Analyst predicts a 15% downside risk for Nvidia stock as artificial intelligence reaches the ‘trough of disillusionment.’

FUNDAMENTAL OVERVIEW:

Analysts emphasize NVIDIA’s pivotal role in accelerated computing, projecting an impressive 20% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2022 across cycles.

 Despite acknowledging NVDA’s dominance, analysts express doubt regarding the consensus expectations for future years, anticipating a return to the trend line in the next 2-6 quarters.

They cite the vulnerability of NVDA as the hype around artificial intelligence (AI) approaches the “trough of disillusionment.” Initiating new research coverage, analysts rate Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) stock as Neutral with a $410 per share price target, implying a 15% downside risk based on Tuesday’s closing price.

The target is derived from a 35x multiple on the $7.29 of CY24 EPS for the core company and $155 for the sandbox revenue expected in the next 4-6 quarters. Analysts believe the value of this sandbox could decline significantly once NVDA’s growth slows.

Nvidia stock closed 2.7% lower on the first trading day in 2024 and is down an additional 1.1% in pre-market trading on Wednesday.
