Motley Fool Picks 4 AI Stocks as Nvidia Trades at 21.9 Times Forward Earnings

3 articles · Updated · The Motley Fool · Jul 31

Summary

  • Four AI names — Nvidia, Taiwan Semiconductor, Nebius and Micron — were flagged as buys as sector skepticism leaves leading chip and infrastructure stocks cheaper than their growth outlooks suggest.
  • Nvidia anchors the list: the analyst says hyperscaler data-center spending could top $1 trillion next year, while the stock trades at 21.9 times forward earnings and about 15 times next year's earnings.
  • Taiwan Semiconductor was highlighted for demand visibility, with CEO C.C. Wei saying chip demand should stay elevated through at least 2029 or 2030; the shares trade at 23.8 times forward earnings.
  • Nebius offers the highest growth profile, with Wall Street projecting 540% revenue growth in 2026 and 238% in 2027, while Micron is down about 25% from its peak and could benefit from a memory shortage management sees lasting beyond 2027.
