Good Morning

NVIDIA moved up to set a new high on Wednesday and extended the move on Thursday, setting fresh highs and is likely to move even higher as the year progresses. The move is driven by increasing demand for AI infrastructure and analysts raising their price targets. The trend is leading the expectations to above $200, with potential for a 70% increase relative to the June breakout point at the high end.

The next for the S&P 500 is obvious. With market-leading NVIDIA heading to new highs, the tech complex will likely follow suit and drive the broad-market index to a new high. The S&P 500 can rise significantly in this scenario, potentially reaching the 7,400 level within the next 18 to 24 months. The risk for NVIDIA is that it will lose its leadership position, but that is not expected to happen until sometime in 2026 when focus shifts away from the initial AI infrastructure build-out to inferencing and applications.
