Nvidia (NVDA) Extends $1 Trillion Rally as AI Optimism Grows
Nvidia (NVDA, Financials) surged over 45% from its April low, adding $1 trillion in value and closing in on Microsoft's (MSFT, Financials) spot as the world's most valuable company, according to Bloomberg. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 4 Warning Signs with NVDA. Despite the sharp rally, Nvidia trades at about 29 times projected earnings over the next 12 months below its 10-year average of 34 times. The stock's price-to-earnings-to-growth ratio is under 0.9, the lowest among major tech peers, signaling potential undervaluation. Bloomberg data shows analysts remain bullish, with 69 of 78 rating the stock a buy and only one issuing a sell. The average price target implies a further 24% upside. Investors have shaken off early-year concerns tied to U.S.-China tensions and semiconductor sales restrictions. Bloomberg reported Nvidia lost $2.5 billion in Q1 sales from a China chip ban and expects an $8 billion hit in Q2, but demand elsewhere appears strong. U.S. tech giants including Microsoft, Amazon (AMZN, Financials), Alphabet (GOOG, Financials) and Meta Meta Platforms (META, Financials) are projected to spend $330 billion on AI infrastructure in 2026, up 6% from 2025, helping sustain Nvidia's growth momentum. Still, trade exposure lingers. China contributed 13% of Nvidia's revenue in Q1. With President Trump's administration threatening broader tech restrictions, Nvidia could face further headwinds. CEO Jensen Huang said no new China-focused products are planned for now, but the company is monitoring the policy environment. Nvidia's relatively low institutional ownership 74% of long-only funds, compared with 91% for Microsoft leaves room for additional buying pressure. Analysts like Samuel Rines of WisdomTree argue Nvidia's earnings multiple could rise into the high 30s or low 40s as AI capex accelerates. Investors will continue to watch for signals from Washington on trade, as well as ongoing data center demand trends. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.

Giannis Antetokounmpo Could Lose Key Teammate to West Contender
Giannis Antetokounmpo Could Lose Key Teammate to West Contender originally appeared on Athlon Sports. While Giannis Antetokounmpo's future with the Milwaukee Bucks remains a huge question mark, the Greek player could receive bad news from a Western Conference contender. Advertisement For the past four years, the Bucks tried to emulate the success they had in 2021 and win another NBA championship, but multiple setbacks, especially injuries, ruined their plans to add more silverware to their cabinet. Antetokounmpo remains one of the best players in the NBA, finishing no lower than fourth in the MVP voting after he won back-to-back awards in 2019 and 2020. After another first-round playoff exit loss, his future with the Wisconsin franchise has become a recurrent topic around the association. He's been linked with moves to the Miami Heat, Golden State Warriors, New York Knicks and Toronto Raptors, among others, but nothing has materialized so far. Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (34).Mark J. Rebilas-Imagn Images The Houston Rockets, another team interested in Antetokounmpo's services, could hit him with terrible news if they can't retain Steven Adams. According to Kelly Iko of The Athletic, if Adams leaves the Texas franchise, the Rockets would put their attention on Brook Lopez. Advertisement "If Adams leaves, team sources said the Rockets could reignite their interest in Brook Lopez. The 37-year-old, who averaged 13.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.9 blocks per game shooting 37 percent from 3 in Milwaukee last season, was previously a target for Houston and would theoretically be a fit, given his two-way production and health (played 237 games over the last three seasons). "Houston is also anticipating conversations with Boston's front office, with the assumption that the Celtics, who are in salary-reduction mode, will canvass the league looking to offload contracts." Even when Khris Middleton was still a member of the Bucks, Lopez was the team's third-best player behind Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard. The veteran center was key to his team's plans with his ability to stretch the floor and attack the basket. The Rockets are one of the most intriguing teams in the league, who are fresh off a second-seeded finish in the 2024-25 NBA season. They have a solid combination of youth and experience, which Lopez could fit into seamlessly. Advertisement Antetokounmpo's future remains a mystery, but this potential move could open the door for new alternatives for the big man.

