Nvidia (NVDA) Could Hit $5 Trillion as Analysts Lift Price Targets
Nvidia (NVDA, Financials) is drawing fresh bullish forecasts after a rapid five-year rally, with analysts now predicting the chipmaker could grow into a $5 trillion company. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 4 Warning Signs with NVDA. Shares have climbed more than 3,000% over the past five years, and are currently trading near all-time highs. Rosenblatt Securities analyst Hans Mosesmann maintained a $200 price target this week, while UBS and Goldman Sachs pointed to Nvidia's dominant position in AI hardware as reason for long-term upside. Nvidia controls more than 80% of the AI accelerator market and reported a 427% year-over-year jump in data center revenue in its latest quarter. That segment is critical to generative AI and cloud infrastructure buildouts, bolstering Nvidia's top line and free cash flow which now exceeds Amazon's. The company's proprietary CUDA software, tight integration with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., and leading-edge GPUs like the H100 and upcoming Blackwell series reinforce its pricing power and market moat. Nvidia also reported more than $14 billion in quarterly profits, helping justify its $2.9 trillion market cap as of June 18. A doubling in valuation would place it in direct competition with Apple (AAPL, Financials) and Microsoft (MSFT, Financials) as the world's most valuable public firm. Nvidia trades at over 40x forward earnings, raising valuation concerns. Analysts are also monitoring geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and China, which could impact Nvidia's chip exports and manufacturing pipeline. Advanced Micro Devices (AMD, Financials) and Intel (INTC, Financials) continue to invest in AI chips, although they currently trail Nvidia on execution. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.
