Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 44% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published December 22, 2025
Nvidia is central to the AI boom, so many investors watch it closely. Trading activity is high and the recent short-term trend shows some strength, but other timing signals are mixed. A new headline about shipping H200 chips to China could reduce uncertainty and lift expectations. Because momentum is unclear and price swings can be large, a cautious, step-by-step buying plan on dips is recommended over the next few months.
Primary drivers
- Nvidia leads AI hardware, attracting capital toward the stock
- Shipping H200 chips to China could improve near-term revenue visibility
- Heavy trading volume points to strong institutional interest
- A scaled buying plan matches mixed timing and volatile price action
How it played out
NVDA: target was not reached
Lyra published NVDA at 183.08 on 2025-12-22 with an expected 18% gain. The thesis pointed to Nvidia's role in artificial intelligence hardware, possible H200 shipments to China, heavy trading volume, and mixed timing signals. It also framed the idea as short-term and cautious because price swings could be large.
Inside the window, NVDA rose to a peak of 197.63 on 2026-02-25, a peak gain of 8%. That stayed below the 216.03 target. It never got there. By 2026-03-22, the stock ended at 172.70. The thesis partially played out on the early rise, but it missed the target.
