The thesis — published December 8, 2025
Nvidia is at the center of spending on AI servers and robots. Analysts expect about 48 percent sales growth by fiscal 2027, and the stock trades at roughly 24 times expected profits. News points to rising demand for humanoid robots that use Nvidia GPUs. Strong orders and limited supply support profits, and buying small drops could capture more AI-driven gains.
