Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 64% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published October 8, 2025
Interest in the stock is picking up as more buyers step in than sellers, and the company's numbers and investor mood look steady. News that Nvidia may invest up to $2B in xAI highlights how central its chips are to AI and its likely long-term lead. Demand for its high-speed computing gear is still stronger than supply. Buying in small steps near today's price aims to catch a move higher as this quiet period ends.
Primary drivers
- Many more buyers than usual are stepping in, a sign momentum is improving
- Possible multibillion xAI deal highlights Nvidia's key role at the center of AI
- Demand for Nvidia's AI chips is stronger than supply for now, supporting growth
- Price action and business results both look steady, giving a balanced setup
