Goldman Sachs Sets the Bar for Nvidia Stock Ahead of Earnings
Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock has left its early-year slump firmly behind, with shares now regularly setting new highs. Investor confidence has rebounded after the company navigated past headwinds, including the now-reversed export restrictions on AI chips to China that had threatened its access to the Chinese market. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. With the chip giant slated to report fiscal second quarter (July quarter) results on August 27, Goldman Sachs analyst James Schneider notes that sentiment among investors is overwhelmingly bullish heading into the print. 'We believe expectations are high and investors we have spoken with are almost universally long heading into the print – which we think raises the degree of difficulty for 2H commentary and guidance,' the analyst said. Even so, Schneider is looking for a 'clean beat-and-raise quarter,' saying the stock's reaction will likely hinge on how much the guidance tops expectations and whether the China sales situation factors in. To that end, the analyst has boosted his Datacenter segment revenue forecasts by about 8% on average, citing stronger-than-expected hyperscaler CapEx and intra-quarter data that points to robust AI demand. His projections for FY2Q and FY3Q – $41.9 billion and $51.5 billion, respectively – are 2% and 8% above consensus, and he sees the resumption of China sales potentially adding another ~$20 billion in revenue and $0.40 in EPS by FY27. From here, Schneider sees three main factors that could sway the stock in the near term: the pace of the Blackwell ramp (particularly outside China), any new detail on how China sales could influence margins, and the trajectory of gross margins in the second half, especially with Nvidia set to benefit from roughly $2.5 billion in previously reserved H20 inventory. Looking further out, the analyst draws a parallel to prior years, anticipating that the market's focus in the latter part of 2025 will gradually shift from 'How good can 2026 be?' to 'What's the direction of travel in 2027?' With his FY27 EPS estimate at $6.75, Schneider believes much of the 2026 upside is already reflected in the stock, making the next wave of growth signals critical. For now, Schneider is sticking with a Buy rating on Nvidia shares and raising his price target from $185 to $200, suggesting a potential 9.5% upside from current levels. (To watch Schneider's track record, click here) That Buy rating is echoed by 33 other analysts, with only 3 Holds and 1 Sell rating tempering the Strong Buy consensus. However, the $186.24 average target suggests the shares will stay rangebound for the time being. Considering the discrepancy, watch out for either more price target hikes or rating downgrades in the coming months.

Up 130%, is this popular S&P 500 stock massively overvalued?
The S&P 500's experienced a fairly modest period of growth so far in 2025, at least compared to historical norms. And yet there are still plenty of US stocks achieving gargantuan returns, especially in the artificial intelligence (AI) tech space. And perhaps the most popular example of this is Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:PLTR). Excitement surrounding the firm's Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP), and its ability to help organisations leverage data analytics, has generated extraordinary momentum. Subsequently, shareholders have seen their investment grow a jaw-dropping 130% since the start of the year, and 1,780% since 2020! But with so much growth now under its belt, could investor hype and excitement push this US stock too close to the sun? Why are Palantir shares flying? Following its latest quarterly results, Palantir's continued to defy expectations with record-breaking revenue and profit growth. In fact, during the second quarter, the firm posted over $1bn in sales – a milestone that arrived much faster than analysts were expecting. The firm's benefiting from strong AI demand among its corporate customers. But its core governmental revenue streams are also expanding at an impressive pace. Most recently, the company secured a new $10bn contract with the US Army as well as a $30m deal with the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. All of this ongoing success led to management hiking its full-year revenue projections from $3.9bn to $4.15bn. And looking to the third quarter, the company appears to be on track to deliver even more growth, with revenue expected to climb 50% higher. With all this in mind, it's easy to see why investors are so excited. But after such strong price appreciation in a relatively short space of time, questions are starting to arise about Palantir's valuation. A ticking timebomb? When a business delivers such explosive growth, it's normal to see its shares priced at a premium. Palantir's no exception. And its premium's evident when looking at several valuation multiples. On a forward price-to-earnings ratio basis, the stock trades at a massive 312, while the price-to-sales ratio stands at a staggering 127. For reference, these numbers have historically sat closer to 16 and 3 respectively, for the S&P 500. As such, the market seems to be baking in enormous growth expectations into Palantir's valuation. And consequently, if those returns fail to materialise, shareholders could have to endure horrendous volatility. So far, Palantir's keeping up with its explosive growth promises. But like all businesses, it's not immune to disruption. Even as management diversifies the business with commercial customers, the bulk of income continues to stem from government contracts. And that makes the company susceptible to budget cuts or political shifts. What's more, while Palantir's seen as an AI leader today, its growing list of competitors could put that to the test in the future. Microsoft, AWS, and Google are all deploying their own AI solutions. And with much stronger pre-existing relationships with commercial customers, they may impede Palantir's access to this critical future growth market. Personally, I think Palantir's a phenomenal business with a clearly powerful product. But as a stock, the valuation's just too rich for my tastes.
