- Nvidia (NVDA) Stock Price Lags Massive Earnings Growth—A Compelling Value Opportunity
Munro Partners' Munro Global Growth Fund posted a -12.6% net return in Q3 2026, trailing the MAET.ASX return of -13.8%, with long holdings the main detractors. The fund's letter named NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) its largest contributor, citing strong earnings growth and guidance for at least 70% revenue growth next fiscal year, versus consensus of 45%. Nvidia reported quarterly revenue of USD96.2bn in August, up 106% year on year, and management said growth would have been closer to 100% without supply constraints. As of October 12, 2026, NVDA closed at $214.13, down 4.23% over the past month and up 19.23% over the past year, with a $5.16 trillion market cap and a 52-week range of $164.27 to $243.37. The fund says demand for semiconductors and AI remains strong, creating a constructive setup as capex and political fears are now priced in.
- This Magnificent Seven Stock Could Make Investors Richer by 2027
The article assesses NVIDIA, which trades at $222.58, up 19.63% year to date, and says reaching $400 by the end of 2027 would require about an 80% gain. The consensus price target is $328.72, implying 47.7% upside, and analysts expect fiscal 2028 revenue of $692.2 billion, up 68% from $411.7 billion, with EPS of $15.9146. At $400, the forward P/E would be about 25x, versus roughly 14x fiscal 2028 earnings at the current price. Catalysts cited include the Vera Rubin ramp, top five hyperscaler capex rising from nearly $800 billion in 2026 to $1.3 trillion in 2027, and demand exceeding supply. Risks include China data center revenue being excluded from guidance, gross margins falling to 71% to 72% in Q4 due to memory costs, and a beta of 2.216.
- Semiconductor Sell-Off: 5 Stocks to Buy on the Dip
The article attributes the semiconductor selloff to investor doubts about the durability of AI infrastructure spending, even as cloud companies report strong demand for AI chips. It highlights five stocks: Nvidia (forward P/E just above 13.5 on fiscal 2028 estimates), Broadcom (custom AI chips, with that revenue expected to quadruple to $230 billion over two years; forward P/E of 11), AMD (riding inference and agentic AI demand), Cerebras Systems (high risk-reward; the company claims 30 times the inference speed of GPUs) and TSMC (forward P/E of 18 on 2027 estimates).
- Nvidia's Valuation and Narrative Risk are High Now So Act Accordingly
Nvidia beat earnings forecasts again, reporting revenue of $96.22B, up 105.8%, and EPS of $2.22 versus $2.09 consensus, its sixth straight beat. Yet the stock, at $214.13, has barely moved over the past month, reflecting concern about the company funding its own demand: $108.5B in guarantee obligations, nearly $50 billion invested in frontier AI labs, and gross margin that may bottom at 71% to 72% on memory costs. Guidance points to $108.0B in revenue next quarter, and the $328.72 consensus target across 62 analysts implies about 53.5% upside. The article stresses tracking receivables (DSO rose to 60 days from 45), margins and financing quarter by quarter.
- This Is AMD's Biggest Hurdle in an AI Sell-Off (and No, It's Not Nvidia)
AMD shares have sold off recently, even though the company has benefited from an AI chip shortage because Nvidia cannot meet all demand. The article argues that valuation is a bigger risk than the AI business, with AMD's P/E at 139 and forward P/E at 72, several times higher than Nvidia, Broadcom and Taiwan Semiconductor. If AMD's P/E fell to Nvidia's current level, the stock could lose close to 80% of its value. Still, the valuation is seen as more of a threat to the stock than to the company, since data center AI chips made up 58% of AMD's latest-quarter revenue versus almost 93% for Nvidia. The author reduced AMD holdings for diversification but kept a substantial long-term position.
- Why Did NVIDIA (NVDA) Rise Only 19% While Its Suppliers Did Far Better?
NVIDIA (NVDA) closed at $217.23 on October 15 and has returned 9.52% over six months, trailing the 15.4% return of the Insider Monkey Billionaire Index and 11.4% of the State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust. Over the past year the stock rose 16.48%, while chipmaker Taiwan Semiconductor gained 43.10% and memory supplier Micron gained 360.14%. The article argues the business itself is sound: revenue in the latest quarter rose 105.9% year over year, earnings grew even faster, and operating margin stands at 66.24%. It says NVIDIA was repriced earlier in the cycle than its suppliers, whose earnings the market still treats as temporary. Shares trade at 24.88 times next year's expected earnings, against 28.51 times last year's, because earnings have climbed faster than the share price.

- Chips Are Selling Off and Apple Just Hit a New High. What Splits the AI Trade
Chip stocks sold off last week, with the iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:SOXX) down 13.31%, while Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) rose 2.11% and sits about 1.5% below its 52-week high. The article argues Apple benefits from AI by selling it across more than 2.5B active devices, rather than through heavy infrastructure spending like hyperscalers, and notes revenue grew 16.4% year over year last quarter. The stock trades at $342.96 against a 24/7 Wall St. 12-month target of $397.78 (15.99% upside), with a bull case of $451.56 driven by Siri AI and iCloud Plus upgrades. Risks include memory costs, which Cook called “a 100-year flood,” and gross margin guidance of 47% to 48%; the consensus target of $329.38 sits below the current price. The piece also compares Apple’s P/E with NVIDIA and Microsoft, concluding Apple has less exposure to AI infrastructure spending.

- Anthropic Will Be The Last AI IPO Of 2026, As Industry Collapses
Business Insider founder Henry Blodget noted Anthropic’s month-over-month revenue growth flattened last month, while the article says AI funding is tightening: CoreWeave (NASDAQ: CRWV) is paying up to 13% on new debt, SoftBank has debt problems, and as many as 1,000 communities are trying to block AI data centers. Borrowing for data centers could reach $1 trillion a year through 2030, and shares in AI data center company Elice fell 33% on its IPO launch, the worst opening day for a sizable Korean IPO according to Bloomberg data. The article says Anthropic could be valued at around $2 trillion on IPO day, but under GAAP it is not profitable despite management’s claims, and a trust controlling the board has incomplete disclosures. It concludes Anthropic may list, possibly below $2 trillion, while no other AI firm is likely to IPO this year.
- Amazon to hire over 300,000 holiday workers, up 20% from last year
Amazon plans to hire more than 300,000 workers across its U.S. core operations network for the holiday season, a 20% increase over last year, while overall retail hiring is expected to soften to its lowest level since 2008. Seasonal starting wages average $20 per hour, and full-time core operations staff average nearly $24 per hour. From January 1, 2027, Amazon will extend healthcare benefits to seasonal employees working at least 30 hours per week, with plans starting at $5 per week. The company has committed more than $1.5 billion to wage increases, bringing average full-time compensation including benefits to over $32 per hour. The article frames these moves as a way to shield the supply chain from labor bottlenecks during peak demand.
