Is Nvidia’s Sudden Slide a Signal to Buy?
Nvidia (NVDA) has been on a tear, climbing more than 95% year‑to‑date before the price slipped back on March 8.
The Current Pullback
Since that dip, the share price has fallen a whopping 13.6% from its March high of $974. That’s deeper than the “soft” 12% pullbacks‑usually‑good ones we’ve seen in 2023‑24.
What Analysts Are Saying
“It’s too early to call it a straight‑up or a drag,” says Cory Mitchell from Trading.biz. “Pullbacks under 12% have historically bounced back. Over 12%? That’s a red flag for a more chaotic or bigger decline.”
Mitchell adds, “If the price starts climbing again very soon, the up‑trend stays intact. If it keeps sliding, expect a month or more of choppiness or a larger fall.”
Nvidia’s Fundamentals – Still Solid
- P/E (current): 67.6 – looks steep at first glance.
- Forward P/E (2026 estimate): 28.7 – much more reasonable.
- Analysts forecast a 30% annual earnings growth for the next five years.
- EPS growth (last 5 yrs): 48.3% average.
- PEG (price vs. 5‑year earnings growth): 1.0 – fairly valued.
- Morningstar rating: “A” for financial health.
Why the Pullback Matters
Since late 2022, when pullbacks stayed under 12%, Nvidia usually kept rallying. For pullbacks >12%, swingy trading often follows – the price can shuffle back and forth or dive deeper.
A look back: a 57% rally in late 2022 was followed by just an 11.3% slide and a new rally of 25%. Then a 12%+ drop that turned into a 26% decline.
Bottom Line – Pick Your Play
If you’re eyeing a bargain, a 13.6% slide could be a chance to get in – but keep an eye on the next move. A quick rebound is all you need to keep the up‑trend alive; an extra dip might signal a longer shaky run. Either way, Nvidia’s fundamentals are still strong enough to keep its future in the conversation.

Price Roller‑Coaster 2023–2024: What’s Next?
Picture the market as a wild amusement park ride: a steep ascent, a sudden dip, a quick rebound, and then a long wait. That’s exactly what the price has been up to in the last few years.
Memory Lane: The 2023 Highlights
- Jan 2023 – +66 % spike, then a –11.4 % slide followed by a +105 % climb.
- Short after, a –10.9 % pullback set the stage for a +29 % rally.
- Another drop of –16 % left the market jittery for months—think of it like the “choppy” part of the merry‑go‑round.
2023–2024 Continuation
- From late 2023 into early 2024, the price surged again: +66 % followed by a modest –11.2 % decline.
- A brisk +47 % rally was then knocked by a –13.6 % pullback, the current “slip‑back” we’re watching.
What’s Brewing?
Two possibilities loom:
- The price keeps yawning downwards.
- It stays on a choppy trading style—napping around the recent peak of $974 with no real progress.
History can be repeatable, but it can also be unpredictable. Manage risk like you’d guard an alarm clock in a hedge fund.
