Author is bullish NVDA into earnings, holding shares and March calls while citing low forward valuation, hyperscaler capex, and a Supreme Court tariff catalyst.
NVDA — LONG Author is bullish NVDA into earnings, holding NVDA shares plus March 20 calls on NVDA (underlying proxy: NVDA), and argues NVDA trades at roughly 38x forward earnings despite 55% YoY growth and a $65B revenue target, versus Walmart near 44x and AMD being behind on technology. The causal mechanism is that hyperscalers are locked into over $600B of AI capex for 2026 while NVDA is supply-constrained, with TSMC CoWoS expansion and Q1 chips already sold, so a Q1 guidance print above $70B on Feb 26 could force short covering. Catalysts cited are the Supreme Court tariff decision expected around 2/20-2/25, which could remove billions in tech-hardware supply-chain costs, and Jensen Huang's earnings call days later. Main stated risk is the binary earnings options trade going wrong, which the author jokes could lead to a Wendy's application.
Positions:
35 nvda $190 3/20 calls
38 nvda $180 3/20 calls
14 nvda $175 3/20 calls
-60 nvda $170 5/15 puts (part cash secured part naked)
*6400 nvda shares (not options but nvda position)
My DD:
1: nvda is trading at a historical discount (you are buying a stock with 55% yoy growth with a pe less than Walmart)