Who will Knicks tap to replace Tom Thibodeau? Nine names to know
Who will Knicks tap to replace Tom Thibodeau? Nine names to know Show Caption Hide Caption New York Knicks move on from Tom Thibodeau and here's why USA TODAY Sports' Lorenzo Reyes explains why the Knicks chose to move on from head coach Tom Thibodeau after years of improving franchise. Sports Pulse The New York Knicks fired head coach Tom Thibodeau on Tuesday, June 3, three days after the team lost to the Indiana Pacers in the Eastern Conference finals, despite his leading the team to their deepest run in 25 years. During the next few weeks, fans and players alike will talking about who will replace him. The move comes a little less than one year since the Knicks had signed Thibodeau to a three-year contract extension that was supposed to keep him with the franchise through the 2027-28 season. Conventionally speaking, teams would like to have a head coach in place by the time the NBA Draft arrives June 25. The team won't be much of a player in the draft, as they don't have a first-round pick and their second-round pick is No. 50 overall. MORE: Knicks fire coach Tom Thibodeau following loss in Eastern Conference finals MORE: Ben Stiller, NBA react to surprising move The roster is mostly intact and signed for next year, with the only unrestricted free agents being reserves Precious Achiuwa and Landry Shamet. There will be a number of candidates whom the team could go after, starting with one who used to be on their bench. Johnnie Bryant Bryant was an associate head coach with the Cleveland Cavaliers last season and spent four years with the Knicks under Thibodeau. The 39-year-old started his coaching career in 2012 with the Utah Jazz as a player development assistant before being promoted to assistant head coach two years later. Bryant is reportedly a candidate for the open Phoenix Suns job. Jordan Ott Another hot Cavaliers assistant is Ott, and he is also a finalist for the Suns job. Under the tutelage of head coach Kenny Atkinson, who won the NBA Coach of the Year award, Ott helped a Cleveland team that had the league's top offensive rating and No. 8 defensive rating, led by Defensive Player of the Year, Evan Mobley. Michael Malone The no-nonsense Malone led the Denver Nuggets to the title in 2023, but was fired just a week before the playoffs in a move that stunned the league. Malone stresses defense, and the Knicks had glaring deficiencies at times when Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns were not on the floor, but despite that, New York had a 113.3 defensive rating in the regular season, good for fifth in the league. Taylor Jenkins Another head coach who was unceremoniously given the boot before the playoffs, Jenkins led Memphis to a 44-29 record and the fifth seed in the Western Conference. He is the franchise leader in wins with 250. Memphis made the play-in tournament and was subsequently swept in four games by the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder this season. Mike Brown Knicks fans are certainly familiar with Brown as he was a possible head coach candidate with the team twice in the past 10 years. Brown is a two-time NBA Coach of the Year, and was fired by the Sacramento Kings in December after the Kings got off to a 13–18 start. Mike Budenholzer Budenholzer was just let go by the Phoenix Suns after one season, but the two-time Coach of the Year has championship experience, leading the Milwaukee Bucks to a title in 2021. He has coached in the conference finals three times, twice with the Bucks and once with the Atlanta Hawks. Terry Stotts Stotts, an assistant for Golden State, knows stars and knows offense – he coached Damian Lillard in Portland where Stotts regularly produced top-10 offenses. Stotts was 402-318 in nine seasons with the Trail Blazers, including three 50-win campaigns. He led them to the Western Conference finals in 2019. Adrian Griffin Griffin had a short run as head coach of the Milwaukee Bucks and was 30-13 when the Bucks fired him midway through the 2023-24 season. The former NBA player and longtime NBA assistant is expected to get another chance with an NBA team. Darvin Ham Ham lasted two seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers, going to the conference finals in 2023 and losing in the first round last season. Ham, who spent several seasons as an assistant for Budenholzer in Atlanta and Milwaukee, returned to the Bucks this season as an assistant for Doc Rivers. Wild cards
