NVIDIA - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Why I'm telling friends to avoid gold stocks (Ad)

Back in November, gold made a tiny move of 1.6%. But according to my backtesting by using a special type of gold trade, I would have seen a 141% gain in just a week. It happened again in March. Gold nudged up 1.2%. This time? A 104% overnight gain. And in June? A 1% gold move turned into a 74% gain in two weeks. Granted, there would have been smaller wins and those that did not work out, but you see, there's a reason I'm telling all my friends to hold off from buying gold or regular gold stocks right now. There's a more lucrative way to play the gold market as we enter a new breakout period. It's all about catching what I call "Acceleration Cycles."

And if you’d like to get your hands on this, here you go, the complete breakdown.

  • NVidia reported a strong quarterly earnings per share (EPS) of $0.81, surpassing analysts' expectations of $0.69, indicating robust financial performance and effective management.
  • The company achieved a remarkable revenue of $35.08 billion for the quarter, a 93.6% increase compared to the same quarter last year, showcasing significant growth potential.
  • Nvidia's board has approved a substantial stock buyback plan of $50 billion, which often signals that the company believes its shares are undervalued, potentially leading to an increase in share price.

  • Despite strong earnings, NVidia's stock has shown volatility, with a recent decline of 0.7%, which may indicate market uncertainty.
  • The company's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is 53.97, which is relatively high, suggesting that the stock may be overvalued compared to its earnings, potentially leading to a price correction.
  • Insider selling has been significant, with over 1.5 million shares sold in the last three months, which could raise concerns about the confidence of current management in the company's future prospects.
  • The market capitalization of NVidia is $3.39 trillion, making it one of the largest companies; this size can sometimes lead to slower growth rates compared to smaller, more agile firms.
