  • Nvidia is trading near $188 and Jefferies projects about a $52 gain, roughly 28% upside for 2026.
  • Nvidia leads the AI chip market and supplies AI products to major tech firms, maintaining customer dependence and strong global cash flow.

Jefferies raised its 2026 price forecast for Nvidia, increasing the target from $220 to $240 and citing the company’s dominant position in AI and robust cash flow. Nvidia is trading around $188, and Jefferies projects a potential $52 rise to the new target. The firm noted the company’s AI products keep large tech customers dependent on its services.

The report highlighted strong global cash flow that supports a profitable balance sheet and revenue stream for Nvidia. The firm also pointed to broad demand: retail and institutional buying has remained active with few sustained trading lulls over the past five years. The stock has risen more than 1,300% during that period.

Jefferies estimated that the upgraded target implies up to a 28% return in 2026 and illustrated the potential with a $1,000 investment growing to $1,280 if the forecast materializes. The coverage recommended accumulation below the $200 range given the expected upside. The firm also noted ongoing competition but emphasized Nvidia’s leadership in AI hardware and software.

The analysis referenced plans to test a robotaxi service in 2027 as one example of broader AI-related activity influencing the company’s outlook. Despite the bullish price upgrade, Jefferies removed Nvidia from its Franchise Picks for 2026.
