Earlier this week, Morgan Stanley resumed coverage of NVIDIA’s stock ahead of its Q1 earnings report later this month. Investors might have thought that the equal weight rating and street-low $217 price target were bearish, but the firm reiterated that NVIDIA is a core holding and one of the best growth stocks on the market. The tentative short-term outlook stems from an overvalued multiple and potential headwinds for the remainder of the year. Still, the sentiment from Morgan Stanley is bullish on NVIDIA for the long-term.
NVDA stock forecast
It was another stellar earnings call from AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) who reported a 71% increase in sales for the quarter. Two of the sectors where AMD outperformed were in data centers and gaming chips, which have traditionally been areas dominated by NVIDIA. Much of NVIDIA’s upcoming earnings will likely be compared to AMD’s stellar numbers, particularly in those two sectors. So far this quarter, chip companies have surprised with better than expected earnings from the likes of AMD, ON Semiconductor (NASDAQ: ON), and Qualcomm (NASDAQ: QCOM).
