On Monday, China launched an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/12/42389113/nvidia-hit-with-antitrust-probe-in-china-stock-slides">antitrust investigation</a> into Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>). However, a top analyst maintains that the case may go unresolved.
What Happened: The investigation, reported by Chinese state media, centers on Nvidia's acquisition of Israeli networking company Mellanox Technologies, approved in 2020, and its potential violations of China's anti-monopoly laws.
Authorities are examining whether Nvidia bundling its AI chips with Mellanox's NVLink technology limits competition and whether the company provides lower-performance solutions to Chinese customers.
In a blog post, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of TF Securities noted the geopolitical implications, suggesting the investigation could give China leverage amid <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/us-china-relations-0">U.S.-China tensions</a>.
"This case may remain unresolved in the near term," he said, predicting the probe could follow historical precedents, such as Qualcomm's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) 15-month antitrust investigation in China.

China accounts for only 5% of Nvidia's data center revenue. Kuo believes the financial impact on the company will likely be limited in the short term but warned of future investigations.
"Investors should be prepared for potential scenarios where Nvidia's practices, including CUDA, come under further examination," he said.
Compute Unified Device Architecture is a parallel computing platform and API by Nvidia that enables developers to use GPUs for general-purpose computing with accessible programming tools and languages like C, C++, and Python.

Why It Matters: This development coincides with President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s ongoing suggestions of imposing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42367505/economists-warn-trumps-tariffs-on-canada-mexico-and-china-could-hurt-your-budget-more-than-help-it">higher tariffs on Chinese imports</a> — a move that typically shifts the financial burden onto domestic consumers through increased prices.
Technology experts appeared to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/12/42393702/chinese-antitrust-investigation-into-nvidia-all-speculative-tech-expert">minimize the significance</a> of Chinese regulators&#8217; investigation into Nvidia.
For instance, analyst Patrick Moorhead noted that the investigation into Nvidia was unsurprising, given its dominant over 90% market share in a critical industry. Daniel Newman called the allegations speculative. Angela Zhang, a USC law professor suggested that China could be leveraging antitrust law as a tool against U.S. sanctions.
Nvidia is the world's leading provider of AI chips, with a market cap of $3.399 trillion, making it the most valuable company worldwide after Apple Inc.
Last month, Nvidia posted <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/42099904/nvidia-beats-q3-revenue-eps-estimates-supply-constraints-ding-stock-huang-says-age-of-ai-is-in-full-steam">third-quarter revenue</a> of $35.1 billion, a 94% increase year-over-year, surpassing the Street consensus estimate of $33.12 billion.
Price Action: Nvidia&#8217;s stock fell 2.55% on Monday, closing at $138.81, with an additional 0.63% decline in after-hours trading. Despite this, Nvidia shares have skyrocketed 188.17% year-to-date, significantly outperforming the Nasdaq 100 index&#8217;s 29.6% gain over the same period, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
The consensus price target for Nvidia, based on assessments from 40 analysts, is $170.56, with Rosenblatt projecting the highest target at $220 as of Nov. 21. Latest ratings from DA Davidson, Phillip Securities, and Truist Securities average $154.67, suggesting a potential upside of 12.13%.

Nvidia China Antitrust Probe May 'Remain Unsolved' In Near Term Says Top Analyst; Investors Should Be Prepared For Increased Scrutiny

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) could see significant growth from a new budget electric vehicle offering, according to prominent investor Gary Black, who <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42391708/tesla-to-370-here-are-10-top-analyst-forecasts-for-monday">raised his price target for the EV maker</a> by 27% to $380 from $300 on Monday.
What Happened: Black, Managing Partner at The Future Fund LLC, attributes his &#8220;increased conviction&#8221; to expectations that Tesla will launch a $25,000-$30,000 hatchback model, potentially capturing approximately 15% of the global compact car market.
His revised earnings estimates surpass Wall Street consensus, projecting adjusted earnings per share of $3.80 for 2025 and $17.00 by 2030.
The investment thesis comes amid Black&#8217;s recent portfolio adjustments. In November, his fund trimmed its Tesla position at $351 after the stock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/11/42159444/gary-black-defends-tesla-trim-at-351-no-one-ever-went-broke-by-taking-profits-amid-stocks-150-surge">surged 150% from April lows</a>. The Future Fund&#8217;s Tesla investment strategy has proved profitable, with an average purchase price of $162 and a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41870590/tesla-remains-core-for-gary-black-despite-price-cuts-earnings-drop-nvidia-google-eli-lilly-among-top-performers-in-tech-bulls-portfolio">selling price of $252 since early 2023</a>.
Tesla ranks among the top five positions for The Future Fund Active ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FFND#NYSE">FFND</a>).

What Happened: Black identified several potential catalysts for Tesla, including continued EV adoption growth of 20-25% annually, increased Full Self-Driving adoption, and possible autonomous driving license streamlining under President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s administration. 
However, he also noted key risks, including the potential elimination of the $7,500 EV tax credit and regulatory challenges for autonomous driving features.
The revised target reflects Black&#8217;s confidence in Tesla&#8217;s long-term growth, using a PEG ratio of 1.75x and projected long-term EPS growth of 25%. Despite his optimistic outlook, Black recently expressed caution about Tesla&#8217;s current valuation, noting that the stock&#8217;s 50% rise since November&#8217;s election has been driven primarily by P/E expansion <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42377001/analyst-says-he-is-very-bullish-but-cautious-about-teslas-stock-rally-notes-eps-revisions-have-not-kept-pace-with-stock-price-since-trumps-victory">rather than earnings estimate revisions</a>.
Price Action: Tesla closed at $389.79 on Monday, up 0.15% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock rose further to $392.35, gaining an additional 0.66%. Year to date, Tesla shares have surged by 56.91%.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSLA/analyst-ratings">data from Benzinga Pro</a>, Tesla has a consensus price target of $251.06 from 34 analysts, ranging from a high of $411 to a low of $24.86. The latest ratings from Deutsche Bank, Guggenheim, and BofA Securities average $315, implying a 19.71% downside.
