Another day, another analyst slapping a 'buy' rating on tech's golden child—because clearly, the market needed more confirmation.

Nvidia's relentless AI dominance and backroom handshakes with industry titans have analysts reaching for superlatives. One heavyweight just doubled down, calling it the 'must-own' play of the decade.

Meanwhile, hedge funds quietly rotate out of their positions—but hey, who needs liquidity when you've got hype?

Recently, Bank of America analyst Vivek Arya attended investor events in San Francisco, including a private dinner and a keynote session with Nvidia’s leadership team. He noted a “very positive” tone on demand and ongoing customer interest spanning cloud and enterprise sectors. He said that Nvidia remains a “,” well positioned to benefit from the “ongoing AI tide.”

Following these meetings, the 5-star analyst reiterated his Buy rating on Nvidia and maintained a $180 price target. Importantly, he noted that the company addressed three of the most critical investor concerns that have restrained the stock over the past year:

  • Blackwell Rack Ramp and Execution: Arya noted that Nvidia’s rollout of the Blackwell architecture is progressing well. The GB200 NVL rack-scale systems are now “fully ramping,” contributing about 70% of compute sales in the latest quarter. Production of the follow-on Blackwell Ultra (GB300) is set to begin in Q2, while Rubin and Feynman remain on track, keeping Nvidia’s annual release cadence intact. Management also expects smooth transitions across generations with “limited associated ramp-up costs,” supported by its growing rack-scale experience.

  • AI Diffusion and Sovereign Demand: The analyst pointed to sovereign AI as a promising new growth vector, especially following the recent lifting of AI Diffusion export rules. Management believes sovereign governments and their partners—such as CSPs and neoclouds—will increasingly build their own foundational and frontier models, expanding Nvidia’s addressable market beyond traditional hyperscalers.

  • China AI Shipments Fully De-Risked: Addressing one of the more persistent investor concerns, Arya emphasized that Nvidia now considers its China exposure “fully de-risked” following the H20 export restrictions and associated write-offs. Management confirmed that no China-related sales are included in current data center forecasts, meaning any future sales into the $50 billion China AI TAM would be incremental upside.
  • What Is a Good Price for NVDA?

    Turning to Wall Street, analysts have a Strong Buy consensus rating on NVDA stock based on 36 Buys, four Holds, and one Sell assigned in the past three months, as indicated by the graphic below. Furthermore, the average NVDA price target of $171.62 per share implies 24.92% upside potential.
