Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 71% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published February 9, 2026
Nvidia is the leading company for AI chips. Recent announcements - a big AI spending commitment and financing to help customers buy Nvidia chips - make it likely demand stays strong. The price has pulled back a bit and could be volatile short-term; a strategy of buying small drops may work over the next 0-3 months.
Primary drivers
- Big AI spending plans should keep demand steady for several quarters
- New financing helps customers buy and deploy Nvidia chips faster
- Being the market leader can draw investors back when markets recover
- Buying small drops helps limit risk while market stays uneven
