Biggest lesson i learnt in 2022 in the NVIDIA’s market is that nobody knows what is going to happen next, so practice some humility and follow a strategy with a long term edge.
Uncertainty... it took me 5 years to stop trying to predict what bout to happen in market based on charts studying, cause you never know. not having a mentor cost me 5 years of pain I learn to go we’re the market is wanting to go and keep it simple with discipline.
@@TomD226 I'm intrigued by your experience. Could you possibly recommend a trustworthy advisor you've consulted with?
Laurel Dell Sroufe is my adviser and she is highly qualified and experienced in the financial market. She has extensive knowledge of portfolio diversity and is considered an expert in the field. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market.
@@TomD226 Thank you for this tip. It was easy to find your coach. Did my due diligence on her before scheduling a phone call with her. She seems proficient considering her résumé.
I have followed Aswath Damodaran for the past two decades. His insight and eloquence never ceases to amaze me.
Its quiet interesting how we reject the reality of our situation and expect to be able to observe it, control it and even change it. I used to be financially depressed until I read a book that made me realized that the secret to making a million is making better investments.
May I ask which investments are good? I've been looking at a few different ones but want others' opinions as well
What I think everyone need is an adviser, who can help you get in and out of any investment at any time and you'd sure be in Profit. With this I feel anyone can basically achieve financial freedom
*STEPHANIE KOPP MEEKS* , That's whom i work with
You can glance her name up on the internet and verify her yourself. she has years of financial market experience
Thanks so much I was able to find her page and I already leave her a message
Big fan of anything Damodaran has to say. Thanks for sharing.
Just wow! A high quality and insightful convo. Thank you Prof's G/D
Thanks to the channel and Professor Aswath Damodaran.
Amazingly wise man. Much respect
Aswath your are simply a GEM. A rare find when it comes to honest opinion. Thank you !
Nvidia at 400 overvalued.
Now its sitting at 740 😅
@@maxs351 that's a different case, It can be highly overvalued.
More quarters and outlooks from big tech names, powered by Nvidia (which has more chips than we thought!), as well as this trader FOMO, may lead to renewed buying strength in markets in September and October. I want to invest more than $300k, but I'm not sure on how to mitigate risk
Nvidia stock is roaring like many did during the 1990s bubble. But this time around, the hype around new chips is happening in a more mature demand environment.
With the help of an investment advisor, I was able to diversify my $550K portfolio across multiple markets, and in just a few months, I was able to earn over $950K in net profit from high dividend yielding stocks, ETFs, and mutual funds
That's impressive ! I could really use the expertise of these advisors.
My advisor is *Alicia Estela Cabouli* With the help of google you can book an appointment. She has a wealth of experience in the financial market gained over several years.
Great interview, glad to have been recommended this channel.
Thank you for this important information
I enjoy Aswath's insight. He's one of the few when I see him on any financial channel I take the TV off of mute.
Prof AD should have shouted the risk safe story during 20-21. As I tuned into his on line lecture series for a couple of years, I found it too technical for the average person but he is brilliant.
Loved the breadth of the questions you asked. Doing so helped to demonstrate the same curiosity that Aswath must have had to begin exploring, considering, and ultimately formulating his responses. Rather than simply consuming, wouldn’t it be great if we all sought to genuinely pursue well considered responses. I’m preaching to myself here (but maybe doing so well be of benefit to others as well.
very impressive guy. actaully all three of you are. well done
I haven't heard Aswath before. I think he's really insightful and perceptive. I think he thinks the way Buffett thinks, which is a compliment in my book.
well he is a literal professor on this stuff
Wow, exceptional guest. Thank you.
Thank you for arranging this amazing informative interview ! Excellent stuff.
I love Aswat!! thank you!!
Excellent guest! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us Aswath.
This is one of the smartest well grounded people I've seen interviewed and I've e seen many, loved his take on Larry Fink, I think its just a matter of time and the meltdown will begin and unreal opportunities will be there but most likely a year or more away. If you adjust for the Bank's loan portfolios and Bond portfolios there all broke, where can you go, please tell me.
Two of my favorite people!
great podcast!
Great question about SNAP, very interesting stock IMO.
What are those companies that are currently undervalued???
Truly impressive for Dr Damodaran to admit he is human and inconsistent, even though he made a killing in NVDA stock
It's not humble, it's common sense. He's in the common sense business as a value investor. Cocky people in finance are just baboons, nobody has a crystal ball.
