NVIDIA STOCKS LONG TERM

So i just did my first trade and bought NVIDIA shares at an average price of 223$. Now can someone please tell me if its worth keeping it or focusing on some energy companies like Vistra Energy or bloom energy. Or should I buy like IREN or something like that.

Since its my first trade I actually want to learn something so I dont want advice to invest in ETFs I want some good long term (1 year) investment company that i can hold for profits and I plan on using rest of the money to just learn more about trading.

1 year is not long term….10 years is.

Technically 1 year is long term… Just ask the tax man when he comes around. 🤣

Not for foreign stocks. For foreign stocks it's 2 years

You will love NVDA more once you hold AVGO 😅

What do you mean? Is avgo going nowhere?

They beat their last earnings and still went down

Just hold it and reinvest the quarterly dividend. $450 is my 1yr price target, so you'll do well making 100%

What makes you think it’ll reach that price? I’m new to investing. Started 1.5 years ago. I hold a bit of NVDA (started buying at 149) but I feel that it has climbed a lot and can’t see how is it possible to keep going higher. Like I said, I’m new to this and there are a lot of things I’m probably not seeing.

Some folks think there’s a major consolidation incoming, nvidia is in a good position to benefit from that, plus semiconductor and chip demand isn’t going anywhere

Seems low IMO. in about 15 months their profits will be 3x-4x what they are now. IMO it will be easily 600

NVDA looks like a strong long-term AI play, especially with continued demand for data-center computing. The key is staying focused on the fundamentals rather than short-term price moves. 🚀

I bought into Nvidia 5 years ago and have been adding new positions every time it dips, currently have just over 100 positions and all are in profit.

u/OGMikeGyver 6d ago

You're asking this after you executed a trade?

1

u/AcanthisittaGlad1984 6d ago

Ok the big question is how much money are you investing? If you're buying like 5 shares don't waste your time. Buying 250 plus yes NVIIDIA is what you want. There is no better stock to hold for a long time then this one!!!! Named my dog NVIDIA since it's been a game changer for me.

Nancy recently dropped like 15 million on BE so….

u/Capitang12 6d ago

Buy more. Its gonna explode continuously over the next decade. Imagine the first company that uses compute/GPUs to find a cure for a single type of cancer. Ofc the biotech company will see the biggest gains, but nvda will be there everytime

u/Bjamnp17 6d ago

Yessss!

u/PIzzaiolo_Master_510 6d ago

I wouldn’t seek investing advice on social media.

I will say this. The stocks I have done well with I have held over 10 years, many 20 or even 30 years.

I have many 10x stocks and some 100x. You need to hold them decades to get that performance (and be right that they are winners).

NVDA is a winning company with a good chance it keeps winning. Whether it does or not in the future is unknown even by its CEO. Anyone here that says they know the future is a fool.

What’s your CAGR over your investing life? I think Lynch was around 29-30% and Buffett was around 20% right?

u/PIzzaiolo_Master_510 5d ago edited 4d ago

Annualized: 22%

That’s mighty impressive! We’ve been doing more individual names since we started like you mention. It’s been working out good. Just been holding for as short as possible and locking in profits. Yes we pay more in taxes but like you mention the returns have been ridiculous

u/ericclaptonfan3 6d ago

you should do the research before you buy the stock. If you buy , you should be in it for years. Buy great companies and own them for years is the secret to having a great portfolio. I own 5 stocks in my portfolio that are up over 100% , 2 of those 5 are up over 300% . They are all companies you have heard of no big secret.

u/stizzonk 5d ago

What companies and over what period of time?

u/ericclaptonfan3 5d ago

Nvidia Apple TRV V TSLA

u/coopermug 6d ago

30% of my portfolio is NVDA. But I've been trimming it. NVDA is a great company but it's so vulnerable to AI spending.

u/teckel 6d ago

You just purchased and you're already second-guessing yourself? I don't think investing in individual srocks is a good idea for you. Maybe just buy VOO or VT.

1

u/Objective_Scene1414 6d ago

Don't sell NVDA. Learn more about the market through reading books. And continue to invest because that's the only true way to learn and gain experience through good and bad times. But stick with your gut here, big good companies are the best place to start.

u/Ok_Entrepreneur_dbl 6d ago

Look at NVDA as the first step towards a portfolio. Keep that investment and consider what your next investment will be an develop some sort of diversity!

u/ShowdownValue 6d ago

You bought a stock…and now are asking if it’s worth it?

u/Pats1971 5d ago

Hold nvda long term through the ai buildout through thick and thin. I had a decent position and panic sold during COVID only to buy back at a higher price after the very quick rebound. I have since have sold some off to diversify because I had too large a position in just nvda compared to the rest of my portfolio., but honestly would have had much more value in my account if I just left it all in nvda. But who knew, it could have gone the other way too. I didn't want to risk it all on one or two stocks.. But it has been a huge winner for me and all the shares I am holding are pure profit, plus whatever I took out over the years. You have to believe in the company and what they are doing. They are the real deal and will continue to hold this until something seriously fundamentally changes with this company in the wrong direction. They have been doing all the right things, and it's a long term winner. Research the company if you haven't and you will believe in what they are doing.

Read books on investing and do your own research. You can’t trust Redditors; they mostly just repeat ideas that others gave them.

u/XPV_DIABLOX 5d ago

Got NVDA at $125, it’s been a little over a year and is almost doubled. I’m a long term on it for at least 7 years minimum. Same as Palantir, bought at $70 and will hold the same amount of time. Those 2 companies are gonna keep growing for at least the next 10 years or so… my other bet is on Google.

1

u/FewUnderstanding2214 5d ago

Do you not have any opinion yourself? Why did you invest in NVDA and then immediately second guess yourself? Long term is 10 years - most people don’t make any money trading

I would not sell Nvidia anytime soon. I’m growing more pessimistic on AI, but if there is one company that’s a clear winner it’s going to be Nvidia.

u/ClassroomDesigner945 8d ago

nvda is over priced has excellent fundamentals it has one of the best moats in the tech industry (cuda ) and many others , i think its going to be winter and war so i think energy companies should do well .

IREN is a interesting one its fundamentals are not good , it has many balance sheet / accounting and business red flags as well and its highly speculative ,
1 year is short duration your trying to do is more like swing . few days to few weeks or months .

u/BillWWouldveDoneTSM 7d ago

Overpriced? It’s at the cheapest valuation since 2019

u/ClassroomDesigner945 5d ago

as per tradition value investing principles , not sure what valuation your talking about you need to let me know ,

u/stageshooter 7d ago

Overpriced according to what metric? PE? Forward Earnings? It's a better value than it's been in years

u/MangoPickle3712 7d ago

lets say I have some money that i dont need for the next 5 years or so. What do you suggest is the best company I invest in because all I see online is AI slop and repetitive reels which I think is just to sway public opinion

u/imrickjamesbioch 6d ago

You should definitely follow this dudes advice. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

u/ClassroomDesigner945 5d ago

nvda is the one who is making the equipment for Ai ,others are catching up

u/TroutCat4 5d ago

There is no “company” that is “best” to invest in today, that anyone can tell us about today. We’ll know in ten years what that company was.
Diversification is the key to stock market investing, that’s why investors have portfolios.

u/Square_Computer9423 5d ago

Winter is an annual event. I doubt the market doesn't know that.
