Nvidia Becomes World's Most Valuable Company Amid Booming AI Demand
25 Aug
Summary
- Nvidia stock rises over 30% in 2025 so far
- Analysts raise price targets, see continued growth
- Nvidia strikes deal to resume AI chip sales in China
In 2025, Nvidia (NVDA) has cemented its position as the world's most valuable company, with its stock price soaring on the back of surging demand for its AI-powered chips. The chipmaker's rapid rise has caught the attention of Wall Street, with most analysts predicting that its stock still has room to climb.
Ahead of Nvidia's upcoming earnings report, several major investment firms have recently raised their price targets for the company's stock. Baird has bumped its target up to $225 from $195, while Stifel lifted its target to $212 from $202. Other analysts, including those from Morgan Stanley, UBS, and Wedbush, have also increased their price targets in the past week.
These bullish forecasts are largely driven by Nvidia's continued dominance in the AI infrastructure market, which analysts say remains "unchallenged" for the foreseeable future. The company has also struck a revenue-sharing deal with the Trump administration to resume sales of its AI chips to China, a move that is expected to further boost its performance.
Despite some headwinds from export restrictions, Nvidia is widely expected to report another record-breaking quarter, cementing its status as a leader in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.