Great talk by Aswath
Simply Superb
well its over $700 now, i bought in at the $400 price point on fomo, but if i had listened to this i would not have done it, ignorance sometimes can work in your favour
Stupendous! Incredibly wise. This is wisdom at its peak?
He speaks well.
Prof Damodaran (not Galloway) is a treasure 😊
Great Insights Aswath
aswath is very smart
Love this guy. Very knowledgeable
Quality check.... the chart posted in complementing Aswath's commentary about bitcoin being correlated to the stock market shows their performance during the first half of 2021...
Great great talk. I will have to scour the web for his blog
he has a channel
Watching it @ 1.5 X playback speed . This is the sweet spot for this video 🙂
Experts have no idea and most people are sheep. Aswath, great points.
But Aswath Damodaran is an expert, Lol.
As in life, in every profession there are good, bad, and indifferent practitioners. And even then you need to figure out what good actually means. And investors need to develop their own instincts, as it is they who are risking their own money, and not any expert.
I respect Aswath and listen to his lectures even though the stock market is for me at least, is the least interesting one. Why? The Stock Market is like voting. If it changed anything fundamentally, they would ban it. It's become so detached from the real economy, it's more a morality tale in action. You know it's not going to end well. And Aswath is good because he's so grounded in the reality of the stock market and the valuation of businesses. And if I was 22 again, knowing what I know now, I'd still keep my feet on the ground.
Masterclass
Brilliant to have Prof D on the pod … amused by his dismissal of ‘experts’ and preferring markets!
Yeah that was great!
A great channel. One of the best videos.
Good that you tell that you are excited. I did not notice. 😄
Selling half of your position is one of the best ways to leg out of your positions
Damn, this guy is spot on. Sorry to say I had never heard of him until now.
No fault of your own. It's the shills they put in your face everywhere you go to drown out the voice of reason.
Same here. I am impressed.
he has a youtube channel if you are interested. But a warning: his analysis is extremely thorough and complex, with a lots of formulas and calculations. But not too mathematical, more like common sense
Same.
Love his opinion on Larry fink
23:16 Love the talk about the Dark Dide of Disruption and how cheap capital (VC money) destroyed some businesses, like taxis, before a truly viable, profitable alternative had been created.
Great video 👍🏻
Prof Damadaran, what about the partnerships NVDA is getting into in exchange for H100’s?
At the end where he says “Good news is going to be bad news and Bad news is going to be good news” has perfectly described the macro environment for the last 2 years. 🎯 Almost every time there’s an earnings beat on my stocks, the stock price dips and vice versa.
More traders waiting to play the obvious price movements of good/bad news ?
Great interview! Especially liked the part where Aswath takes down Larry Fink :)
Nvidia has had 2 near death experiences ...thanks Prof. Damodaran!
excellent
100% truth
How do I mimic this guy’s portfolio?
Love this guy, a great interview.
I like at 8:35 Scott easily dismantled Aswath's critique of buying Nvidia at an "overvalued" price. Overvalue is subjective when it comes to certain companies.
Yoooooooooo business dream team! What a crossover
Impressive takes - calling balls and strikes!
I got nvda in 2017 because they had best gaming processor. Invest in what you know.
Check out Prof Damodaran's expression at 28:40 when told that Larry Fink said Bitcoin is digital gold. 🤭
Bitcoin IS digital gold! Both are fundamentally worthless, and their value depends entirely on the Greater Fool theory.
Actually, gold does have a few industrial uses, so it's actually worth something. People like to claim that bitcoin has value as a medium of exchange. That might be true for some kinds of illegal activity, but for above-board transactions, craptocurrency is far too unwieldy and unstable to be useful as a store of value.
His reply just proved to me that he actually doesn’t understand it at all ……
And those are not Larrys words he borrowed them … no one trusts old Fink the Prof has that 100% spot on .. that part of the reply he truly knows the subject matter
If AI is really shorthand for computing that uses automated processes to distill data into highly parallelizable algorithms via matrix math, which is what GPUs use, then nvidia is in a good place. Given the potential slowing of moores law, it feels like these kind of parallel processors are going to be very important for a long, long, time.
