Nvidia, AMD Stocks Slip Premarket Despite Price Target Boosts: What's Going On?
Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
Nvidia (NVDA) and AMD (AMD) stocks slipped in premarket trading despite receiving price target boosts from Mizuho Securities analyst Vijay Rakesh, who raised Nvidia's target to $920 and AMD's to $200. The decline may be due to a cooling of buying interest after significant year-to-date gains and apprehensions ahead of the January inflation report. Nvidia is also set to report its quarterly results on Feb. 21.
