Whatever management of management, below, I highlight a title likely to be in demand and another which could see a new drawback. Remember, however, my deadline is just For the coming week, Monday March 17 to Friday March 21.
NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) should organize its long -awaited GPU Technology (GTC) (GTC), during which it is likely to show its latest advances in generative AI, accelerated IT, large -language models, robotics, etc.
The NVIDIA GTC conference has always been a positive catalyst for the performance of the company’s shares, actions exceeding the semiconductor index of Philadelphia during the week around the GTC in the past five years.
The four -day event, presented as “the first AI world conference”, will start on Monday from the San Jose Convention Center, in California and has more than 1,000 sessions, 2,000 speakers and nearly 400 exhibitors. The company provides 25,000 participants in person, with 300,000 people who are virtually assisted.
Most of the spotlights will come across the opening speech of CEO Jensen Huang Tuesday at 1:00 p.m.. According to the description, Huang will share how Nvidia’s accelerated IT platform stimulates the next wave in AI, digital twins, cloud technologies and sustainable IT.
Analysts predict that Nvidia will unveil its AI GB300 chip, which could start to ship in May. In addition, other key members of the NVIDIA management team should reveal new details on the planned launch of the new generation GPU, Rubin, in 2026.

The NVDA action ended the Friday session at $ 121.67, which won the IA giant based in Santa Clara, California, a market capitalization of 2.97 billions of dollars. A shares have been down 9.4% since the start of the year in the middle of growing skepticism as to whether the AI boom can justify assessments from top to bottom.
Despite the recent slowdown, the consensus among analysts is extremely optimistic, most of the purchase ratings or overweight were maintained. Analysts see an increase of 41.8% with an average target of $ 172.50.
On the other hand, Nike is preparing to publish his report on the results for the third tax quarter of February at 4:15 p.m. Thursday. Despite the arrival of a new CEO, Elliot Hill, in October, aimed to direct a turnaround, things did not look for the giant of sportswear.
Market players expect an important swing in NKE stocks after printing, the options market pointing to a possible implicit decision of 9% in both directions. The feeling of analysts is extremely lower with 23 downward revisions and no upward adjustment in the weeks preceding the report.

Nike is expected to display an annual decrease of 39% of the profit adjusted per share to $ 0.30, expected income from 11% compared to the period of the previous year to $ 11 billion.
For the future, I believe that Nike leaders will disappoint investors in their annual advice and take on a cautious tone due to the drop in sales in North America as well as low demand in China.
Nike is a proven brand undergoing a necessary but painful transition. Athletics clothing and shoes are struggling with low income for several quarters, swollen stocks and increased competition from brands like Holding (Nyse: Onon) and Deckers’ (Nyse: Deck) Hoka.
Hill is implementing strategic reset, focusing on sports innovation rather than lifestyle products, but this transition will take time.

It should be noted that Nike currently has a “equitable” global financial health side with a score of 2.5 out of 5.0 due to the permanent concerns concerning the growth of woven sales and weaken the gross beneficiary margins.
