Yeah, I bought before the split, so my average is pretty good. Just gonna sit on them. Turning towards utilities now which are also in the AI hype. But at least they are utilities, most low enough to pay a good dividend.
I find the argument extremely absurd to say this time is different to the Dotcom bubble because this time the companies actually make money. Yes, they do but the valuation is just mindboggling. We started with PE, now where taking the PE of next years (maybe) earnings so it does not appear too absurd. Somehow people are willing to pay 3.5 T dollars for a company that made like 50 billion over the last 5 years, mostly last year. Yes this year will be good, but that does not justify the valuation by any means. This margin and this expentiture for virtually no AI profit and just costs for the companies is unsustainable. All this makes the way down so much longer.
The current valuation does not care what the company made last year or the year before that, only what it will make in the future. Nvidia is on track to make $70B in 2024, and they are forecast to keep growing rapidly next year with the release of their new Blackwell chip in Q4 which is a massive improvement on the current AI chips they are selling. Demand for that is extremely high by all accounts. There's a strong possibility that Nvidia will become the most profitable company in the world already in 2025, ahead of Apple. So when you account for growth the valuation of Nvidia is no more ridiculous than the likes of Apple, Microsoft, Google etc, in fact it looks cheaper by comparison. If you don't account for that (which Sven clearly doesn't), of course the valuation looks ridiculous. But you can't call yourself a "value investor" and not look at growth, Sven is just being lazy here to push his usual narrative (everything is overvalued).

@@johnkraemer9610 years is way too long for me to own Nvidia, anyone pretending they can make a forecast for a tech company that far out is lying to you. However, I'm very confident that Nvidia will grow a lot in the coming 2-3 years. I am particularly confident that 2025 will be an incredible year with revenue growth somewhere around 50% compared to this year. When I get to a point where I feel that I don't have a good grasp on what the growth will look like in the coming 12-18 months, then I will sell, as simple as that. Nvidia is not a buy and hold forever as far as I'm concerned. But for the moment it looks attractive.
Since 2008 it's been very fashionable predict the next crisis or bubble. If you believe the market is bullshit you are just naive or inexperienced or a mainstream media. If you say the market will crash whenever you are a genius.
Call8ng being in a bubble doesn't imply the bubble will immediately pop. Margins can still go higher but they cannot be sustained at current levels. Meaning valuations are unsustainable. But valuations are also an indicator of sentiment. And sentiment knows no bounds.

Generai AI has always been 20 years around the corner, same as nuclear fusion. As a research scientist, seeing the stock market explode on the promise of a future technology that hasnt been proven yet has the words "ponzi scam" written all over it. Real technological development takes years if not decades of trial and error coupled with small incremental improvements that are completely unnoticeable for anyone who isn't an expert in the field.

@@DanielGonzalez-jv1gx There are good reasons to believe LLMs are hitting a limit and will never be able to do anything resembling reasoning due to fundamentally flawed assumptions in their architecture. LLMs might seem intelligence because they can superficially imitate human communication. However I tried coding with it and asking a few very basic level arithmetic and logic problems, and it is patently obvious it has absolutely no idea of what it is doing unless you show it something it has already seen, or a very close version of it. Of course they are good for translating, finding basic information and generating quick content that's surface-level passable, but there's a huge gap between that and performing real cognitive work. Human intelligence and skill is a bit more nuanced than regurgitating bits and pieces of previous conversations, songs or visual art and arranging them in a collage.
Wow! That comparison to Cisco is worrying!! I set my stop loss on Nvidia, if it drops 10% will sell automatically and I still make some gains so zero risk for me!
@@bartvanderheijden7055 It provides an indication towards what can happen. In order to earn a return from an idiotik multiple, only a perfect scenario works (for both the business, the sector and the overall market).

