Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 50% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published October 13, 2025
NVIDIA should benefit as big tech and cloud providers keep spending heavily to build AI data centers. Oct 13 news about OpenAI planning years of accelerator purchases signals steady demand. In the near term the stock looks beaten down, but interest is improving and lots more people are buying than usual, which can spark a bounce. Over the next 3 months, buying dips aims to ride new products and continued orders.
Primary drivers
- Huge spending to build AI infrastructure boosts demand for NVIDIA chips
- Short-term weakness with signs of renewed buying interest
- Leader in high-performance accelerators with heavy trading interest
- Broad industry demand across the AI ecosystem remains strong
How it played out
NVDA: target missed after a partial rise
Lyra published NVDA at 188.56 on 2025-10-13 with 25% expected growth over the short-term window.

Inside the window, NVDA rose to 212.18 on 2025-10-29, a 12.5% peak gain. That stayed below the 235.69 target, so the target was never reached. By 2026-01-11, the stock ended at 184.86, below the publication price. The thesis partly played out early, then missed by the close.
