Nvidia stock snapped a two-session decline on Thursday, defying the weakness seen in the broader market and the tech sector. The stock has risen by over 32% so far this year.&nbsp;A strategist said late Thursday that he thinks&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/NVDA">Nvidia stock</a> is still a bargain, as the stock traded at a price-earnings (P/E) multiple of 26 times forward earnings. In an interview with CNBC, FundStrat’s Head of Research, Tom Lee,&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8RY5CkXQOU&amp;list=PLVbP054jv0KpnXXjfF2rd_p8rWAkULk1f&amp;index=6">drew</a> parallels with 1998, which was the liftoff point for the tech bubble before the final 18-month surge.&nbsp;&nbsp;Cisco stock, which went parabolic during the dot-com bubble, traded at 60 times the P/E multiple at that time, the strategist said, adding that its forward P/E peaked at 210 times. He also underscored the fact that Nvidia, a high-growth stock, trades at a lower valuation than some high-profile defensive consumer staples stocks, such as Walmart (WMT) and Costco (COST).<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/NVDA_5_year_PE_chart_png_8504d1c1da.webp" alt="NVDA 5-year PE chart.png">Source: KoyfinLee said he viewed the current stock valuations as “pretty reasonable.”&nbsp; The strategist noted that Nvidia, while accounting for 8% of the S&amp;P 500's market capitalization weighting, contributes 7% of the S&amp;P 500's earnings. Therefore, Nvidia is not necessarily distorting equity valuations, he said.Lee said, “If companies are saying that AI is something where they're actually allocating capital and many are, of course, seeing productive gains, I think it's justified that that would be what you'd expect to be the first wave of investment in spending.”Over time, the FundStrat Managing Partner expects these spending to deliver productivity gains and other benefits. “I’m comfortable with the idea [that] it's a supercycle,” he said, adding that there is likely to be a broadening of the benefits and the broadening of opportunities over time.Nvidia's stock was down moderately in the overnight session leading up to Friday.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/trump-administration-weighs-tougher-rules-to-push-domestic-manufacturing/chDV3i5R3IW">More Pain Ahead For Apple, Dell?

The semiconductor industry is likely to face pushback, as a report suggests that the Trump administration is considering a more stringent plan to bring chip manufacturing onshore.&nbsp;A Wall Street Journal <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.wsj.com/economy/trade/trump-chip-tariffs-exemptions-90fa2ab3">report</a>, citing people familiar with the concept, stated that the new plan envisions penalizing companies that don’t maintain a 1:1 ratio for domestic manufacturing versus imports, with tariffs. The rumored plan aligns with a past message from President Donald Trump that semiconductor companies that don’t invest more in the U.S. would be slapped with tariffs as much as 100%.The&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SOXX">iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX)</a> continued to attract ‘bullish’ sentiment (57/100) from among the retail users of Stocktwits. The message volume on the stream was at ‘high’&nbsp;levels.Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has reportedly discussed the plan with semiconductor industry executives, emphasizing to them the importance of the measure in ensuring economic security. The U.S. companies now source much of their chip needs from overseas, particularly Taiwan, which is seen as vulnerable to Chinese aggression or natural calamities.&nbsp;The report stated that the implementation of the plan could face challenges, as it would be difficult to determine the tariffs on products powered by chips made in the U.S. but assembled abroad.Sources told the Journal that if a company can guarantee manufacturing one million chips in the U.S., it would be credited with that amount. Over time, this credit can be used by the company and its customers to import without any levy until its plant comes online in the U.S. That said, the companies could be given some grace period initially to adjust their U.S. manufacturing capacity.Companies such as Apple (AAPL) and Dell Technologies (DELL), which source components from various parts of the world, could be among the most severely affected,&nbsp;according to the report.&nbsp;These companies may have to track the number of chips they source from overseas and match the numbers in the U.S. On the other hand, the new plan could be a positive for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM), Micron Technology (MU), and GlobalFoundries (GFS), which have all increased their U.S. production capacity.&nbsp;For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/meta-reportedly-mulls-tapping-rival-s-gemini-ai/chDVPhtR3I9">Zuckerberg Needs Google’s Help?

Nvidia Corp. (NVDA) stock received a bullish update from Barclays as analyst Tom O'Malley lifted the firm’s price target to $240 from $200, reiterating an ‘Overweight’ rating on the stock.&nbsp;The new target reflects rising confidence in the company’s dominant position in artificial intelligence infrastructure, as well as a growing list of strategic partnerships.Barclays based its new valuation on Nvidia’s earnings potential, forecasting an implied earnings per share of $7.85. The firm added $35 billion in potential revenue stemming from Nvidia's recent collaboration with OpenAI to its model. According to a CNBC&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/09/25/nvidia-to-rally-more-than-30percent-as-dealmaking-ramps-up-barclays-says.html">report</a>, at a 30x multiple, the firm expects Nvidia’s valuation to climb sharply as AI adoption deepens across various industries.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/NVDA">Nvidia stock</a> traded over 1% lower on Thursday, after the morning bell.

These include a joint investment of up to $100 billion in OpenAI, a data infrastructure collaboration with Alibaba Group Holding (BABA), and a $5 billion partnership with Intel Corp.