If I gave cash to a monkey and had him watch CNBC for a while, would he end up with the same portfolio as you? If so...
A lot of NVIDIA and other tech stock is actually being purchased with debt thru the yen (and other) carry trade(s), which despite what retail financial press would have people believe, it is still alive and well.
Awesome video🤩 Also just wanted to mention there are other investment options too-like Cryptonica's Crypto ATMS liquidity pool which delivers a steady 2.5% daily return.
You live and learn. I made mistakes in first few years. Lots of companies/investments did not work for me. I have wised up a lot since then. I go through the account to see that they are making profits etc.
Hi Sven. First of all, that's a great jumper. It looks good on you! Secondly, could you clarify what you think will be the interplay between the "normal" chip cycle downturn (non AI chip orders are taking longer to recover than expected as per ASML, BESI, AMD) and the slowdown in the AI hype? Is this building up to be a catastrophic conjunction of events? In all of this, is there a chance for the bubble to deflate and "normalise" or there could only be a loud pop?
If someone is new to this channel: Everything what Sven said to this date, came out as opposite. If you don't believe me, go watch his videos from 2017,2018 :) So, if he says sell Nvidia, you should buy it. You can make a virtual watchlist with his all recommendations and do everything opposite - that portfolio will outperform the market with a big margin :)
Wish you guys all the best. I suggest making a portfolio going against his predictions, and making a TH-cam video on it in a year or two. That could really blow up your channel.

@@user-pf3ow1tu3f If you bought the SPY 2 years ago and it drops 50% now, you would still be ahead by about 30%. Sven and most of the youtube financial gurus are just fools.
Brilliant analysis!!! I agree with your analysis but NVIDIA's revenue growth rates are just too dramatic to dismiss. I used your intrinsic value calculation tool and, even with the harshest parameters (and 15% discount rate), the final sum was higher than NVIDIA's current market cap. The stock will go down (as mega scalers catch up and neutralize NVIDIA's differentiation), the question is when...
There was a lot of optimism towards Cisco, Intel, Microsoft, Amazon in the 90s... How did long term holding without thinking work? Cisco and Intel never saw those prices again. Microsoft saw 14 years of no return. Even if you held through today, annualized return since the highs of the bubble were under 10%.
Far to many value short sellers have joined the Long Only religion. Shorting Tesla and NVDIA has pushed toward this religion as well. Unless the FED gets serious about monetary constraint then there will be plenty of money around to fuel bubbles.
Hi Sven Some share buyback when overvalued makes sense: a. to mitigate employee compensation plan. b. To mitigate effect of major stake holder selling (kind of passing money from the company to stakeholders without affecting the rest). From all the big teck nvdia issued the list (checked in genAI so it might be wrong) but it justify just a 1/10.... Maybe they try to neutralize all shares sold by the employees. Share buybacks while overvalued is insane.
@Value-Investing true, but investor do not want to be deluted, I can imagine the cfo ppl doing buyback in the rate they "print" as a PR, Ppl (I) want to know we are not being deluted.
I was a bit late to Tesla, and therefore in my case the stock has mainly traded sideways and I have not made much only about 25%, I continue to own the stock. You live and learn. I owned Palantir from the start, and will continue to own it, in my point of view it is an established company, and has many contracts with Government, Military, Health, etc. I like and liked Palantir's business from the outset. And will continue to own it.
Bullish or bearish, AI stocks will still dominate 2024, even beyond. Why I prefer NVIDIA is that they are better placed to maintain long-term growth potential, and provide a platform for other AI companies. I know someone who has made more than 200% from NVIDIA. I'll also take these other recommendations you made.
I agree, just because the market presents opportunities doesn't mean we should rush in headfirst. For this reason, we should look for appropriate market analysis or guidance or seek advice from certified market strategists.

