Last Friday, Nvidia’s stock continued its downward trend, dropping more than 4% to $102.83.
Over the week, shares of the tech giant have plummeted 14%, dragging down the wider U.S. technology sector. This sell-off in tech stocks has also affected the crypto market, with Bitcoin and other altcoins undergoing notable corrections.
Despite the slump, Fundstrat analyst Tom Lee views the dip as a potential buying opportunity. During an appearance on CNBC’s Closing Bell, Lee suggested that Nvidia’s recent decline might signal a favorable moment for investment.

He noted that Nvidia has experienced similar 30% pullbacks in the past, often followed by higher valuations. Currently, the stock’s price-to-earnings ratio stands in the mid-20s, which Lee considers reasonable.
Lee’s perspective aligns with Bank of America’s bullish outlook, which targets Nvidia stock at $165. The recent tech sell-off, combined with a $406 billion drop in Nvidia’s market capitalization and a DOJ antitrust probe, has heightened market volatility.
Despite these challenges, Nvidia has dismissed concerns related to the DOJ’s subpoena and is prepared to cooperate with regulators if needed.
