U.S. stocks lower as investors rotate out of tech ahead of Jackson Hole
Investing.com - TD Cowen raised its price target on NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) to $235.00 from $175.00 on Tuesday, maintaining a Buy rating on the chipmaker’s stock. According to InvestingPro data, NVIDIA is currently trading near its 52-week high of $184.48, with an impressive revenue growth of 86.17% over the last twelve months.
The firm cited NVIDIA’s strong fundamentals and "clean narrative" despite concerns surrounding the company’s H20 chip and China business. TD Cowen believes the transition between NVIDIA’s Blackwell and Blackwell Ultra products is progressing "rapidly and smoothly." This assessment aligns with NVIDIA’s excellent financial health score on InvestingPro, supported by a robust gross profit margin of 70.11% and strong cash flows.
The analyst noted that NVIDIA is trading at a discount to Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO) despite what TD Cowen sees as a "cleaner set-up," and maintained that NVIDIA "remains the best and cleanest way to play AI."
TD Cowen’s October quarter estimate of $55 billion remains unchanged and does not include H20 revenue due to "timing/magnitude uncertainty." This estimate stands above the current Wall Street consensus.
The firm also expressed confidence in its above-consensus 2026 estimates, suggesting potential upside beyond adding back datacenter sales to China, and expects NVIDIA to "build visibility" to approximately $7 in calendar 2026 earnings over the next 2-3 quarters.
