Buying stocks at a steep discount and selling them at a peak has always been a strategy that captivated investors. Entering the market at a perceived low point remains a popular approach, whether through dollar-cost averaging, swing trading, or long-term investing.
One such stock drawing intense scrutiny is Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), a semiconductor giant at the forefront of AI, GPU technology, and data center growth.
Nvidia‘s stock has seen significant volatility, with investors debating whether its recent dip presents a buying opportunity or a falling knife scenario. Some see the current price as a discounted entry point, while others warn of further declines due to market uncertainty, geopolitical risks, and earnings pressures.
Don't Miss:
In a recent Reddit post, a 37-year-old investor declared going all-in on Nvidia at $101 per share, calling it a "buy in super cheap" moment.
“Now is perfect to buy, to be honest. The stock went down 10% today, woo whee, that’s perfect. Buy in super cheap. I doubt it’s gonna go all the way down like that, it hit in the $80s, so yeah, going to $90 is a likely good buying area,” he wrote.
His goal is to capitalize on short-term dips while holding long-term if necessary, but Reddit investors and community members have started a debate on whether his strategy is a good or bad move.

Wait for a Clear Bottom
Many Redditors warned against buying too soon, arguing that Nvidia could drop further before stabilizing.
“This drop may go on for months and while nobody wants to believe it, it could go down to as low as $60. I would wait for a few solid green days in a row and better economic news before jumping back in,” a Redditor wrote.
A Nvidia investor mentioned that a high beta makes it more sensitive to market swings, so he suggested the poster wait for broader stability.
“My view as an NVDA investor is that the S&P 500 has another leg down of roughly 15% from here once people truly realize the impact of the tariff trade war. With a beta of about 2, this means we could see NVDA go down roughly another 25%-30% from here. So if this gets worse, the bottom is closer to $70 than $100, in my opinion. I did buy a bit of the dip, but holding cash on the sidelines for now,” he advised.
Another commenter shared his thoughts on the stock's price, noting that he believes it will go lower: “If this gets in the high $80s, I will [buy]. Heck, I might start nibbling in the low $90s. I can't believe it, and it hurts to say, but this is going lower.”

Diversify Beyond Nvidia
Several commenters suggested alternative strategies, such as ETFs, options, and even other stocks, instead of going all-in on Nvidia.
“It's clear that GPU-based computing is the near-term (5-10 year) horizon, and NVDA is the most likely beneficiary of that future (though I have some AMD as a slight hedge). Those of you hoping for a quick flip are much more at risk,” a Redditor shared his two cents.
Suggesting that Nvidia should be a portion, not the entirety, of a portfolio, this commenter also said that the stock has a low chance of skyrocketing.
“It is very unlikely that this stock will be a 3, 4, 5 or 10 bagger. If taking the risk and perhaps making more than the market (15% a year) is your thing, then it could be a decent part of a portfolio,” he said.
“I use a covered call premium and puts to buy more shares. I will just keep acquiring for as low as it goes,” a commenter shared.
