$NVIDIA(NVDA.US)

Context:

NVIDIA reports earnings next week, and it’s the event I’m watching most closely.

As an NVDA shareholder, I’m less focused on guessing the post earnings price move and more interested in whether the results and outlook can continue to support the market’s high expectations.

With the VIX around 15, sentiment is relatively optimistic, while the 10 year Treasury yield remains elevated. These factors don’t directly affect NVIDIA’s earnings, but they could influence how the market reacts. With expectations already high, good earnings don’t necessarily mean the stock will go up.

My trade:

I’m not adding or trimming my NVDA position ahead of earnings. I’m simply continuing to hold.

I’m more focused on whether AI demand remains strong and whether management’s outlook for the coming quarters changes. For now, I’ll maintain my position and reassess after earnings.

Takeaway:

Holding is also a decision. For me, this earnings report isn’t about predicting the short term price move. It’s about seeing whether the reasons I originally chose to hold NVDA have changed.
