. “History suggests NVDA could become 10-15% of S & P 500,” wrote chip analyst Mark Lipacis in a note Friday. “We have observed that at each successive computing era, the ecosystem players represent a larger weighting of the S & P 500.” Following a 200% surge over the past 12 months that’s pushed the AI darling’s market value above $3 trillion, Nvidia’s current weighting in the S & P 500 has grown to 6.6%, according to FactSet data.