As long as company grows i don’t see any bubble.Cisco has nothing to do with nvidia.the level of tech is joke nvda vs cisco.73 years cash flow without counting huge growth.
By mid-2000, Cisco had been growing net income at a 50% cagr over 5 years. Between then and 2007, before the great recession, net income tripled again. And yet the shares... This is a cyclical sector: "huge growth" is in the past. Sooner than later, these businesses will struggle to even sustain revenues, let alone grow. Then analysts adjust growth rates and multiples at once in their models, downgrades... and speculators move onto the next glowy thing.
The sad things to me is I bought nvidia before all this shits Ai happened. I wanted keep for life. Now I am doubt to sell or not. I invested a ridiculous low amount. So that money doesn’t change my day. What should I do?
It is a semi conductor company its hardware. Cisco and Nortel the darlings 25 years ago couldn't monetize the internet. The software companies are the ones that can make money from AI, just as Amazon and Google did from internet. There are fundemental reasons why inventors of any new technological innovation don't make money on what they create. It is the application of the technology that are the companies to watch. Think about how Microsoft changed focus 10 years ago and now get most of its growth in revenue from the cloud. The cash revenue from its operational systems allowed it at the time to adapt and change its business. Apple before that was almost bankrupt, and it transformed itself with i phone, an idea that started with Blackberry, the original company with handhelds. Blackberry is still in business, but its handhelds are not used. The one consistant is that the original leaders usually don't monetize the new idea.
I know you posted about fertilizer stocks. What do you think about CVR Partners? they produce nitrogen fertilizers. Interestingly, they are owned 40% by CVI energy, a refiner, which dropped 25% yesterday on "mid-cycle crude oil prices" and dividend cut. You can buy CVR partners cheap and get a refiner with good dividend yield in the future for the price if you buy CVI. Carl Icahn own 70% of CVI.
You should take a look at NVDA next fiscal year, EPS 4.06, that is above only 34x Forward PE. It is still high, but far from bubble considering its industry leading monopoly position. Do some study befoe publishing videos. By the way, bubble is not a bad thing, you cant make a good money without bubble.
"A new industrial revolution" is the kind of new era sentiment that you see at optimistic tops. In 99-00 the internet was going to bring about a new era, where the business cycle had been rendered irrelevant. I don't think we are seeing the kind of 99 bubble now, though 2021 was very close with people paying $millions for monkey jpegs. A lot of people think we have to top with that kind of crazy speculation, but maybe we already had the crazy part in 21, now we are more in a nifty fifty market.
Hey Sven, CROX Q3 earnings just came out, down 20% despite beating estimates, it is looking at a much better buy now, solid business with a PE of 10. Would love if u can review the stock.
*How do you know Nvidia will not invent some A.I. trading program, and the stock will trade itself to $1 million dollars and become self aware and destroy all short sellers* hahaha...
Nvidia has only achieved a temporary monopoly because the software stack for ai requires a compiler from the ml frameworks like PyTorch to the gpu machine code But intel amd Tesla meta aws Microsoft are all working on cuda alternatives that will lead to any gpu manufacturer to be able to sell compute as a commodity Nvidia margins will go from 70% to 7%
Right now they are differentiated with the s/w stack you mention. I believe AI is very expensive to acquire, implement, power, and maintain. Most orgs will dabble in it then decide the economics aren’t there. Probably another 2 or 3 yrs till the trough of disillusionment.
9:43 😂😂 Thanks for the video Sven. No idea whether NVDA is in bubble territory or not. However, your analogy to Cisco is wrong. Back then the expectation was that the telcos would charge for traffic priority on the internet, becoming the defacto internet "gatekeepers". And that they'd rush to invest heavily into new equipment, thus bidding up the (then SotA) Cisco hardware. Of course, "net neutrality" killed that thesis and allowed for the emergence of the internet startups and, later, megacorps (Alphabet, Meta, AMZN, etc.) Cisco had no "moat", it's current equivalent would probably be TSMC. NVDA has IP going back 30 years and is so far ahead of other chip makers, they can't even see them. Moreover, back then Chinese companies started copying switches and network devices pushing prices down. Good luck doing that with NVDA designs in the current geopolitical environment. And as you admit, the Internet and WWW was a revolution. And trillions were made in the last 20 years, just not by Cisco or the telcos!
not long NVDA, but 73X cash flow means 73 years to get your money back is only if there is no growth. if the cash flow increases 30% for just 2 years and then stayed flat, it would only take 43 years. Or, if cash flow increases 30% for 2 years and then a mere 5% thereafter, it would only take 25 years. That's not bad at all (still not cheap, but not 73 years!)
totally agree. but with the huge amount of chips BigTechs are buying right now and in the short future, you think they will maintain this level of buy for the next 43 years?
@@jirojiro1029 Except that you are not really getting any money back. Even if they sustain current buyback levels: 21b in buybacks minus 4b in stock compensation is 17b, which is a meager 0.5% yield… The moment there is any disappointment, this will be the sweetest short candy for daytraders.

