Todd Gordon Urges 7% Nvidia Weighting as Growth Slows From 60%-100% to 15%-20%

Summary

  • Nvidia holders should focus less on whether to sell and more on position size, Todd Gordon argued, saying a roughly 7% weighting — in line with the S&P 500 — is a sensible baseline.
  • Gordon said Nvidia still dominates more than 90% of the data-center GPU market and has powerful moats in CUDA software and product cadence, but its explosive phase is likely over as scale makes another 13-fold surge unrealistic.
  • Growth is still expected to be strong, with EPS projected at $4.77 in fiscal 2026, $9.00 next year and $15.98 by 2029, even as annual revenue growth decelerates toward 15%-20%.
  • Competition is becoming more credible: AMD is shipping its Helios rack-scale AI system to customers including Microsoft, and custom ASIC chips from hyperscalers such as Google add pressure on Nvidia's premium GPU franchise.
  • On valuation and trading, Gordon said Nvidia has been largely range-bound and identified $167-$153 as a support zone, suggesting investors trim only if their total Nvidia exposure sits meaningfully above the 7% benchmark.
