🚀 First $4 Trln! Nvidia Heads for 190 – Are You On Board?

The moment has arrived: Nvidia has officially crossed the $4 trillion mark in market cap — a club previously reserved for only the likes of Apple and Microsoft. It’s a stunning run from just $1 trillion a year ago. Now, Citi is calling for $190 per share. But after this much upside, the question isn’t just “what’s next?” It’s “what should I do now?”

Let’s break it down 👇

💡 Why Citi Raised Target

Citi just raised its price target on $NVDA from $180 to $190 — a move driven by confidence in Nvidia’s AI data centre dominance.

Citi sees the TAM (Total Addressable Market) for AI datacentres expanding faster than previously estimated.

They now forecast Nvidia’s FY2028 EPS at $6.37, assuming consistent growth in enterprise AI adoption.

Their valuation implies a 30x P/E multiple, which historically has only been awarded to the highest-growth tech leaders.

But is this realistic… or optimistic?

🧠 Are We in the AI Supercycle – or the Froth Zone?

The bullish camp sees Nvidia as the irreplaceable backbone of the AI infrastructure supercycle. From ChatGPT to Tesla’s Dojo to Meta’s Llama, nearly every AI system today is powered by Nvidia’s H100s and soon, the B100 Blackwell chips.

But some caution flags are waving:

Capex spending from hyperscalers (Amazon, Meta, Microsoft) may plateau after 2025.

Demand elasticity is unknown — will enterprises justify the spend?

Competition is heating up: AMD's MI300X is no joke, and Amazon’s Trainium chips are starting to gain traction.

Still, Nvidia has a huge head start in developer tooling, software stack (CUDA), and ecosystem lock-in.

🧮 Valuation Math – Does $190 Make Sense?

Let’s do the simple CAGR math:

> If Nvidia is at ~$135 today, and reaches $190 in 3 years (FY2028), that’s ~12% CAGR — not eye-popping, but still strong for a mega-cap.

But more importantly:

30x P/E for 2028 assumes steady margin expansion and no macro hiccups.

If EPS underwhelms, a re-rating to 20x–25x could drag the stock down.

Bottom line: This price target bakes in a lot of optimism. But not necessarily irrational exuberance.

🖥️ The Moat Still Matters

Many investors forget — Nvidia isn’t just about chips.

It owns the AI software stack: CUDA, TensorRT, NeMo

Its partners are everywhere: from Dell to AWS to SAP

It’s already launching AI PCs, automotive platforms, and AI factories

Nvidia’s advantage isn’t just hardware. It’s ecosystem dominance. Think of it as Apple + TSMC + AWS, rolled into one.

💰 Institutions Are Buying (But So Are Retail Traders)

Let’s talk demand:

Nvidia is now the top holding in multiple ETFs, including $SOXX and $BOTZ.

Big Tech is doubling down on Nvidia infrastructure — including Apple reportedly exploring LLMs.

But here’s the retail dilemma:

“I bought at $80 — should I take profit now?”

“I missed everything — is it too late to join at $4T?”

Momentum remains strong, but so does the temptation to lock in gains. Remember: the bigger the cap, the harder the climb.

📊 My Strategy as a Retail Investor

Personally?

I’m holding core Nvidia shares in my long-term portfolio.

But I’m using options to hedge and occasionally take advantage of volatility.

I’m watching key levels like $140 support and $150 resistance — a clean breakout with volume could open up Citi’s $190 roadmap.

Nvidia isn’t cheap — but that’s never been the point. This stock is a conviction trade in the future of compute. And right now, it still owns that future.

📣 Your Turn — What’s the Play?

Retail fam — you’ve seen Nvidia go from $500B to $4T in 18 months. So now the real question is:

Do you believe in another doubling — or do you think the easy gains are gone?

Would you add on a dip — or is $190 too rich even for AI’s king?

Where would you rather put $10K today: Nvidia, Super Micro, or cash?

Let’s compare ideas. Sound off below 👇

🧠 Final Takeaway:

At $4 trillion, Nvidia isn’t just a chipmaker — it’s a national asset, an innovation engine, and the biggest AI leverage trade in the world. Whether you chase it, hedge it, or fade it… you can’t ignore it.

And if Citi’s right — $190 may not be the end. It might just be a checkpoint.