Sven has made about 14% this year while the SPY has gone up 30%. All because he is contantly worried that the Mag 7 stocks will crash. He doesn't know what he is doing.
At current valuations it'll be hard for SPY to continue the growth rate for the next 5-10 years. Also remember SPY had 0% return for two years in 2022 and 2023.
If your focus is on the ups and downs, I am afraid it is you who doesn't know what he is doing. He is not worried about anything: he invests in assets where he sees value and compounds over time.
Yes, but completely reliant on a few hardware customers, although Nvidia definitely will grow upcoming 12+ months, I mean shovels are great as long as there are new gold miners incoming to your town :D
Sven P/ cash flow (or P/E) is useless for tech stock, what matters is G for scalable businesses. Forgot price/sales, price to book and similar, they don’t fit good in today world environment. They only lead you to missed opportunities. Since you’ve been saying everything is overvalued and in a bubble, Tesla and Palantir have done 10-20x. Yes, one day the correction will come. Set your stop-loss (trailing) and enjoy the ride. I think your philosophy is now unsuitable for the current context. However, if you believe it is winning, please share your portfolio and make it public.

Anyway, I keep following you for comparison and to test my potential biases. Thanks for that
He is investing. If Nvidia does great in the future, he is okay. If Nvidia does terrible in the future, he is okay. Compounding slow and steady no matter what. Meanwhile, every tech-obsessed clown out there is only okay in one scenario, one in which growth stays strong in perpetuity, margins stay wide and multiples stay idiotik. Ungortunately, there is not one example in history in which that worked from current multiples, so best of luck.
But does this mean you should short Nvidia? :D Absolutely not unfortunately. Shorts are the same as buying, just for a future date. So in essence you are a new stock buyer, ask a market maker to sell, promising to buy back at a later date, giving them a little premium. How hard this can backfire can be seen at... well Tesla's entire existence lmao. Put options are a better bet but for now I'd just stay away from Nvidia and other AI hype stocks. Nvidia does look like a 2001 Microsoft though. It took 20 years to have a positive return on MSFT. Not even taking Inflation into account...

When I get to a point where I feel that I don't have a good grasp on what the growth will look like in the coming 12-18 months, then I will sell, as simple as that. Nvidia is not a buy and hold forever as far as I'm concerned. But for the moment it looks attractive.
The same Ray Dalio who said we were on a bubble in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and now, 2024? At certain moment in time he will be right.
Since 2008 it's been very fashionable predict the next crisis or bubble. If you believe the market is bullshit you are just naive or inexperienced or a mainstream media. If you say the market will crash whenever you are a genius.
I am not a Dalio-Fan, but: You can be in a bubble for 10 Years straight ;) ...
Call8ng being in a bubble doesn't imply the bubble will immediately pop. Margins can still go higher but they cannot be sustained at current levels. Meaning valuations are unsustainable. But valuations are also an indicator of sentiment. And sentiment knows no bounds.
The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.
@@georgeballew3181 I know Buffet quotes, but we are speaking about ego here. Dalio wants recognition, it's all about his ego. If you read his book, you will notice it. The worst thing with this "predictions" is how misleading they are for investors. Do your own due dilligence and don't pay attetion to Dalio, to Sven nor to anybody else.
Generai AI has always been 20 years around the corner, same as nuclear fusion.
As a research scientist, seeing the stock market explode on the promise of a future technology that hasnt been proven yet has the words "ponzi scam" written all over it. Real technological development takes years if not decades of trial and error coupled with small incremental improvements that are completely unnoticeable for anyone who isn't an expert in the field.
Agreed. I want to see how all this "IA" extra spending (either in marketing or chips) is translated into productivity or higher revenues/earnings. I don't see it happening that early
@@DanielGonzalez-jv1gx There are good reasons to believe LLMs are hitting a limit and will never be able to do anything resembling reasoning due to fundamentally flawed assumptions in their architecture.
LLMs might seem intelligence because they can superficially imitate human communication. However I tried coding with it and asking a few very basic level arithmetic and logic problems, and it is patently obvious it has absolutely no idea of what it is doing unless you show it something it has already seen, or a very close version of it.
Of course they are good for translating, finding basic information and generating quick content that's surface-level passable, but there's a huge gap between that and performing real cognitive work. Human intelligence and skill is a bit more nuanced than regurgitating bits and pieces of previous conversations, songs or visual art and arranging them in a collage.
Great video, great sweater.
Wow! That comparison to Cisco is worrying!! I set my stop loss on Nvidia, if it drops 10% will sell automatically and I still make some gains so zero risk for me!
You also can compare it to Intel but that doesn't make it true. Analyses by this so called Ph.D. are below par.
@@bartvanderheijden7055 It provides an indication towards what can happen.
In order to earn a return from an idiotik multiple, only a perfect scenario works (for both the business, the sector and the overall market). So:
Risk: a Cisco scenario, semis cycle downturn, multiple compression market cycle, etc.
Reward: unlikely outsized returns from an already high multiple.

