Nvidia is well positioned to benefit over the long term and in the near term. In fact, my prediction is this hot stock won't take a pause this year and instead will soar in 2025 — thanks to this one thing. Let's check it out.

One of the biggest beneficiaries of this trend is Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA), which pioneered the graphics processing units (GPUs) that have become the gold standard for running AI systems. However, reports emerged recently that suggested a Chinese start-up had cracked the code for developing strong AI systems while using inferior chips and novel training processes.

Since the start of 2023, Nvidia's (NASDAQ: NVDA) stock has gained an astronomical 906% as of the time of writing. While this is common investor thinking, it's caused many (including myself) to miss a large chunk of Nvidia's rise.