Nvidia Stock Gets A Price Target Hike From Barclays – Check Out The New Level 

Barclays based its new valuation on Nvidia’s earnings potential, forecasting an implied earnings per share of $7.85, adding $35 billion in potential revenue stemming from the chipmaker’s recent collaboration with OpenAI.

Intel Corp. (INTC) stock could see follow-through buying in Thursday’s session, as an analyst’s upgrade pushed the stock up by over 3.50% in the early premarket session. If the upward momentum accelerates,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/INTC">Intel’s stock</a> remains on track to challenge the 52-week high of $32.38 hit last Thursday.&nbsp;On Wednesday, Intel rallied 6.4% after a Bloomberg report said the company had approached Apple (AAPL) regarding a&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/intel-stock-rally-picks-up-pace-on-rumors-of-apple-lifeline/chDksywR3EO">potential investment.</a> This comes on top of a $2 billion commitment from SoftBank and a 10% stake picked up by the Trump administration in August. Last week, Nvidia announced that it would invest $5 billion in the struggling chipmaker.Following these developments, Seaport Research analyst Jay Goldberg upgraded Intel stock to ‘Neutral’ from ‘Sell,’ according to the summary of note published on The Fly on Thursday. While believing that Intel was “on the wrong path with a shrinking window" to save its fabs, the firm said the stock will likely be driven by follow-on investments and the potential for a "stop-gap solution" in the near-term. Seaport said it remains cautious on the company's longer-term fundamentals.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment toward INTC tempered slightly to ‘bullish’ (62/100) as of early Thursday, from ‘extremely bullish’ a day ago.

Nvidia’s stock has been in a broad consolidation phase since August, following a strong uptrend that began after the post-tariff sell-off in early April. Sentiment toward the stock turned lackluster amid the Chinese government’s pushback against the use of Nvidia chips, and most recently, concerns about the company’s investments in other companies, especially its partners.Retail traders, however, have turned upbeat over the past three months. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment toward&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/NVDA">Nvidia’s stock</a> remained ‘bullish’ (56/100) as of late Wednesday, and the message volume, however, held ‘low.’<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:616/52;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_09_25_at_2_47_01_AM_png_529d00ed62.webp" alt="Screenshot 2025-09-25 at 2.47.01 AM.png" width="616" height="52"><figcaption>NVDA sentiment and message volume as of 2:45 a.m. ET, Sept. 25 | source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>Nvidia has been a significant beneficiary of the artificial intelligence (AI) revolution that has gained momentum. The company has the first-mover advantage in the market for high-performance AI chips, while also evolving into a one-stop shop for all AI needs of companies and governments.&nbsp;China, a vital cog in Nvidia’s operations, became a headwind for the company as the Jensen Huang-led company was caught in the crosshairs of the geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and China. The U.S.’s China chip curbs deprived the company of a sizeable chunk of revenues and profits.&nbsp;As Nvidia worked to sidestep the ban with new stripped-down chips developed exclusively for the Chinese market,&nbsp;Xi Jinping’s government deemed it fit to send advisories to government establishments and companies against using Nvidia chips. Nvidia also faces competition from domestic Chinese companies, such as Huawei, which have stepped up efforts to capitalize on the opportunities arising from the U.S. chipmaker’s&nbsp;struggles in China.Some analysts&nbsp;are also concerned about Nvidia bailing out partner companies, such as CoreWeave. The company’s recent announcement about investing $100 billion in AI startup OpenAI has also not been&nbsp;well received by&nbsp;everyone. Alongside the investment, the two companies also announced plans to build 10 gigawatts of AI compute capacity, with millions of Nvidia GPUs powering OpenAI’s next-generation AI infrastructure.While DA Davidson analysts expressed concerns about Nvidia evolving as an “investor of last resort,” Morgan Stanley analyst Joseph Moore said in a note released Wednesday that “We view all of this as framing the bull case, rather than a certainty, given the sheer numbers involved.”Nvidia’s stock has traded in a 52-week range of $86.62 and $184.55, and for the year-to-date period, it has gained about 32%. According to Koyfin data, the analysts’ consensus price target for the stock is $212.47, implying a 20% upside from its close on Wednesday.&nbsp;For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp; <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/apple-says-eu-s-digital-act-makes-it-harder-to-do-business-in-europe/chDkzgAR3EV">Apple Says EU’s Digital Markets Act Makes It Harder To Do Business In Europe, Calls For Its Abolition</a>

Intel Corp.’s (INTC) shares rose 6.41% in Wednesday’s regular session, and added 2.2% in extended trading on the prospects of the chipmaker getting another lifeline — this time from Apple, Inc. (AAPL).Intel has held talks with Apple regarding a potential investment by the Tim Cook-led company, as well as a collaboration between the two parties, Bloomberg&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-09-24/intel-is-seeking-an-investment-from-apple-as-part-of-its-comeback-bid">reported,</a> citing people familiar with the matter. The report cautioned that the talks were in an early stage and may not come to fruition. The struggling chipmaker has also reportedly sent feelers to other companies regarding potential investments.Incidentally, Apple was a longtime Intel customer before transitioning to in-house chip development, beginning in 2020. The&nbsp;Tim Cook-led company also bought most of Intel’s modem chip business in 2019.Following the surfacing of the rumor, the&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/INTC">Intel stock</a> drew heavy retail chatter on Stocktwits, with the 24-hour message volume leading up to late Wednesday nearly doubling.
