The aggressive buying spree coincides with a bold prediction from a prominent tech analyst who sees the company's market capitalization soaring to $5 trillion. _Check out NVDA’s stock price here._ ## **Billionaires Load Up On Nvidia Stock** According to the second quarter 13F filings, some of the biggest names in hedge funds loaded up on Nvidia shares. **Ken Griffin** of Citadel Advisors acquired 6.1 million shares, boosting his firm’s position by 922%. Appaloosa's **David Tepper** increased his stake by 483% with the purchase of 1.4 million shares, while **Philippe Laffont** of Coatue Management added 2.9 million shares. These moves are noteworthy given the managers’ track records of outperforming the S&P 500. ## **Nvidia Is ‘Going To $5 Trillion’** Wedbush analyst Dan Ives echoes this institutional bullishness; he believes the company’s fundamentals are stronger than perceived and that demand for its AI chips remains immense. “I think it's noise… And I think this is a stock going to $5 trillion," Ives stated, viewing the company’s financial results as a “validation point” for the ongoing AI trade. Ives’s projection, while optimistic, is not the most bullish on Wall Street. Technology analyst **Beth Kindig** of the I/O Fund believes Nvidia will become a $10 trillion company by 2030, citing its rapid product roadmap and the "impenetrable moat" created by its CUDA software platform. ## **The Bear Case: An AI Bubble?** However, a note of caution persists among some experts. Alex Tsepaev of B2PRIME Group acknowledged Nvidia’s near-term strength but warned of the underlying risk if the AI boom doesn’t fulfill its revolutionary promise. “If AI turns out to be just a bubble, it can be a collapse for the whole market, and Nvidia in particular,” Tsepaev cautioned, highlighting a potential vulnerability in the chipmaker’s meteoric rise. ## **Price Action** Shares of NVDA fell 0.25% to end at $185.04 per share on Tuesday, and further fell by 0.029% in after-hours. It has risen 33.79% year-to-date and 39.24% over the past year. **Benzinga's Edge Stock Rankings** indicate that NVDA maintains a stronger price trend in the short, medium, and long terms. However, the stock's value ranking is relatively poor. Additional performance details are available here. The **SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust** (NYSE:SPY) and **Invesco QQQ Trust ETF** (NASDAQ:QQQ), which track the S&P 500 index and Nasdaq 100 index, respectively, fell on Tuesday. The SPY was down 0.37% at $669.12, while the QQQ declined 0.53% to $604.51, according to Benzinga Pro data. - **Nvidia’s Sky-High AI Ambitions Under Fire: Goldman Sachs Flags ‘Circular Revenue’ Risk As Wall Street Questions ‘Jensen’s Math’** _**Disclaimer:** This content was partially produced with the help of AI tools and was reviewed and published by Benzinga editors._ _Photo courtesy: Shutterstock_ ### Related Stocks - [NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDA.US.md) - [GraniteShares 2x Long NVDA Daily ETF (NVDL.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDL.US.md) - [XL2CSOPNVDA (07788.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07788.HK.md) - [XI2CSOPNVDA (07388.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07388.HK.md) - [YieldMax NVDA Option Income Strategy ETF (NVDY.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDY.US.md) - [Direxion Daily NVDA Bear 1X ETF (NVDD.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDD.US.md) - [T-REX 2X Long NVIDIA Daily Target ETF (NVDX.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDX.US.md) - [T-REX 2X Inverse NVIDIA Daily Target ETF (NVDQ.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDQ.US.md) - [Direxion Daily Semicondct Bull 3X ETF (SOXL.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SOXL.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Why Is Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) Rising Today, 3/31/26?](https://longbridge.com/en/news/281211233.md) - [Phancy Group Narrows Loss in 2025](https://longbridge.com/en/news/281018345.md) - [TSMC's Supply Squeeze Through 2028 Could Be This Chipmaker's Big Break As AI Demand From Nvidia, Apple Surges](https://longbridge.com/en/news/281141442.md) - [Why Nvidia And Tesla Are Suddenly Knocking On Samsung's Door](https://longbridge.com/en/news/280999748.md) - [Nvidia Just Announced Hardware for AI Data Centers in Space.
