Fear of missing out, or FOMO, can be a powerful inducement for investors, particularly in the volatile world of cryptocurrency. On Wednesday, the emotion helped push the world's most popular digital coin to price levels it hasn't seen in years. As is often the case, on the back of that increase, a large number of altcoins followed suit, with more than a few rising at a double-digit percentage.

From the introduction of new crypto-based investment vehicles to the upcoming halving of Bitcoin-mining rewards , many forces have combined to thaw the latest crypto winter. But not every cryptocurrency has been invited to the party yet, even if their growth prospects look at least as promising as Bitcoin's or Ethereum's.

Investors in Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ: RIVN) suffered staggering losses last week after the maker of electric trucks, vans, and SUVs reported mixed earnings Wednesday. The news wasn't all bad. For one thing, Rivian reported sales ahead of analyst targets at $1.32 billion, and its earnings weren't much worse than expected at $1.36 per share. However, management told investors that Rivian will only produce 57,000 electric vehicles in 2024 -- about as many as it produced in 2023.

Supply chain disruptions didn't help that situation. It also had well-publicized theft issues that led it to actually close several stores. That all resulted in lower profitability, and investors bailed out of Target stock.

This was the case when an Nvidia filing revealed a $3.7 million position in SoundHound AI (NASDAQ: SOUN). As you can see, the stock shot up overnight. For perspective, SoundHound has a market cap of around $1 billion, so this investment is well under 1% of its market cap and almost nothing to Nvidia's nearly $2 trillion market cap.
