Can Nvidia Stock Reach $200 This Year?
Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) stock is back in the market's good graces after plunging earlier this year. Despite reassurances from management, investors were worried about the company's future when China's DeepSeek chatbot came out and further concerned about impact of new tariffs. As Nvidia continues to report stellar earnings results and upgrade its technology amid a pause on many of the new tariffs, investors are feeling more love toward Nvidia stock. As of this writing, Nvidia stock trades just north of $150, and it's back to beating the market. Can it reach $200 before the end of the year? Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » AI is a huge opportunity Nvidia makes the semiconductor chips necessary to drive generative artificial intelligence (AI), or the apps that "think" and create. There are two basic stages to that process: training and inference. The large-language models that run the data and produce output need a tremendous amount of power for these processes, training on millions of data points that are constantly updated and running through tons of algorithms to create accurate content and images. Nvidia's chips make that happen. Since so many tech companies want to use generative AI in their operations today, Nvidia's chips are in great demand. Although there are alternatives, Nvidia has between 70% and 95% of the market, depending on who you ask. Even at the lower end, that's a huge lead over the competition. As the gold standard, Nvidia is relied upon by the biggest companies like Microsoft and Amazon as a partner. This is where the greatest opportunity is. Amazon, for one, has its own line of budget options for smaller companies, but the large, brand-name clients it services need Nvidia's powerful chips. The demand is only expected to increase. According to Statista, the AI opportunity is expected to increase at a compound annual growth rate of 26.6% over the next five years, reaching $1 trillion. A huge portion of that is likely to go to Nvidia. Management continues to launch new products that can handle higher data loads, making them more attractive to clients. Its Blackwell technology, which launched last year to replace the Hopper architecture, is already moving into Blackwell Ultra, and management is planning to release a new range of chips next year under the Rubin name. Nvidia is unstoppable In the near term, Nvidia continues to report phenomenal results despite serious setbacks. U.S. regulations mean it can't ship its best chips to China, stymying progress in that market, and Nvidia took a hit to its earnings in the fiscal 2026 first quarter (ended April 27) related to a charge for orders it couldn't fulfill. Yet the first-quarter results were outstanding. Revenue increased 69% year over year, and earnings per share (EPS) were up from $0.60 last year to $0.76 this year, inclusive of the one-time charge. Management is guiding for growth to decelerate in the second quarter but remain high at a 50% increase year over year. Wall Street is looking for EPS of $1, up from $0.68 last year. For the full year, Wall Street is expecting $200 billion in revenue and $4.29 in EPS, up from $130 billion (a 54% increase) and $2.99 (a 43% increase) over last year. The valuation can handle it If the valuation remains constant, Nvidia stock will rise along with its earnings. If it rises 54% from where it started out this year, it will reach $212. If it rises 43%, it will reach $197. If nothing much changes and Nvidia meets Wall Street's expectations, the stock should surpass $200 by the end of the year. However, Nvidia tends to beat expectations. If that happens, it could rise further. High-growth stocks can also carry higher valuations. If Nvidia's valuation rises, the price could also rise further. At the current price, Nvidia stock trades at a price-to-earnings ratio of 50 and a price-to-sales ratio of 26. Those aren't cheap numbers, but they're pretty reasonable for Nvidia's growth. The likelihood is that Nvidia hits at least $200 before the end of the year, or shoots 27% higher than the price at the time of this writing. Should you invest $1,000 in Nvidia right now? Before you buy stock in Nvidia, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Nvidia wasn't one of them.

Is Tesla Still the EV King?
Tesla TSLA has been a polarizing stock over the last decade, delivering massive gains for investors as we increasingly shift toward EVs. And in 2025, shares have been volatile, down 25% overall with big price swings. Notably, the stock currently sports an unfavorable Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), with analysts revising their EPS expectations negatively across the board in a big way over recent months. The downward revisions paint a challenging picture for TSLA's share performance in the near term, and investors can expect a heightened level of volatility here given the stock's historical nature. With that said, let's take a closer look at its latest set of quarterly results and a big competitor, Rivian Automotive RIVN. Tesla Faces Sales Decline Tesla reported Q1 revenue of $19.3 billion and adjusted EPS of $0.27 in its latest release, reflecting year-over-year declines of 9% and 50%, respectively. Still, results from Tesla's Energy Generation & Storage segment reflected some positivity, with sales climbing 67% year-over-year to $2.7 billion. Below is a chart illustrating the company's sales on a quarterly basis. Concerning EV production/deliveries, Tesla delivered roughly 337k EVs and produced nearly 363k throughout the period. While the EV numbers are important, another critical aspect of the release was the margin picture, with the company's gross margin contracting to 16.3% vs. a 17.4% print in the same period last year. Please note that the margins chart below is calculated on a trailing twelve-month basis. The crunched profitability has been a big headwind for the stock, regularly dictating post-earnings price movements as of late. Rivian Sees Upward EPS Revisions Rivian shares have been much stronger in 2025 so far, gaining roughly 2% compared to Tesla's 25% decline. Its latest set of quarterly results was primarily positive, with gross profit of $206 million reflecting a quarterly record. Notably, the company produced roughly 14.6k vehicles throughout the period, delivering 8.6k. While the numbers are miniscule compared to that of Tesla, the results remained in-line with management's previous guidance, a critical hurdle to clear for any EV player. It's worth noting here that while Rivian has 100% US vehicle manufacturing and sources most materials (excluding cells) in the US, it's still not immune to the impacts of the current global trade and economic environment. The company revised its current-year guidance concerning vehicle deliveries as a result, now expecting FY25 deliveries in a range of 40-60k. The earnings outlook for Rivian remains bullish, with the current Zacks Consensus EPS estimate of -$2.49 up 14% over the last several months. The company has enjoyed positive revisions across nearly all timeframes, as shown below. Putting Everything Together Tesla TSLA shares have been big-time winners over the past decade for many, but recent performance has undoubtedly left a sour taste in many mouths. The recent profitability crunch and slowing sales growth are driving forces behind the stock's poor performance, with competition also quickly becoming fierce. Rivian RIVN shares have been much stronger in 2025, with the company's EPS outlook much more favorable. Given Tesla's current Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell) rating, investors would be better off waiting on positive EPS revisions, which would signal a bullish turnaround in sentiment.

