This makes me curious whether Nvidia’s stock is about ready to take off in 2026. For fiscal year 2026 (ending January 2026), Wall Street analysts expect 63% revenue growth, so its stock rose far more slowly than its revenue grew. This could be a clear sign that Nvidia’s stock is about to take off, and I think 2026 could be a far better year for the shares than 2025.<\/p>\n

That clearly shows that demand for its graphics processing units (GPUs)<\/a> isn’t slowing down. Nvidia has told investors that this artificial intelligence<\/a> computing megatrend will last through at least 2030, leaving several years of incredible growth to go.<\/p>\n At the midpoint, Wall Street analysts believe that Nvidia will generate $7.66 in earnings per share (EPS) next year. Next, we need to determine a reasonable valuation for Nvidia. The four next-largest companies trade at nearly identical price-to-earnings (P\/E)<\/a> ratios, so using a valuation of 33 times earnings is a fair analysis.<\/p>\n AAPL PE Ratio<\/a> data by YCharts<\/a>. PE Ratio = price-to-earnings ratio.<\/p>\n With a P\/E ratio of 33 and EPS of $7.66, that would price the stock at $253 by the end of the fiscal year. That’s a 35% gain, which is slightly less than its 2025 performance.<\/p>\n However, I don’t think it’s fair to value Nvidia at the same P\/E ratio as its big tech peers. The reason? None of them is growing remotely as fast as Nvidia. Currently, Nvidia has a P\/E ratio of 46, which is probably worth it for the growth it’s delivering. If Nvidia maintains a P\/E of 46, then its stock price would be $352 by the end of the fiscal year — or about an 87% return.<\/p>\n If I present you with a stock that likely has a one-year return floor of 35% or a ceiling of 87%, you’d likely go all-in on that stock. That’s where I expect Nvidia to be throughout 2026, making it a strong buy right now<\/a>.<\/p>\n Should you buy stock in Nvidia right now?<\/p>\n Before you buy stock in Nvidia, consider this:<\/p>\n The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks<\/a> for investors to buy now\u2026 and Nvidia wasn\u2019t one of them.
