Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 68% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published October 16, 2025
NVIDIA is still the go-to builder of the hardware that powers AI. Strong updates from TSMC and continued spending by large cloud companies suggest demand should stay firm. The stock looks beaten down after a pullback, and trading is heavier than usual. If the recent average price and trend start turning up, shares may recover over the next 0-3 months as chip makers take the lead again.
Primary drivers
- TSMC's outlook shows customers still want many AI chips, aiding NVIDIA
- Shares look beaten down while trading is heavier than usual lately
- Leads in chips, software, and networking that power modern AI systems
- If more stocks rise together, NVDA may move back toward its uptrend