Nice quick bubbling analysis. Thank you Sven. I hope many naive investors see this video!
its not a damn bubble, your clearly wrong
A lot of NVIDIA and other tech stock is actually being purchased with debt thru the yen (and other) carry trade(s), which despite what retail financial press would have people believe, it is still alive and well.
Nice one Sven. Takes some guts to call that out to the herd. And love that last remark 'This time its different'!
Today the DEX in By-bit is lagging!!
I just done video to show that

Aiaiai I'm just going to drink some bubbles while watching this story unfold from the sideline. 😆
Awesome video🤩 Also just wanted to mention there are other investment options too-like Cryptonica's Crypto ATMS liquidity pool which delivers a steady 2.5% daily return.
2.5% daily return? Gtf outta here
The fact that the analyst is now on TH-cam had me cracking up! 🤣🤣🤣
You live and learn. I made mistakes in first few years. Lots of companies/investments did not work for me. I have wised up a lot since then.
I go through the account to see that they are making profits etc.
Love the humor 😂 keep the vids comin Sven ❤
thanks, will do!
This is informative golden content; thanks Sven.
This video will age like the finest of wines hehe
:-))
This video will become one of those 'i told you so' resource for NVIDIA once the bubble pops.
Its only a matter of time now. Tick tock tick tock...
maybe yes, maybe no, but I am just not taking the risk
Nice sweater, Sven the man! You've been putting out a lot of content lately. Love it :-)
Awesome sweater... very 70s!
Hi Sven. First of all, that's a great jumper. It looks good on you! Secondly, could you clarify what you think will be the interplay between the "normal" chip cycle downturn (non AI chip orders are taking longer to recover than expected as per ASML, BESI, AMD) and the slowdown in the AI hype? Is this building up to be a catastrophic conjunction of events?
In all of this, is there a chance for the bubble to deflate and "normalise" or there could only be a loud pop?
Let's be real, the whole catyalyst for AI melt up was the silly Chat GPT that wrote a C grade high school term paper
Maybe read a bit about AI before commenting. The scope is a bit wider.
'somewhere here was a guy telling people nvidia was a sell and he probably got fired and now runs a small youtube channel'
XDDDD
If someone is new to this channel: Everything what Sven said to this date, came out as opposite. If you don't believe me, go watch his videos from 2017,2018 :) So, if he says sell Nvidia, you should buy it. You can make a virtual watchlist with his all recommendations and do everything opposite - that portfolio will outperform the market with a big margin :)
Sven has no idea what he is doing. He is just depressed so everything he says is negative.
Wish you guys all the best. I suggest making a portfolio going against his predictions, and making a TH-cam video on it in a year or two. That could really blow up your channel.
Absolutely, he’s mad because he’s not participating in nvda bull run. Psychologically can’t admit he was and is wrong, so blame it on a bubble, he is a fool
@@user-pf3ow1tu3f If you bought the SPY 2 years ago and it drops 50% now, you would still be ahead by about 30%. Sven and most of the youtube financial gurus are just fools.
😮
Just what the doctor ordered. Thank you for the content Sven.
Brilliant analysis!!! I agree with your analysis but NVIDIA's revenue growth rates are just too dramatic to dismiss. I used your intrinsic value calculation tool and, even with the harshest parameters (and 15% discount rate), the final sum was higher than NVIDIA's current market cap. The stock will go down (as mega scalers catch up and neutralize NVIDIA's differentiation), the question is when...
3,5 T market cap is enough information already :)
There's a lot of optimism for Nvidia but I'm holding it long-term!
There was a lot of optimism towards Cisco, Intel, Microsoft, Amazon in the 90s... How did long term holding without thinking work?
Cisco and Intel never saw those prices again.
Microsoft saw 14 years of no return. Even if you held through today, annualized return since the highs of the bubble were under 10%.
Far to many value short sellers have joined the Long Only religion. Shorting Tesla and NVDIA has pushed toward this religion as well. Unless the FED gets serious about monetary constraint then there will be plenty of money around to fuel bubbles.
Hi Sven
Some share buyback when overvalued makes sense:
a. to mitigate employee compensation plan.
b. To mitigate effect of major stake holder selling (kind of passing money from the company to stakeholders without affecting the rest).
From all the big teck nvdia issued the list (checked in genAI so it might be wrong)
but it justify just a 1/10....
Maybe they try to neutralize all shares sold by the employees.
Share buybacks while overvalued is insane.
I would disagree on a and b too, that is a cost and the hide it through buybacks.
@Value-Investing true, but investor do not want to be deluted, I can imagine the cfo ppl doing buyback in the rate they "print" as a PR, Ppl (I) want to know we are not being deluted.
Buybacks with this valuation....this world is crazy.
i wonder if you think apple or google or amazon is a bubble?
I was a bit late to Tesla, and therefore in my case the stock has mainly traded sideways and I have not made much only about 25%, I continue to own the stock. You live and learn.
I owned Palantir from the start, and will continue to own it, in my point of view it is an established company, and has many contracts with Government, Military, Health, etc. I like and liked Palantir's business from the outset. And will continue to own it.
Bullish or bearish, AI stocks will still dominate 2024, even beyond. Why I prefer NVIDIA is that they are better placed to maintain long-term growth potential, and provide a platform for other AI companies. I know someone who has made more than 200% from NVIDIA. I'll also take these other recommendations you made.
I agree, just because the market presents opportunities doesn't mean we should rush in headfirst. For this reason, we should look for appropriate market analysis or guidance or seek advice from certified market strategists.
@@AllsopsBrowns No doubt, having the right plan is invaluable, my portfolio is well-matched for every season of the market and recently hit a 100% rise from early last year. I and my CFP are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, tho this could take till Q3 2024.

