Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 47 days.
The thesis — published March 8, 2026
NVIDIA is still a top company for AI chips and likely to do well long term. Right now, short-term risk is higher because shipments to China were paused, which created a sharp price drop. The company is moving that capacity to newer products, so demand remains strong. This makes buying on dips reasonable, but avoid buying aggressively until the stock steadies.
Primary drivers
- NVIDIA leads the market for AI chips, keeping sales strong
- Shifting factory work to new products supports future growth
- Large company size means it can handle price swings better
- Recent pullback gives a clearer, selective place to buy
