The moat for NVDA is actually much better than AAPL if you really understand the business and the ecosystem.
I’m gonna predict NVDA will be 150+, likely 200+ by the year end.


*Heartily disagree*, but NVDA is still a good bet right now. They are both solid investments options.

You can do this with Nvidia, but please understand it's a much shorter-term bet, OP, because Nvidia has much less of a moat. It's customers are companies that are themselves trying to build chips for AI, so they're also Nvidia competitors, and one day, they will catch up to it.

PP is wrong, obviously. AI is here to stay and high-tech stocks are not influenced by "media running with stories on AI hiccups". That's... stupid.

No, there are fundamental industrial reasons why NVDIA has to be watched like milk on the boil.

But in the short-term, I see no problem with investors who want to get rich quick with buying then selling NVDA.

Just be really, really careful. Read all the relevant news. Know the industry. Where the chips are made. Geopolitical tensions on the chip market. Who the competitors are and who they're schmoozing. And be ready to sell.


You are wrong. When Palo Alto CEO Nikesh Arora made a stupid statement publicly, stock dropped 30% in a day. still hasn't totally recovered and that was months ago.


No. He's announcing short-term pain for potential long-term gains. This is sometimes what an industry leader needs to do. They take risks, and only time will tell whether they pay off. The stock market short-term response is absolutely meaningless.

You don't seem like you know what you're talking about, unless you have very short-term sort of investor psychology. Which is not what's going to enrich you.

And somewhere in the middle is what I do... usually successful, and beating the market. But not by 100s of millions.

Because we were poor to start with and are only at 17M right now. Our work and kids are here in the DC area. Also, and this is key... I don't want a private island.

If I may suggest, do a basket of AI/Semis: SMCI, NVDA, AVGO, LRCX, and ARM. You can even weight towards NVDA. This is still risky but it will provide better return as nvda probably done for the moment.

I don't recommend this but if you must.

Also get some January options so you can maximize return.


I was this poster. Be very careful. I am down 52k today on my portfolio. I have been trading since I was 17. Market reversing back and forth today because of quad witching today (options expiration). I should have known better to trade today. I am also up 100 percent until today since November bull market.

The anti-index fund brigade are hilarious. Someone said index investors will “lose it all” soon and stock pickers will survive? How’s that? The American economy will completely fail but your single company will survive? Makes sense…

An S&P index fund from Vanguard, VOO, has 7% in Microsoft, 6% in Apple, 6% in nvidia, 4% in google, 3.5% in Amazon, 1.7% in Berkshire…

Maybe you anti-index fund people don’t realize how it works? Index investing is just jargon for diversification, which is a concept that has been a core principle of good investing for ages.

Why would you put your entire investible net worth into a single stock? Index investing still gives you exposure to that stock and others that are high growth.

I don’t know what to tell you as NVDA stock gains is anyone’s guess , I bought NVDA back in October at $400 ($40 after the 10/1 stock split), I put in 500k which is 1/10th of my NW so it was still risky. The reason I bought it is that I understand tech industry as I work in tech but at this moment it feels like the price is being driven by FOMO. Nobody knows how much more it can gain but a lot of people are in it for the long run , I myself need to decide the selling point.

If 300k is all your savings then don’t put it in one stock, how about Fidelity Blue Chip Growth which is heavily invested in NVDA and is up 32% for the year.

What does "NVDL (2x NVDA) mean?

70 billion is invested in AI recently, but with only 3 billion in profit. I imagine that AI and the broader tech market will start to recede in 6-18 months once quarterly reports show lackluster results and companies slow investing and purchase of nvidia hardware. AI has not yet been the game changer some expected in improving the efficiency of employees or replacing them entirely.

Nvidia will be going sideways for awhile or even come down a little.
There are much faster horses.


Such as?


Exactly. What is this stock? If you're already in then it only helps you if more people want to buy it now.
