Valuation spread getting weird between $NVDA and $AAPL. Whether you're looking at 2027 or 2028 estimates, the gap is starting to look stretched.
Pair trade idea: Long $NVDA / Short $AAPL at current levels?
The setup: $NVDA trading at what looks like a discount relative to $AAPL when you factor in growth rates and AI exposure. $AAPL's premium feels extended while $NVDA's multiple compression might be overdone given the AI infrastructure buildout that's still early innings.
Risk: You're betting on mean reversion in relative valuations. If $AAPL rips on Services strength or China recovery, this hurts. If $NVDA sees another data center spending scare, this hurts worse.
But if you believe $NVDA's AI dominance justifies tighter valuation parity with $AAPL, or that $AAPL's growth premium is too fat, this pair makes sense. Market-neutral play on relative value.
Not for the faint of heart. You need conviction on both legs and tight risk management. One name can blow out while the other sits dead.
