specifically talking desktop gpus.en a volatile run, stock is down 5% after seeing a gain for more than 200% in 2016. so should investors stay clear or buy this dip, dan? >> i don't think there is any reason to buy, you have a big gap down for fundamental am reasons that have previously not been identified. i think before when this stock has been downgraded, it's been on valuation. so i think you probably see this thing. it just broke that 100 day moving average. another pont i saw, which is a fundamentalal headline, you saw the news that apple is going to be creating their own gpus for desktop computers and devices to be named. so at the end of the day, there will be competition in this sector. look at the gains they have had for a lot of the same reasons that nvidia had such a tear. to me i don't think you touch it here, maybe $80 bucks. >> would you rather? nvidia or md? >> right now, i say md. >> that stock made a huge move, $7 to 14.5? that range. one of the things the analysts talked about is the margin crashers
