Nvidia Seen Hitting $300 by End-2026 as Hyperscaler Capex Targets $1 Trillion

3 articles · Updated · The Motley Fool · Aug 15

Summary

  • $300 per share is the latest analyst target for Nvidia by late 2026, implying roughly 33% upside from about $225 ahead of its Aug. 26 earnings report.
  • $1 trillion in 2027 data-center capital spending from AI hyperscalers underpins that call, up from $650 billion in 2026 as cloud providers' revenue and profits keep climbing.
  • 43% revenue growth projected by Wall Street next year and the planned launch of Nvidia's Vera Rubin architecture later this year are cited as drivers for another leg of sales growth.
  • 35 times forward earnings by year-end could put Nvidia near $315, the analyst argues, saying the stock is trading below the nearly 40 times forward earnings seen in recent Augusts.
  • Aug. 26 earnings are framed as the likely catalyst for sentiment to shift, especially if customers begin outlining firmer 2027 AI spending plans.
