Onward To The Elephant In The Room: NVDA
Good Thursday Morning, MPTraders! August 28, 2025-- Pre-Market Update: There are two trading days remaining in August... Labor Market Economic Data today (8:30 AM ET) ahead of Friday's potentially consequential PCE Inflation Report for July...
Now, onward to the elephant in the room: NVDA, which exceeded The Street's estimates on Earnings and Revenues, and guided higher, but without any updated date on sales to China. Couldn't the outstanding-- almost unprecedented performance and future guidance without China sales-- be construed as a positive setup for the quarters ahead, considering that the U.S.-China relationship is being transformed for the better from a U.S. perspective?
After all, the company is still a juggernaut, with or without China.
The Wall Street research houses are certainly thinking and behaving that way...
Wall Street's love affair with NVDA remains intact-- and is strengthening. Good luck standing in front of it or fading it...

Technically, my attached 4-Hour Chart continues to argue that NVDA ended a significant correction at its 8/20/25 low of 168.80 off of the ATH at 185.22 (7/31/25).
Based on my setup work, this means to me that all of the price action after the 168.80 low represents the initiation of a new upleg-- with an initial high at 183.40 yesterday, followed by the Earnings-induced pullback to last eve's post-Earnings spike low of 171.86 that held above 8/20 low of 168.80, and attracted renewed buying interest that has propelled the stock to 179-180 so far in today's pre-market trading...
Only a plunge that breaks and sustains beneath 168.80 will invalidate my currently positive outlook for NVDA that projects next to 196-201... Last is 179.44...
