Despite the Nasdaq hitting new all-time highs this week, select disruptive growth stocks still have massive long-term upside potential, particularly certain names benefitting from the Artificial Intelligence (AI) mega trend (which, by the way, is still just getting started). In this report, we share 7 top ideas, with a special focus on “Big Data” AI stock Palantir, and then conclude with our strong opinion on investing in disruptive growth stocks at this point in the market cycle.
Nvidia: AI Meet Digital Revolution (5 Stocks Worth Considering)
When two of the economy’s biggest mega trends combine, you get Nvidia (+59% ytd) and offshoots like Super Micro Computer (+202% ytd). And if you’re wondering if its “too late” to invest in these two mega trends (i.e. Artificial Intelligence and/or the Digital Revolution) the answer is a resounding, no way! We’re still in the early innings and here are 5 stock ideas that could potentially ride these waves dramatically higher in the decade ahead (volatility haters need not read on).
Nvidia: 40 Top Chip Stocks (Ranked by Value)
With Nvidia shares now up more than 45% this year (and up over 1,870% in the last 5 years) some investors are again wondering if the stock is overpriced. On one hand, the semiconductor industry is notoriously cyclical, and big price pullbacks (60% to 80%) are not uncommon. On the other hand, Nvidia benefits enormously from two megatrends (artificial intelligence (“AI”) and the great cloud migration/ digitization), and the share price gains may still just be getting started. In this report, we take a closer look at Nvidia’s current valuation versus 40 other top chip stocks, share our views on what sets it apart, and then conclude with our strong opinion on investing.
Top Chip & Hardware Stocks Benefiting from AI and Cloud Migration
In this report, we review market sector performance. Technology continues to dominate, semiconductors in particular. We consider the themes behind the sector strength (e.g. Artificial Intelligence and the digitization of everything), and then dive into our top semiconductor (and related hardware) companies benefiting from the secular trends, including our current holdings.
Nvidia: Despite Price Gains, Valuation Now Lower
Nvidia +17,347%: 40 New Top Growth Stocks Worth Considering
I wrote a positive report about Nvidia (NVDA) in 2009 (see image below), and since then the shares are up over 17,347%. I believe Nvidia shares can still go dramatically higher from here (driven by momentum and investor exuberance about artificial intelligence, in particular), but based on valuation, there are other (newer and smaller) high-growth stocks that are also worth considering (such as the 40 included in the detailed data table in this report). After reviewing Nvidia’s business and current valuation, we highlight a couple names from the list that are also particularly attractive, and then conclude with our strong opinion on investing.

Intel Is Ugly: So Are AMD, Nvidia and Micron
Top semiconductor businesses (including Intel, Micron, Nvidia and AMD) have a few things in common, such as strong margins and ugly year-to-date performance. However, their underlying businesses and growth rates are very different. This report focuses on Intel, the leader in PC and server chips, and then compares it to competitors Nvidia, AMD and Micron. We conclude with our opinion on investing.

Nvidia (NVDA): Quick Note
Just a quick note on Nvidia, a leading semiconductor chip maker that is growing rapidly thanks to its powerful graphics processing units (GPU) / chips. More specifically, Nvidia continues to grow rapidly thanks to its leadership position in gaming (+55% sales growth yoy), data centers (+100% sales growth yoy), and its many other uses, as will be discussed.
