Nvidia (NVDA) shares gained over 6% Tuesday as Goldman Sachs strategist Scott Rubner called it the "most important stock" of the year.
Rubner suggested the chipmaker's earnings later in the month and the Federal Reserve's Jackson Hole Economic Symposium could herald a rally for the stock market.
Nvidia reports earnings on Aug. 28, with the strategist expecting an earnings-fueled post-market move could potentially mark "the technical low for the largest index weights and AI darlings," ahead of a September rally.
Rubner said the market could be poised for a Labor Day rally, leaving "a short term window to buy the dip as technical pressure eases."
However, the Goldman strategist warned investors could face a "tricky" second half of September ahead of the U.S. presidential election before welcoming new highs in the fourth quarter.
Nvidia shares closed 6.5% higher at $116.14 Tuesday, helping make up for recent losses. With Tuesday's gains, the stock has more than doubled in value since the start of the year.

They say that parenting is the greatest — and the most challenging — job that many of us will ever land. Life can be tough for kids too, especially when they go through emotionally trying times.
What can parents do to help their kids manage episodes of anger, sadness, or anxiety triggered by school, siblings, and daily living? Whether you are a parent to an elementary-age child, a tweener ages 8 to 12, or a teenager, practicing two skills can help both you and your child: validation and coping.
Practicing validation
Validation teaches your children that feeling and expressing their emotions is okay.
"When parents use validation, they are affirming to their child that it's fine to feel emotions and they should not be suppressed," says Dr. Chase Samsel with the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Harvard-affiliated Boston Children's Hospital. "It shows them you understand their feelings and point of view, and it establishes trust. This, in turn, can help a child feel supported and open to discussing solutions."
Start with acknowledgement
Acknowledge their emotions with comments like, "It sounds like you are frustrated or angry," or "I can see that you've had a tough day at school."
But which emotion — or emotions — is your child feeling? "It can be difficult for parents to recognize the genuine emotion their child is battling," says Dr. Samsel. "Many times, kids have an emotional reaction but can't explain what's going on, or don't want to, or express various emotions at once."
Other times, different emotions lie underneath the one being shown. This is especially common among teenagers where they display anger, but often the real emotion is fear, anxiety, or sadness. "In these incidences, just recognizing they are going through something difficult is enough," says Dr. Samsel.
Practice validation often
A child may not respond to validation at first — they may not want to talk about their emotions or may ignore your interest. But consistent validation will eventually pay off.
"By repeating validation when emotional crises arise, the child soon will become more comfortable expressing their emotion," says Dr. Samsel. "Once they recognize that their parents welcome this and will not be reprimanded, they will be open to sharing details."
Building a coping skills toolbox
Coping skills are ways parents can teach their children to manage emotional problems when they arise.
Try a breathing exercise together
Breathing exercises are a popular strategy, as they are easy to learn and quick to use. Dr. Samsel recommends any of the following: three-part breathing, ujjayi breathing, and belly breathing.
Other coping skills include guided meditation, visualization, squeezing a ball for stress relief, taking a walk or playing outside, and reading together (ideal for preschool and elementary-age children).
"Sometimes just giving children alone time in their room or "taking space" works well," says Dr. Samsel.
Tap into coping skills yourself
It's also vital for parents to adopt these strategies when dealing with their own emotions, says Dr. Samsel. Not only will this help you feel calmer, but it's a great way to model that coping skills help everyone — adults, too!
For example, try telling your kids when you feel upset or frustrated about something that happens during your day. Announce that you plan to take a walk to de-stress or do a breathing exercise. Later, share your strategies for problem-solving.
"Kids watch what their parents do and will often mimic their behavior," says Dr. Samsel. "If they see you constructively working through your emotions, they will be more open to doing the same."
Be flexible
Never insist on having older kids use a coping mechanism, even when situations call for it. That could feel like punishment and trigger an automatic resistance.
Instead, Dr. Samsel suggests parents expose their children to different types of coping skills and then let them decide which ones they want to try. "They may need to experiment to find techniques they can easily follow and that work for them," says Dr. Samsel.

Activist Aisha Yesufu has reacted to a proposed bill seeking 10-year prison sentence and N5million fine for those who refuse to recite national anthem.
She said, she will choose 20 years in prison than sing the national anthem.

Tuesday's news that Chipotle (CMG) CEO Brian Niccol is leaving to take the same role at Starbucks (SBUX) sent the companies' stocks in opposite directions. It also led analysts to reevaluate the companies, with Baird's David Tarantino upgrading Starbucks and lowering Chipotle's price target.
Tarantino upgraded Starbucks to "outperform" from "neutral," raising the coffee giant's price target to $110 from $81. He also lowered his price target for Chipotle stock to $62 from $74, maintaining an "outperform" rating on the fast casual chain.
Starbucks stock soared more than 24% Tuesday, nearly erasing all of the stock's losses since the start of the year. Chipotle stock sank more than 7%.
"While we acknowledge that near-term results could remain challenged as the company navigates a difficult economy, we now expect sentiment on SBUX to be positive as investors anticipate better fundamentals for the company to emerge over the next 12+ months," Tarantino wrote Tuesday.
Tarantino said the news is likely to weigh on Chipotle in the near term as the chain loses an "exceptional executive" who has been a "key factor" in the company's success over the last several years. But the news likely won't mark the end of Chipotle's growth story, he wrote, as it still has an executive team with the "skills and expertise" to continue Chipotle's "good operating momentum."
Other analysts shared similar thoughts Tuesday. Raymond James analyst Brian Vaccaro said Chipotle's downward stock move is typical of the "knee-jerk reaction" when a "rock star executive" leaves, but could also create an "attractive buying opportunity" as other factors of Chipotle's positive momentum remain intact.
