Reached 50% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published November 25, 2025
Nvidia is the main maker of chips used to run AI and cloud services, and current demand from big cloud customers looks strong. Some competitive news briefly pushed the stock down, but other reports show growing AI spending. The stock is trading below recent trend, so buying a bit in the $160-$175 range could be a tactical way to add exposure while risk is managed.
Primary drivers
- Leader in GPUs for AI data centers, gaming and other workloads.
- Possible competition from Google TPUs raises near-term risk.
- Strong AI-related growth at Alibaba and Zoom supports demand.
- Short-term momentum is weak, creating a tactical buying opportunity.
