英伟达股价15%的跌幅掩盖了一个历史性买入信号
Xin Lang Cai Jing· 2026-03-16 15:04
MACD金叉信号形成,这些股涨势不错! 英伟达公司股价自2025年10月高点212.19美元已下跌15%,受到人工智能颠覆担忧、伊朗石油冲击和更 广泛市场焦虑等一系列因素的拖累。 但在抛售潮之下,可能隐藏着一个历史上曾回报过耐心投资者的买入信号——如果你能将这些线索联系 起来的话。 该信号来自摩根士丹利投资管理公司的高级投资组合经理安德鲁·斯利蒙,他最近发布了最新的股票评 论。 需要明确的是,斯利蒙没有点名英伟达。他的论点针对的是整个市场。但它与英伟达的关联度惊人。 选股的三重因素 斯利蒙追踪他称之为选股因素的"三重奏":动能、盈利修正和股票回购。 其中,盈利修正——即分析师上调公司盈利预测,股价随之上涨的模式——通常是未来回报最可靠的预 测指标之一。当华尔街上调某只股票的盈利预期时,其价格往往会同步上涨。 而现在,这种关系被打破了。盈利修正是今年迄今为止表现最差的因子之一。盈利预期被上调的公司并 未获得股价上涨的回报。 斯利蒙认为,原因是投资者过于关注宏观头条——伊朗问题、接近每桶100美元的油价、人工智能颠覆 恐慌、私人信贷压力——而忽视了单个公司的基本面。 斯利蒙追踪他称之为选股因素的"三重奏":动能、 ...