As long as company grows i don’t see any bubble.Cisco has nothing to do with nvidia.the level of tech is joke nvda vs cisco.73 years cash flow without counting huge growth.
Wait til March 2025 and see what happens
By mid-2000, Cisco had been growing net income at a 50% cagr over 5 years.
Between then and 2007, before the great recession, net income tripled again. And yet the shares...
This is a cyclical sector: "huge growth" is in the past. Sooner than later, these businesses will struggle to even sustain revenues, let alone grow.
Then analysts adjust growth rates and multiples at once in their models, downgrades... and speculators move onto the next glowy thing.
hell yes
What puts are we buying?
The sad things to me is I bought nvidia before all this shits Ai happened. I wanted keep for life. Now I am doubt to sell or not. I invested a ridiculous low amount. So that money doesn’t change my day. What should I do?
focus on other things in life:-)
Good views, points, and presentation! If detail Cisco's data and stats are shown and compared to Nvidia's, that would be perfect. The 73 times 👈👏
Good point!
It is a semi conductor company its hardware. Cisco and Nortel the darlings 25 years ago couldn't monetize the internet. The software companies are the ones that can make money from AI, just as Amazon and Google did from internet. There are fundemental reasons why inventors of any new technological innovation don't make money on what they create. It is the application of the technology that are the companies to watch. Think about how Microsoft changed focus 10 years ago and now get most of its growth in revenue from the cloud. The cash revenue from its operational systems allowed it at the time to adapt and change its business. Apple before that was almost bankrupt, and it transformed itself with i phone, an idea that started with Blackberry, the original company with handhelds. Blackberry is still in business, but its handhelds are not used. The one consistant is that the original leaders usually don't monetize the new idea.
Yuppp, Sven really knows how it is, to be “fired” and start TH-cam channel 😂
First we need to talk about how glorious that sweater is.
:-)
I know you posted about fertilizer stocks. What do you think about CVR Partners? they produce nitrogen fertilizers. Interestingly, they are owned 40% by CVI energy, a refiner, which dropped 25% yesterday on "mid-cycle crude oil prices" and dividend cut. You can buy CVR partners cheap and get a refiner with good dividend yield in the future for the price if you buy CVI. Carl Icahn own 70% of CVI.
Hi Sven, could you please analyse Estee Lauder and Disney as they are good brands and on decade low price levels?
You should take a look at NVDA next fiscal year, EPS 4.06, that is above only 34x Forward PE. It is still high, but far from bubble considering its industry leading monopoly position. Do some study befoe publishing videos. By the way, bubble is not a bad thing, you cant make a good money without bubble.
Is he the analyst who got fires
hahaha
Show me the incentive, I'll show you the outcome
"A new industrial revolution" is the kind of new era sentiment that you see at optimistic tops. In 99-00 the internet was going to bring about a new era, where the business cycle had been rendered irrelevant. I don't think we are seeing the kind of 99 bubble now, though 2021 was very close with people paying $millions for monkey jpegs. A lot of people think we have to top with that kind of crazy speculation, but maybe we already had the crazy part in 21, now we are more in a nifty fifty market.
