Here&#8217;s the Best of the Bunch."},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Most of Nvidia&#8217;s AI bets are riding on one stock.<\/p>\n<p>Many investors like to keep track of famous investors&#8217; portfolios. That&#8217;s why you&#8217;ll see lots of articles about the stocks that Warren Buffett, Bill Ackman, David Tepper, and other billionaires are buying. Sometimes the trades made by well-known, successful investors can provide great ideas for other investors.<\/p>\n<p>But there&#8217;s another approach that isn&#8217;t as popular, but maybe it should be: Monitoring what&#8217;s in the portfolios of large, successful companies. Take Nvidia (<a class=\"ticker-symbol\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/quote\/nasdaq\/nvda\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NVDA<\/a> -1.43%), for example. The giant chipmaker has $4.3 billion invested in six <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/investing\/stock-market\/market-sectors\/information-technology\/ai-stocks\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">artificial intelligence (AI) stocks<\/a>. And one stands out as the best of the bunch. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"AI and digital images with a burst of light appearing above an outstretched hand.\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1757946914_245_\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"caption\">Image source: Getty Images.<\/p>\n<p>Nvidia&#8217;s AI six-pack<\/p>\n<p>As of June 30, 2025, Nvidia owned more than 7.7 million shares of Applied Digital (<a class=\"ticker-symbol\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/quote\/nasdaq\/apld\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">APLD<\/a> 3.99%) worth $77.7 million. Applied Digital operates <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/terms\/b\/blockchain\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">blockchain<\/a> and high-performance computing data centers. The company is also in the process of selling its cloud services business. <\/p>\n<p>Nvidia&#8217;s 1.1 million shares of Arm Holdings (<a class=\"ticker-symbol\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/quote\/nasdaq\/arm\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ARM<\/a> 1.79%) were valued at $178.1 million at the end of the second quarter of 2025. Arm is a leading developer of semiconductors, especially <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/terms\/c\/cpu\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">CPUs<\/a>. Over 325 billion chips made by the company have been shipped during its more than three decades in business. <\/p>\n<p>CoreWeave (<a class=\"ticker-symbol\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/quote\/nasdaq\/crwv\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">CRWV<\/a> 6.53%) ranks as Nvidia&#8217;s largest investment, with its nearly 24.3 million shares worth roughly $3.96 billion at the end of Q2. AI is the center of CoreWeave&#8217;s business. Its cloud platform was built from the ground up to support <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/terms\/g\/generative-ai\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">generative AI<\/a> applications. <\/p>\n<p>Like CoreWeave, Nebius Group (<a class=\"ticker-symbol\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/quote\/nasdaq\/nbis\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NBIS<\/a> -0.91%) provides a full-stack cloud platform focused on AI. Nvidia&#8217;s nearly 1.2 million shares of Nebius were valued at $65.9 million as of June 30, 2025. However, that stake is worth a lot more now: Nebius Group&#8217;s shares recently skyrocketed after landing a multibillion-dollar deal with Microsoft (<a class=\"ticker-symbol\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/quote\/nasdaq\/msft\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MSFT<\/a> 0.24%). <\/p>\n<p>Why is drugmaker Recursion Pharmaceuticals (<a class=\"ticker-symbol\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/quote\/nasdaq\/rxrx\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">RXRX<\/a> -0.31%) on a list of AI stocks in Nvidia&#8217;s portfolio? The company is a pioneer in using AI for drug discovery. Nvidia owned 7.7 million shares of Recursion worth almost $39 million at the end of Q2. <\/p>\n<p>Chinese autonomous driving technology company WeRide (<a class=\"ticker-symbol\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/quote\/nasdaq\/wrd\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">WRD<\/a> 4.98%) is Nvidia&#8217;s smallest equity investment. The GPU maker&#8217;s stake in WeRide was valued at around $13.7 million at the end of Q2. WeRide uses Nvidia&#8217;s technology in its robotaxis, mini-robobuses, and robovans. <\/p>\n<p>How these AI stocks compare<\/p>\n<p>Half of Nvidia&#8217;s AI portfolio consists of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/investing\/stock-market\/types-of-stocks\/large-cap-stocks\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">large-cap stocks<\/a>. Arm is by far the biggest of the group with a market cap of around $163 billion. CoreWeave&#8217;s and Nebius Group&#8217;s market caps are $57 billion and $22 billion, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s only one <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/investing\/stock-market\/types-of-stocks\/small-cap-stocks\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">small-cap stock<\/a> in the mix &#8212; Recursion Pharmaceuticals. However, the AI-focused drugmaker&#8217;s market cap of $1.98 billion is nearly in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/investing\/stock-market\/types-of-stocks\/mid-cap-stocks\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">mid-cap<\/a> category, along with WeRide and Applied Digital.<\/p>\n<p>Unsurprisingly, Arm boasts the greatest revenue ($4.12 billion over the last 12 months) of these six stocks owned by Nvidia. But CoreWeave&#8217;s trailing 12-month revenue of $3.53 billion isn&#8217;t too far behind. The others have much smaller revenue, with WeRide standing at the top of the laggards, with trailing 12-month sales of roughly $410.5 million.<\/p>\n<p>Arm is also the most profitable stock in the group, with trailing 12-month earnings of $699 million. All of the others are losing money right now, except for Nebius.<\/p>\n<p>We can throw earnings-based valuation metrics out of the window in trying to compare these six stocks. However, there&#8217;s a clear winner based on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/terms\/p\/price-to-sales-ratio-value-stocks\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">price-to-sales ratios<\/a>: CoreWeave. The AI cloud platform provider&#8217;s shares trade at 16.2 times trailing-12-month sales. Applied Digital comes in second place with a price-to-sales multiple of 23.7.<\/p>\n<p>What about growth prospects? I suspect all of these stocks have room to run. Based on Wall Street earnings growth projections for next year, though, CoreWeave comes out on top again. Analysts think the company&#8217;s earnings could soar more than 72% in 2026. <\/p>\n<p>The best of the bunch<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s the best AI stock in Nvidia&#8217;s portfolio? I think it&#8217;s CoreWeave.<\/p>\n<p>The main knock against CoreWeave is that it isn&#8217;t profitable yet. However, the reason why that&#8217;s the case is that the company continues to invest heavily in building out infrastructure to capitalize on its huge growth opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>CoreWeave has the most attractive valuation and the strongest growth prospects (according to Wall Street, anyway) of the six AI stocks owned by Nvidia. I agree with analysts&#8217; bullish view about the stock. At least for now, CoreWeave looks like the best of the bunch.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/author\/2035\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Keith Speights<\/a> has positions in Microsoft.
