Analyst: NVIDIA has become the world's "most important stock," but its price may become increasingly volatile
NVIDIA is set to report quarterly earnings on Wednesday, and its stock price volatility is a major concern for Wall Street. EMJ Capital analyst Eric Jackson stated, "This is currently the most important stock in the world. If they fail, it will cause significant issues for the entire market. I think their stock price will see unexpected surges." Another major issue facing NVIDIA is the timeline for its next-generation AI chip, Blackwell. The Information reported earlier this month that the company is facing production issues, which may delay mass shipments to the first quarter of 2025. However, Morgan Stanley analysts wrote in a report this week, "The timing shift does not matter as supply and customer demand have rapidly shifted to H200." HSBC analyst Frank Lee wrote in an August report, "We expect NVIDIA to reduce the allocation of Blackwell B100/B200 GPUs in the second half of the year, turning to ramp up the investment in Hopper H200." He rates the stock as a buy.
