Nvidia stock down on concerns of Blackwell delays
Nvidia shares are in the red this morning following a report that its latest AI chip tends to overheat in servers.Still, Vivek Arya – a Bank of America analyst remains super bullish on NVDA as Blackwell issues will likely prove to be temporary only. He’s convinced the demand for Nvidia solutions will remain strong in 2025.He even dubbed Nvidia stock “undervalued” on a price-to-cash-flow basis at close to $140 in a recent interview.“They’re a system integrator at this point. They’re selling complete racks with all the computing, networking, optical resources, memory, everything thrown in,” he added at the time.The multinational based out of Santa Clara, California is broadly expected to improve its gross margin to 75% in Q3.Nvidia shares now pay a dividend as well which adds up to the list of reasons to have them in your portfolio.
NVDA could sink following the release of Q3 earnings
Vivek Arya finds it premature to worry about a potential slowdown in AI scaling – a sentiment that Kevin Mahn of Hennion & Walsh echoed on CNBC’s “” on Monday.
