Golden Finance reported that Goldman Sachs stated in its latest report that while Nvidia's (NVDA.O) latest financial report and guidance for the next quarter are stable and basically meet Wall Street's expectations, they may still struggle to meet the market's previously high expectations, potentially putting downward pressure on its stock price in the short term. Goldman Sachs analysts believe that the market has largely digested the growth potential brought by its new generation Blackwell architecture chips. However, Goldman Sachs still maintains a "buy" rating on Nvidia and has a 12-month target price of $200. This target price is based on an estimate of the company's standardized earnings per share of $5.75 and a 35x price-earnings ratio (P/E). The report also highlights four key downside risks that investors need to be cautious of: a slowdown in AI infrastructure spending, increased competition leading to market share loss, competition leading to profit margin erosion, and supply chain constraints.
