Nvidia's stock has crashed so hard that it's cheaper than it was before the AI boom started, even though the company is making record money. Meanwhile, traders are already starting to bet on a rebound.

## Idea

News that Nvidia's next-gen server system is delayed has scared investors, sending the stock down roughly $1 trillion in value over two months. But this creates an opportunity: the company's valuation has fallen back to pre-AI boom levels despite bringing in record revenue. The market may have overreacted to the delay, as traders are already starting to buy the dip while the rest of the chip sector falls. A bounce-back play catches this overshoot.