What's really in Trump's ‘beautiful' bill?
The One Big, Beautiful Bill Act squeaked through the U.S. Senate by a single vote Tuesday – requiring Vice-President JD Vance to break the tie – bringing the central legislation of President Donald Trump's agenda one step closer to meeting his self-imposed July 4 deadline for passage. The bill would fund mass deportations and tax cuts by taking away health coverage and food stamps from millions of low-income Americans, ending programs to fight climate change, and racking up debt. The Senate version of the prospective law made some changes compared to the earlier legislation passed by the House of Representatives, which means the two chambers must hash out their differences before sending a final version to the White House. With all Democrats vehemently opposed and the Republicans holding only narrow majorities in both houses, the next two days are almost certain to see some down-to-the-wire legislative manoeuvring. Here is what is in the bill. Deportations, the wall and the military The bill would pay for the centrepiece of Mr. Trump's political program by allocating nearly US$30-billion to his effort to round up and deport immigrants and US$46.5-billion to continue construction of the wall on the U.S. border with Mexico. The President is aiming to deport all 11 million people who are in the country without legal status as well as millions more who came legally under immigration programs that he is cancelling. The White House has ordered Immigration and Customs Enforcement to step up deportations with the goal of arresting 3,000 people per day. This has led agents to raid farms, restaurants, factories, warehouses and other workplaces. The bill would also add US$153-billion in military spending, including US$25-billion to start Mr. Trump's promised 'Golden Dome' missile defence system, which Canada is negotiating to join. The spend on taxes The legislation contains a long list of tax changes. At the centre are measures that would make permanent a series of temporary tax cuts Congress passed during Mr. Trump's first term. These include cuts to corporate tax rates, personal income tax rates, a larger standard deduction and a cut to taxes on pass-through entities such as limited liability companies. In addition, the bill would add a new tax deduction of up to US$25,000 for tips and US$12,500 for overtime pay until 2028, increase the child tax credit from US$2,000 to $2,200, with later adjustments for inflation, and raise the cap on the deduction for state and local taxes to US$40,000 from US$10,000. According to modelling by the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, Mr. Trump's alma mater, 70 per cent of the benefits of the tax cuts would flow to the top 10 per cent of income earners. Cutting Medicaid, Obamacare and food stamps To partially offset the cost of the tax cuts, the bill would cut over US$1.3-trillion in spending from the country's social safety net, the largest such reduction in more than a generation. To save US$930-billion, for instance, it envisions adding additional red tape for people applying for Medicaid, a government program that pays for health care for the poorest Americans. In theory, the new rules are designed to press people on Medicaid who are not currently working to find a job or go back to school. In practice, they will likely take away health care from a range of low-income Americans who do not comply with the new paperwork requirements. The bill would also make cuts to Medicare – the program that provides health care to senior citizens and younger people with certain disabilities – and not renew some subsidies for people buying private insurance through the Obamacare system. According to an estimate by the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office, these measures combined would take health insurance away from nearly 12 million Americans. Meanwhile, 4.7 million people would lose access to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance (SNAP), colloquially known as food stamps, because of a US$285-billion cut, according to the CBO. Ending climate policy In a partial rollback of former president Joe Biden's signature climate policies, the legislation ends US$488-billion in tax credits for electric vehicles and subsidies for new wind and solar projects that come online after 2027. On the flip side, it offers a subsidy for some coal production. What happens now Even with all of these cuts, the bill would still require a US$3.3-trillion increase in government borrowing and therefore also raises the country's debt ceiling by US$5-trillion. And this is why, despite its centrality to Mr. Trump's agenda, the legislation remains so contentious within his own party. On one side, moderates are balking at the cuts to social spending. On the other, deficit hawks argue the plan is far too expensive. Republican North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis voted against the bill over its Medicaid cuts, as did moderate Mainer Susan Collins. Libertarian Kentuckian Rand Paul opposed it for raising the debt ceiling. Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski, the final, key vote for the bill, came around after party leaders added money to a rural hospital fund and softened the SNAP cuts for her state. Now, a joint legislative committee will try to merge the Senate and House versions of the bill in a way that the slim majorities in both houses can live with. The Senate, for instance, rewrote a Medicaid tax provision in a way that could put more of the burden of paying for the program onto state governments, something House moderates are likely to be unhappy with. The upper chamber also passed a higher debt-ceiling increase, however, risking the support of the few remaining fiscal conservatives in Congress. Still, Mr. Trump holds an iron grip over his party. He is certain to be squeezing as hard as possible to fulfill his goal of signing the bill by Independence Day on Friday.
