The short version

In October 2025 Sven Carlin said Nvidia could not lose market share for now but faced plenty of competitors. In November 2025 they said Nvidia's numbers looked perfect, warned that semiconductor booms usually turn to busts and called the stock too risky for them. In February 2026 they estimated a likely 5% long-term return. In March 2026 they said they would go short if Nvidia reached 6–7 trillion. In April 2026 they did not want to bet on its success lasting. In June 2026 they called it fairly priced if conditions continued. In August 2026 they named customer financing as a risk.

How to read this

Quotes are short excerpts from Sven Carlin's public YouTube videos, attributed to the speaker and linked to the timestamp. “Close that day” is NVDA's split-adjusted closing price on the day the video was published (New York time); if markets were closed that day, the last close before it. If the stock has split since a quote, the card shows the price it traded at that day and, beneath it, the split-adjusted close the % change uses. “Since” compares that close with the latest close on 2026-11-02. It is a price observation, not the creator's realized return, and not investment advice. How the price change is calculated. Next to it we show SPY, the ETF tracking the S&P 500, over the same two dates — so a move can be read against the market rather than on its own: why we compare with SPY. Each quote also carries a label — Named as a pick, Risk acknowledged, Reducing — describing what kind of statement it was: see what the labels mean.
