Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 57% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published October 21, 2025
NVIDIA's stock has dropped sharply even though it remains a top name in AI chips. Independent forecasts say AI server spending could rise from $126B in 2024 to $1.84T by 2033, and car makers are adding more AI, pointing to wide demand. With sentiment improving and business results still solid, a 0-3 month rebound looks reasonable as buying steadies and the AI sector remains supportive of leaders like NVIDIA.
Primary drivers
- AI server spending could surge to $1.84T, lifting demand for NVIDIA
- Shares look washed out after a pullback, setting up a near-term rebound
- NVIDIA leads in top-tier AI chips, a strong edge as AI adoption grows
- AI features in cars add another route for steady, long-term growth
How it played out
NVDA: rebound rose, but target was not reached
Lyra published NVDA at $181.27 on 2025-10-21, looking for 30% growth to $235.64 over a short-term window. The thesis pointed to artificial intelligence server spending, a washed-out share price after a pullback, NVIDIA's lead in top-tier chips for artificial intelligence work, and more artificial intelligence features in cars.
The stock rose to $212.18 on 2025-10-29, a 17.1% peak gain, but it stayed below $235.64. It never got there. By 2026-01-19, NVDA ended at $186.23. The thesis partly played out because the rebound happened, but the published target was missed.
What happened during the window
