Investing.com - Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock gained after Citi reiterated its Buy rating and $190.00 price target on the chipmaker. The stock, currently trading near its 52-week high of $167.89, has demonstrated remarkable strength with an 86% revenue growth in the last twelve months.

Citi’s decision follows Nvidia’s blog announcement that it is filing applications to sell its H20 GPU in China again, with the U.S. government assuring that licenses will be granted.

Nvidia also revealed plans for a new, fully compliant RTX PRO GPU for the Chinese market, potentially addressing sales impacts that Citi estimates have been in the $4-5 billion range.

The analyst noted that China represents a significant $50 billion market opportunity for Nvidia, though recommended investors take a "wait and see approach" before factoring China contribution into their models.
