Nvidia is the pickaxe seller in a gold rush. Their valuation is very much tied to how big AI grows in the next several years, and how quickly competitors can arise. I could easily see them continuing to go up from here, especially if AI keeps on expanding utility instead of leveling off as some fear.

Nvidia was lucky with the perfect sequence of video and compute farms, then cryptocurrency and model training, and now the model training direction is flowering into application (hopes) left and right. But they did great with their luck. And now they are yet again in the position of selling tools to soak up everyone else's capital investment power. They are still now (and yet again) at the perfect spot for a giant new market. But that's still a high valuation - that is even if that new market grows to the sky, it's not clear that it can justify that new valuation. Is Nvidia failing anytime soon? No. Is it the best investment you can find? That's harder to tell which is why the complaint of "very high valuation already". It's not in doubt that it's a great business. It's less easy to decide whether it's a great investment to get in right now. But everything is relative a PE around 40-60 is NOT historically crazy high for the verge of a giant new market. And yet it is very high for a trillion dollar market cap. This is exciting: a trillion dollar market cap at the verge of a giant new market!
