5/6 Earnings on Wednesday: Nvidia reports its next quarterly update on Wednesday. Investors will be watching out for growth guidance, gross margins, order books, and inventories.

4/6 ⚠️ Potential Risks: The high valuation leaves little room for missteps. Any slowdown in AI demand or margin pressures could lead to significant stock corrections. Additionally, efficiency breakthroughs, like those from DeepSeek, might reduce the need for Nvidia's GPUs.

3/6 📈 Valuation Insights: Nvidia's stock isn't cheap, trading at 37 times forward earnings, above its 20-year average of 29. However, if AI demand continues its exponential rise, this premium valuation could be justified.

2/6 💰 Staggering Growth Projections: Analysts forecast Nvidia's revenue to surge over 50% this year and 30% the next, with profits potentially tripling. Such figures underscore the company's pivotal role in the AI revolution.

1/6 Nvidia's riding the AI wave, but what's it really worth? Let's break down the chip giant's performance and outlook ahead of earnings. 🧵

6/7 The market seems to be overlooking this opportunity. Despite Arm's strong share price rally and the current buyback, SoftBank's discount to NAV remains wide.

5/7 Here's the kicker: SoftBank shares offer a cheap way to gain exposure to Arm, reminiscent of the successful Alibaba proxy strategy in the past.

4/7 SoftBank's ongoing 500 billion yen buyback program represents about 6% of outstanding shares. This could potentially narrow the discount to Net Asset Value (NAV).

3/7 With ¥5 trillion ($32 billion) on hand, SoftBank can easily cover upcoming payments, including $7.9 billion for its Arm stake and bond repayments.

2/7 SoftBank's loan-to-value ratio is at a healthy 12.9%, down from 18.2% in December 2022. This shows improved financial stability and reduced risk.

What do you think? Are you still bullish on stocks for the long run, or do you think we’re in for a slowdown? Let’s discuss 👇

🎯 The bottom line?

Instead of 13%+ annual gains like we’ve seen, most estimates suggest the S&P 500 will return somewhere between 4-7% per year over the next decade.

Not terrible—but not a get-rich-quick scenario either.

⚠️ So what could go wrong?
🔺 Interest rates staying high
🔺 A major recession hitting corporate profits
🔺 The market already being too optimistic

All of these could drag down returns even further.

🤖 What about AI? Could the boom in artificial intelligence push earnings even higher?

Maybe—but history tells us big tech shifts take time to fully translate into profits. And there’s always the risk of overhype.

📉 Valuation Changes: This is the wild card.

Stocks today are expensive compared to history. If valuations fall back to normal levels, that could knock 1-2% per year off returns.

And if they don’t? Well, maybe the party continues.

💰 Dividends: Right now, they’re paying around 1.5% per year—not huge, but a steady boost to returns.

The real question is whether valuations will help or hurt over the long run…

📈 Earnings Growth: The backbone of stock market gains.

Best guess? Around 5% per year if companies keep increasing sales and don’t see a major profit margin squeeze.

Not bad, but not enough to repeat the past decade’s magic on its own.

🔑 There are three main drivers of long-term market returns:
✅ Earnings Growth – Can companies keep making more money?
✅ Dividends – The cash that gets handed back to investors.
✅ Valuation Changes – Will people still be willing to pay high prices for stocks?
