Although media reports or rumors on a significant change in the business perspectives of a company generally lead to the trend of its actions and lead to an immediate price change, there are still certain fundamental factors which ultimately stimulate the purchasing and maintenance decision.
At Zacks, we prioritize the evaluation of change in the projection of the future profits of a business on something else. Indeed, we believe that the current value of its future profits flow is what determines the fair value of its actions.
Our analysis is essentially based on the way in which selling analysts covering the stock revise their profits to take into account the latest commercial trends. When estimates of profits for a company increase, the fair value of its stock also increases. And when the fair value of an action is higher than its current market price, investors tend to buy the action, which has allowed its price to go up. For this reason, empirical studies indicate a strong correlation between the trends in revisions to estimate profits and the movements of short -term action prices.
For the current quarter, NVIDIA should display a profit of $ 0.90 per share, indicating a change of + 47.5% compared to the quarter of the previous year. The estimate of the Zaks consensus has changed -3.7% in the past 30 days.

For the next financial year, the estimate of consensual profits of $ 5.38 indicates a change of + 24.6% compared to what Nvidia should report a year ago. During last month, the estimate changed -1.3%.