yep!
9:28 hilarious
:-)
🤣🤣🤣
Hey Sven, CROX Q3 earnings just came out, down 20% despite beating estimates, it is looking at a much better buy now, solid business with a PE of 10. Would love if u can review the stock.
*How do you know Nvidia will not invent some A.I. trading program, and the stock will trade itself to $1 million dollars and become self aware and destroy all short sellers* hahaha...
I think that scenario is already priced in 🤭
Nvidia CEO Huang suggested the name Nvidia, from "invidia", the Latin word for "envy"
Nvidia has only achieved a temporary monopoly because the software stack for ai requires a compiler from the ml frameworks like PyTorch to the gpu machine code
But intel amd Tesla meta aws Microsoft are all working on cuda alternatives that will lead to any gpu manufacturer to be able to sell compute as a commodity
Nvidia margins will go from 70% to 7%
very possible!
Right now they are differentiated with the s/w stack you mention. I believe AI is very expensive to acquire, implement, power, and maintain. Most orgs will dabble in it then decide the economics aren’t there. Probably another 2 or 3 yrs till the trough of disillusionment.
9:43 😂😂
Thanks for the video Sven.
No idea whether NVDA is in bubble territory or not.
However, your analogy to Cisco is wrong.
Back then the expectation was that the telcos would charge for traffic priority on the internet, becoming the defacto internet "gatekeepers". And that they'd rush to invest heavily into new equipment, thus bidding up the (then SotA) Cisco hardware.
Of course, "net neutrality" killed that thesis and allowed for the emergence of the internet startups and, later, megacorps (Alphabet, Meta, AMZN, etc.)
Cisco had no "moat", it's current equivalent would probably be TSMC.
NVDA has IP going back 30 years and is so far ahead of other chip makers, they can't even see them.
Moreover, back then Chinese companies started copying switches and network devices pushing prices down.
Good luck doing that with NVDA designs in the current geopolitical environment.
And as you admit, the Internet and WWW was a revolution.
And trillions were made in the last 20 years, just not by Cisco or the telcos!
Any interest in Carrefour stock? It’s definitely not the hot topic right now but it looks like an interesting opportunity
If you’re into bass fishing, let me know when you want to take a trip to the states and I’d be happy to host you. Serious offer. Family welcome.
ASML?
Did Sven put on weight?
Yes, have to lower a bit on the carbs
not long NVDA, but 73X cash flow means 73 years to get your money back is only if there is no growth. if the cash flow increases 30% for just 2 years and then stayed flat, it would only take 43 years. Or, if cash flow increases 30% for 2 years and then a mere 5% thereafter, it would only take 25 years. That's not bad at all (still not cheap, but not 73 years!)
totally agree. but with the huge amount of chips BigTechs are buying right now and in the short future, you think they will maintain this level of buy for the next 43 years?
@ I don’t think so that’s why I don’t own it
@@jirojiro1029 Except that you are not really getting any money back. Even if they sustain current buyback levels: 21b in buybacks minus 4b in stock compensation is 17b, which is a meager 0.5% yield… The moment there is any disappointment, this will be the sweetest short candy for daytraders.