HOWEVER, everyone is jumping on the 'AI' train in the LLM sense, and there is an overestimation of it's potential use cases and applications. I don't think it will replace as many jobs as the media is piping up. The only reason LLMs work is because the internet provided a relatively structured limitless NLP data source, that does not apply to all of the really valuable uses for AI, such as highly specific skill niches and the computer vision approaches nvidia researches. For that you need more 3D visual data, and for that you need more relatively high-marginal cost (compared to internet/software) networked camera hardware in the world, which we do not yet have. The real issue I've seen from the inside is that, even with these new technologies, entrenched companies are not changing their culture/processes fast enough. In a capital-poor environment startups (who would use these new tools to structure their organization and culture with extremely minimal friction) are produced in less quantity. Thus the effective sticky adoption rate is going to be not so high.
Awesome...too short.
You should've asked hime about LEI index in deep recession territory rather than Yield curve inversion.
Shoutout to the Altcoin Daily community! $ESX tokens are gearing up for their presales and launch, and I'm loving their vision of tokenizing real estate. Keep an eye on this one - it's got potential!
The article may cite Aswath Damodaran's views and research to support the analysis of NVIDIA's valuation and artificial intelligence. There may be references to his research methodology and his expertise in finance.
The word “narrative” has now become a catch all term for unpredictable upside that caught everyone unawares.
I have to say that this episode is a real jewel
He said "I can almost guarantee it" - PhD or not they all end up sounding like FURUs but nonetheless great insight on new market discovery
Also what he does not mention is the stock market “internal mechanics” has self created some of our cyclicality…he can “guarantee” there “revaluation” in the future…
I’ve basically had Palantir, C3 ai, Nvidia on a watchlist all of these have performed above 57% in 1 year I guess it is a good time to buy in on them or have I missed? New to investing, happy to discuss.
Good question. I have been watching other AI stocks like AMD, Broadcom and Marvell. I have a 100 grand to put into the markets now it has shown bullish strength but I am very skeptical.
Chief accountant sold 400k shares on 3rd August along with other 3 directors, over 40 million shares sold 3 days before earnings. Something smells bad. I say sell.
@@marcoerrett Right, my question then is where should I allocate more of my contribution from my paycheck to in my 401k, Tbills and Bonds or stocks since the S & P has climbed 20% YTD?
@@marcoerrett how has that worked out for you so far?
@@marcoerrett Hi can I get a number to this Loren? Vanguard advisor takes forever to pick up, my patience wears thinner with each ring.
Thank you for bringing Prof. Damodaran, Prof G.! It was a great interview.
An absolutely awesome podcast, thanks so much for your incredible insights Aswath, and the Prof G team for your excellent knowledge sharing endeavours.👏🏼👌🏼🇿🇦
I'd not trade 1 Aswath with 1 Billion Cramers. Thank you Aswath. I've learned from you how to stay calm, rational and open minded. Now only if some profits would follow.....
Cramer is too much like Kramer on "Seinfeld." He's an admitted showman, whereas Damodaran is an academic analyst with practical experience who's not trying to harvest clicks and page views.
@@MorrisDugan yea, but a showman impersonating a financial advisor that people take seriously is dangerous. Not to mention his annoying voice. My cat goes and hides every time he comes on.
@@WeaponGrade😅😅😅😅 smart cat
@@WeaponGrade I wonder if you could make money by shorting the companies that Cramer pushes the hardest, especially when their share price is already very high.
This is how people misses out of great upside, fear spreading and I often see the behaviour from people who mentions that “hey I am not affected as I sold my shares “ but I think it’s to high valued yet they are all working today. You think being rich will give you more time and freedom yet this people are full time workers at some university.
Thank you! I have realized this a long long time ago…and are high 6 figure earners…they usually spend to their limit of income…
Money is addictive and work gives people meaning
"....Fink and the experts have no idea what they're talking about." Couldn't agree more. And these fools, so many of them, are shaping our reality. Madness.
Great podcast, but I do miss the more traditional prof g markets podcasts
Meatier content and less whinging about @Elon - what’s not to like?
What does Tom Lee say about NVDA?
Didnt Damodaran a couple of months ago said on CNBC he would not own Nvda at these prices. Well it turns out he owns Nvda though he sold half his position
The heart follows the mind. What is it you make (besides money)? This is where your heart is. Markets are for those who won't or can't make things; living second removed from real struggle. Safe? This is the great depravity of our age.
We have lead Americans to the gaming table, while work becomes denigrated and wagering becomes the road to wealth.
-Dennis Kucinich
I did a bunch of things until the pandemic and the $600 tax reporting reporting rule killed them. You're also not taking into account the disabled and the retired.
