Stockchase Opinions

Tony Ciero, CFA and CFP NVIDIA Corporation NVDA-Q BUY ON WEAKNESS Aug 01, 2025

NVDA vs. AVGO

Clear winner, because its chips make AI possible. There is some competition out there, but AVGO isn't one of them. Look for a good buying opportunity. 

He sees a parallel with INTC, which was a darling for many years. Not now. NVDA still has the market share; there are companies trying to catch up, but NVDA is still further ahead.

HOLD

Probably a good place to write some calls against it, especially as average analyst price target is ~$175. Over next few days, analysts will probably up price targets due to H20 chips being allowed to China. It'll be king of the hill for at least 18 more months. Should definitely be in your top 5.

(Analysts’ price target is $175.00)
TRADE

He sold the Aug.15 180 strike for $3.50 (20% annualized). Sold 25% of his position to rebalance to slightly overweight.

Likes technical superiority on AI chips.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 17/25, Up 25%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Our PAST TOP PICK with NVDA is progressing well.  To remain disciplined, we recommend trailing up the stop (from $140) to $156 at this time.

BUY

They have a moat in terms of chips that run AI software, which keeps the #2 far behind.

BUY

It's good that they can now sell those chips to China (though pay a tariff and will result in an earnings hit). NVDA has had a lot of momentum.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

They report Aug. 27. AI will remain a tailwind for productivity and economic growth. However, he liked NVDA when it was below $90 last April, but not at twice the price. It costs too much now, though he likes the company. Technically, it needs to fall to at least $150, in the range of $125-150.

TOP PICK

NVIDIA Corporation is a leader in the semiconductor industry, renowned for its advances in graphics processing units (GPUs) and artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure. Founded in 1993 and headquartered in Santa Clara, California, the company has consistently pushed the boundaries of technology, particularly in gaming graphics, AI, and data center markets. NVIDIA's technology is broadly adopted across multiple industries, including automotive, healthcare, and financial services, making it a key player in the technology sector. Social media mentions are up 11.1% in the past 24h.

TOP PICK

Marries hardware and software and applying massive improvements to push product cycle forward. AI wouldn't exist if not for NVDA. Capex cycles do end, so it won't be the honeymoon period forever. But we're only in 4th-5th inning, much more growth to go on the capex front. Still underbuilt, undersupplied, AI still taking off. 

Earnings are coming up, and he thinks they'll beat and raise again. Yield is 0.02%.

(Analysts’ price target is $193.89)