A bubble can only be considered as such if/after it has popped... there are countless examples of bubbles (like SPAC etc) which fit but also countless which you conveniently chose to ignore - for example you said BTC was a bubble when it started coming down and yet now it's at all time high... 🙄... is nvda a bubble? who knows... also everyone mentions CSCO during the tech bubble, but what about AMZN? that also was always considered a bubble stock ...
Buy more Palantir
Buying a stock is easy, but buying the right stock without a time-tested strategy is incredibly hard. Hence what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist? I’ve been trying to grow my portfolio of $560K for sometime now, my major challenge is not knowing the best entry and exit strategie;s ... I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
Investing without proper guidance can lead to mistakes and losses. I've learned this from my own experience. If you're new to investing or don't have much time, it's best to get advice from an expert.
A lot of folks downplay the role of advlsors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k.
How can one find a verifiable financial planner? I would not mind looking up the professional that helped you. I will be retiring in two years and I might need some management on my much larger portfolio. Don't want to take any chances.

Would be intresting what you think about OXY and DVN at actual levels 😅 Not that insane PEs as NVIDIA 😂

thanks for sharing!
Guys, I need 2x from here, let me first sell and then I’m fine if the bubble pops
This is the perfect mentality to lose money. I suggest you reassess your goals, risk and strategy today
$7 trillion valuation 😱
ok all out, take ur money and run
Nvidia 10x EPS and share price 10x. Thats not a bubble. Thats Peter Lynch's Earnings, Earnings, Earnings.
i think there is no business in the future without chips. So market for chips will be lots of trillions.
Analyst got fired because said nvidea is a sell and is now a small youtuber
Bubble or not, does it matter? Buying nvidia stock now is most likely a really bad decision
Nvidia is a bubble, and tell me I'm stupid when it might go up a lot more from here!
Sven has made about 14% this year while the SPY has gone up 30%. All because he is contantly worried that the Mag 7 stocks will crash. He doesn't know what he is doing.
At current valuations it'll be hard for SPY to continue the growth rate for the next 5-10 years.
Also remember SPY had 0% return for two years in 2022 and 2023.
If your focus is on the ups and downs, I am afraid it is you who doesn't know what he is doing. He is not worried about anything: he invests in assets where he sees value and compounds over time.
The market is hedged with options Nvidia is the market so if Nvidia goes everything goes with it - sounds like this guy missed out
NVDA to the moon 🎉
this the same guy who invested in that russian oil company? yea howd that work out for you.
actually it worked ok, as we sold on the risk materializing! thanks!
I thought Nvidia was in bubble 2017, no TH-cam channel though.
cash flow is growing at a rate of 39% though.
Yes, but completely reliant on a few hardware customers, although Nvidia definitely will grow upcoming 12+ months, I mean shovels are great as long as there are new gold miners incoming to your town :D
I listened to Sven two years ago not buying nvda, I missed huge😢
Sven P/ cash flow (or P/E) is useless for tech stock, what matters is G for scalable businesses. Forgot price/sales, price to book and similar, they don’t fit good in today world environment. They only lead you to missed opportunities. Since you’ve been saying everything is overvalued and in a bubble, Tesla and Palantir have done 10-20x. Yes, one day the correction will come. Set your stop-loss (trailing) and enjoy the ride. I think your philosophy is now unsuitable for the current context. However, if you believe it is winning, please share your portfolio and make it public. If you can demonstrate that it has historically performed better than the market (S&P 500), I would be happy to pay for a subscription to your platform. Anyway, I keep following you for comparison and to test my potential biases. Thanks for that
i would say you Sven are in a bubble
He is investing. If Nvidia does great in the future, he is okay. If Nvidia does terrible in the future, he is okay. Compounding slow and steady no matter what.
Meanwhile, every tech-obsessed clown out there is only okay in one scenario, one in which growth stays strong in perpetuity, margins stay wide and multiples stay idiotik. Ungortunately, there is not one example in history in which that worked from current multiples, so best of luck.
NVIDA reminds me of Lucent.
Same insanity.
Same channel stuffing.
Another example Supermicro a pure AI BUBBLE with accounting BS 😅
For nvidia why the hell would anyone think NVDA is worth more than APPl. 😅😅😅
🗽 Correct, NVDA is now a clear SELL!
.
Microstrategy stock is even worse...
It's all AI. Just like in Dotcom - the internet came to stay, but the evaluations are off. Investment is flowing in like they all braindead.
But does this mean you should short Nvidia? :D Absolutely not unfortunately.
Shorts are the same as buying, just for a future date. So in essence you are a new stock buyer, ask a market maker to sell, promising to buy back at a later date, giving them a little premium.
How hard this can backfire can be seen at... well Tesla's entire existence lmao. Put options are a better bet but for now I'd just stay away from Nvidia and other AI hype stocks. Nvidia does look like a 2001 Microsoft though. It took 20 years to have a positive return on MSFT. Not even taking Inflation into account...
In short about shorts: “Markets can remain irrational for longer than you can remain solvent.”
@@viktorianas Yup. That's why puts are fine but shorts are dumb.
