happen? Anything can happen. If the sale is blocked, then wouldn't this encourage to invest more in making its own chips?
Is the leader in the AI race with its chips. He likes this, except the underlying political situation whether NVDA or another chip company will get effected whenever the rules change. Mitigate risk: only placing a stop loss. He targets $175-180, but it won't be a smoothride.
One of the things his team's looking at right now is that it seems some of the regulations surrounding the semiconductor industry will be reduced (specifically China, but other countries as well). That could mean an expanded market for the semi manufacturing equipment companies, such as KLAC. AVGO has also been a strong performer, and he owns some NVDA. Those two names have strong relative price performance, are economically sensitive, cyclical, and have pricing power.
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.
He loves the semis sector and this stock. It was upgraded today with an analyst raising the price target to $250, but he can't see NVDA shares double or triple.