@@MorrisDugan - Yes, that is true. And yet, ideas and the creation of them is a tangible good. I was referring to riding the market waves, never giving a thought for the struggling Plebeians generating the excess. While at the same time, they languish over inequality and poverty - all the while they feed the machinations.
We have not advanced for 2000 years or more. Stuck baking donuts for millennia. It's absurd.
@@pjamesbda The workers should get a financial stake in their place of employment, as well as a living wage.
What I wanted to know is his CAGR, that’s all that matters
when was this interview recorded?
The crispr technology could maybe become a market by itself one day
First cash flows should be arriving this year
8:00 I think people often overlook a key element of what make Nvidia a juggernaut over an AMD and thats the middleware market. Nvidia has put a lot of effort into developing and supporting robust firmware/middleware so that software developers can really maximize. Just look to gaming and see how bad an AMD driver is compared to Nvidia.
I think some of the questions asked are silly; e.g. how would a finance prof know whether it would be wise for NVDA to vertically scale?
And yet his answer made perfect sense.
@@maryhadda8420 how do you know? Do you work in high-tech chip production?
The visceral reaction of bringing up crypto is noteworthy
28:51 someone gonna remix that dis on Larry Fink👏
What happened to SVB is really scary, and goes to show that no corporation, however big, is immune to collapse. I have always had a deep-seated mistrust for corporations. I have plans to pull out most of my money, but don't know what to do with $350k sitting idly. I'd like to go into the stock market, maybe. Any ideas?
All big corps are just a cohort of centralised system working together, and any damage to one can have a dangerous ripple effect on every other one. I learned a long time ago to not trust corporations. Most of my money is in the stock market and my businesses. I keep only what I need to spend in my checking account.

Ironically, these are the conditions in which life-changing money is made by those who remain calm, patient, and take controlled risks. Volatility goes both ways. The banks are in a big crisis. The market looks very shaky. The bigger the red candles, the bigger the green ones. I have made over $280k in the last 4 months by investing through my FA
@@Erinmills98 Wow. I've heard similar success story from people who work with advisors. How do I get in touch with yours, please?
@@RickMckee-nq4ni Absolutely, I agree, and the markets are currently in a frenzy. The greatest time to observe them, learn more about them, and take advantage of opportunities to strike is now. My F.A, "Michelle Christine Parker," who has witnessed hundreds of market cycles over the past three decades, taught me this. She has an intuitive understanding of how things move, why they move, and what will happen next..
@@Erinmills98 This information is valuable. I quickly searched her full name and her website appeared instantly, showcasing her impressive qualifications. Thank you for sharing.
I loved the Larry Fink insight. He is a guy with an $11T megaphone!Now that was digital gold
How was Greece? Young man ? 👍🇫🇷🇺🇸
Duh!! How could Prof G not know that San Diego is in "Southern" not Northern California?
I am bookmarking this video to come back to it in a year. I am betting against Damodaran and his NVDA valuation because I suspect he has not factored in the US military applications for AI coming down the road...
come back and let us know
most likely your wrong, you should sell everything you own and put into NVDA for a year.
@@rodneybarington4483 I have 70% of my stock holdings in NVDA already...
@@bvssrsguntur6338 I can do that but you can also make note of this date and the stock price of NVDA and see for yourself next year... :)
I agree, everyone is so focused on how AI is going to affect the Tech industry but other industries have been shifting towards AI as well. I've heard friends on the Legal side talk about how AI is affecting them, AI is taking over the media with magazines, advertisements, high end fashion most likley will be using AI to enhance their photos. And what about the whole automotive industry? I know it will be later but the market will eventually bring in AI. Are these being considered?

If everybody has it, no one has it. - insight!
nvdia going to $800 !!!! Don’t miss out
You predicted right!
@@valoriefalorie4223 ALSO HAVE SMCI TO $2000 END OF FEB!!!
Amazon from day one was ‘could happen story’! It has surprised everyone from a book store to becoming a tech behemoth, so what is surprising about NVDA or TSLA. Having exuberant valuation ? Just find the right price and jump in. Lesson learned from living through 2018 when nvda corrected 40% due to inventory buildup and crypto cracks.
Question: Is Dr. Damodaran taking into consideration the use of Nividia chips in AI military use coming over the next decade? The US military will be spending a fortune on AI weapons... Please advise. Thank you.
