Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
As of this morning on August twentieth, twenty twenty five,
Invidia's stock is trading near one hundred seventy five United
States dollars per share, after closing more than three and
a half percent lower yesterday. This movement comes on a
trading volume that soared over thirty two billion United States dollars,
up more than thirty seven percent from the previous day,

(00:21):
making Nvidia the day's most actively traded stock. The elevated
activity reflects not only the recent pullback in high growth
technology names, but also deepening on certainty about Invidia's evolving
strategy in China and fresh announcements on new artificial intelligence
chip models. Recent headlines indicate in Nvidia is working on

(00:42):
a new chip for China, code named B thirty A,
aiming to thread the needle between compliance with United States
regulations and market demand. However, the outlook remains clouded by
ongoing geopolitical and regulatory tension, with investors facing persistent questions
about what weather their updated rules and partial revenue sharing

(01:02):
agreements will meaningfully stabilize in Vidia's China business. Despite such challenges,
in Nvidia stock has managed to remain up by nearly
thirty percent year to date, underscoring the market's faith and
its role as a leader in artificial intelligence technology. Analysts
sentiment remained strongly positive, with nearly ninety percent of Wall

(01:23):
Street ratings calling in Vidia a bye and the consensus
one year price target ranging from roughly one hundred ninety
to two hundred twenty United States dollars. A few bullish
voices suggest the stock could reach as high as two
hundred forty United States dollars in the latest updates. Several
major firms, including TD Callen, have reiterated their by recommendations

(01:44):
and lifted price targets to as much as two hundred
thirty five United States dollars. Options trading has also been robust,
highlighted by exceptionally high activity around the one hundred and
eighty United States dollars strike, where more than ninety two
thousand contracts changed hands in a single session. The balance
of these trades shows large institutions may be locking in

(02:04):
gains or hedging exposure rather than betting on outsized upside
in the very near turn. After a powerful rally earlier
this year, there is now a visible tug of war
between profit takers and those betting on further growth from
artificial intelligence tailwinds. Technical analysts warn that momentum has faded,
and any break below the critical one seventy five United

(02:27):
States dollar level could set the stage for a deeper correction,
possibly toward the one hundred forty three United States dollar area. Still,
the dominant meritive remains that Nvidia is the bell weather
for artificial intelligence hardware, and its coming earnings call will
serve as a key test for both the company and
the broader artificial intelligence investment theme.
