On CNBC’s “Halftime Report Final Trades,” Bryn Talkington of Requisite Capital made a strong case for Nvidia Corporation (NVDA) as her final trade. This recommendation comes after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang confirmed that the highly anticipated Blackwell chips are now in full production. During Wednesday’s appearance on CNBC’s Closing Bell Overtime, Huang emphasized the massive demand for these new chips, stating, “Blackwell is in full production, Blackwell is as planned, and the demand for Blackwell is insane. Everyone wants to have the most, and everyone wants to be first.”
Meanwhile, Kevin Simpson of Capital Wealth Planning opted for CME Group Inc. (CME). CME recently reported its third-quarter and September market statistics, showcasing record-breaking average daily volume with 28.3 million contracts in the third quarter and 28.4 million contracts in September.
Joshua Brown of Ritholtz Wealth Management picked The Trade Desk, Inc. (TTD) as his final trade. This selection follows Truist Securities analyst Youssef Squali’s recent move to maintain a Buy rating on The Trade Desk while boosting the price target from $108 to $120.
The market reacted positively to these recommendations, with NVIDIA shares climbing 3.4% to close at $122.85 on Thursday. CME shares also saw a slight increase, rising 0.3% to settle at $224.27. The Trade Desk shares mirrored this positive sentiment, gaining 2.5% to close at $111.46 on the same day.
