12 Tech Stocks with Low PE Ratios

Published on November 13, 2023 at 2:09 pm by Affan Mir in News, Quantitative Investing

In this article, we present 12 tech stocks with low PE ratios. To skip the detailed analysis of the technology sector, go directly to the 5 Tech Stocks with low PE ratios.

Technology stocks faced a heavy beat down in 2022 and were one of the worst-performing sectors of the year. Two of the US Big Five tech companies, Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) and Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) lost over $1.2 trillion in market cap. Similarly, the tech-heavy NASDAQ was down 33.1% by the end of the year.

The tech sector made a significant comeback in 2023, primarily due to the generative artificial intelligence (AI) trend that has been making waves since the beginning of 2023. As of November 9, the NASDAQ composite is up 30.18% year-to-date (YTD) compared to the S&P 500’s 13.68% gain. Additionally, all of the S&P 500’s gains have been on the back of the top 7 technology stocks including Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG), Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), Meta (NASDAQ:META), Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), and Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA). Between December 30, 2022, and October 31, 2023, these 7 stocks averaged collective gains of 50.65% while the rest of the S&P 493 declined by 2.05%.

Long-Term Global Tech Market Forecast

A DataTrek report predicts the average earnings estimate for the big seven tech stocks to be 0.7% for 2024 compared to -0.5% for the S&P 500. Jessica Rabe, co-founder of DataTrek, wrote:

“US big tech is in better fundamental shape than the broader U.S. equity market right now, which should enable these stocks to outperform and help drive the S&P higher into year-end, as long as rates remain stable or lower.”

We previously reported that global tech spending is expected to increase 4.7% year-over-year (YoY) in 2023 to $4.4 trillion. Between 2024 and 2027, the Middle East and Africa and Asia Pacific are expected to have the highest spending growth in the sector at 5.6% and 5.4%, respectively. North American tech spending is expected to increase by 5.1%, and Europe’s spending is expected to increase by 3.6% during the same period. Furthermore, blockchain technology is expected to experience the highest CAGR between 2023 and 2030, at nearly 138%. AI is expected to be the biggest industry in the tech sector, reaching a market size of $2.57 trillion by 2032, followed by autonomous systems with a market size of $2.35 trillion.

Despite such a bullish forecast for AI, UBS warned that AI stocks might see some correction due to investors moving toward other parts of the broader tech industry:

“For technology investors overall, we continue to see opportunities in tech laggards and mid-cycle industries like software and internet, as investors continue to reposition portfolios away from early cyclicals like semiconductors. We would not be surprised to see a 10–15% reset lower in AI-related stocks in the near term, given regulatory headwinds, supply bottlenecks, and elevated valuations. Investors with significant concentration in US technology should also consider opportunities in Europe and emerging market tech stocks. Many companies outside the US enjoy similar, if not better, medium- to longer-term growth profiles. And some trade at attractive valuations, in our view. We therefore think growth-based investors with a significant concentration in US tech stocks should rebalance their portfolios by diversifying into global tech stocks with solid business models.”

Most of the analysts and financial news media see the technology sector in a favorable light. Keeping that in mind, some of the tech stocks with a low price-to-earnings (PE) ratio include Nokia Oyj (NYSE:NOK), United Microelectronics Corporation (NYSE:UMC), and PagSeguro Digital Ltd. (NYSE:PAGS).

Will Technology Replace Human Labor?

There is a huge fear among the masses that technology, especially AI, will replace human labor, and many people will be out of jobs because of it. Nevertheless, these claims seem highly exaggerated, as discussed in our article, 16 Jobs That Will Disappear in the Future Due to AI. In 1900, 41% of the US workforce was employed in the agriculture sector, and it was down to 2% exactly a century later due to technological advancements in agricultural machinery. Despite such a decline in the agricultural workforce, new jobs were created with the rise of technological advancements. Similarly, AI will certainly take over a lot of jobs that require human labor, but it will also create several new jobs, and there are some that AI just won’t be able to replace for the foreseeable future.

12 Tech Stocks with low PE ratio

12. ON Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ:ON)

PE Ratio as of November 9: 12.97

ON Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ:ON) is an Arizona-based company that designs, manufactures, and supplies semiconductors and related solutions. The company runs 19 manufacturing sites, 43 design centers, and 8 solution engineering centers in various countries.

On October 31, Deutsche Bank analyst Ross Seymore lowered the price target on ON Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ:ON) stock to $90 from $120 and maintained a Buy rating. While the analyst mentioned that the company is feeling macro pressures, the firm says that the “post-earnings pullback” presents a “buying opportunity”.

On October 31, ON Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ:ON) released Q3 earnings results with a non-GAAP EPS of $1.39, which beat the analysts’ estimates by $0.05. The revenue of $2.18 billion surpassed the estimates by $30 million.

Aristotle Atlantic Partners, LLC mentioned ON Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ:ON) in its first quarter 2023 investor letter. Here is what it said:

“ON Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ:ON) supplies analog, standard logic and discrete semiconductors for data and power management. The company provides industry leading intelligent sensing and power solutions to help its customers solve the most challenging problems and create cutting edge products for a better future. Its extensive portfolio of sensors, power management, connectivity, custom and SoC, analog, logic, timing and discrete devices helps customers efficiently solve design challenges in advanced electronic systems and products.

11. Concentrix Corporation (NASDAQ:CNXC)

PE Ratio as of November 9: 12.12

Concentrix Corporation (NASDAQ:CNXC) was mentioned in First Pacific Advisors’ second quarter 2023 investor letter. Here is what it said:

“Concentrix Corporation (NASDAQ:CNXC) is one of the top two customer experience (CX) vendors globally. The company started off running call centers but has evolved into a high-tech business process outsourcer (BPO) that also designs and runs customer-facing websites and apps, integrates all the data and optimizes a client’s customer interactions. CX itself is a relatively new business and Concentrix has been rolling up smaller competitors – in March, 2023 they bought WebHelp, a leading European CX player for cash and stock.

We believe this should help consolidate an industry where Concentrix and Teleperformance are the largest players. Concentrix was spun out of TD Synnex, another of the Fund’s core holdings, and we have always been impressed with the company’s innovation and growth. The market is currently worried about the ability for artificial intelligence to disrupt Concentrix’ core call center business and the shares of all of the large CX companies have underperformed materially.”

AI, Tariffs, Nuclear Power: One Undervalued Stock Connects ALL the Dots (Before It Explodes!)

Published on June 23, 2025 at by Inan Dogan, PhD

Artificial intelligence is the greatest investment opportunity of our lifetime. The time to invest in groundbreaking AI is now, and this stock is a steal!

AI is eating the world—and the machines behind it are ravenous.

Each ChatGPT query, each model update, each robotic breakthrough consumes massive amounts of energy. In fact, AI is already pushing global power grids to the brink.

Wall Street is pouring hundreds of billions into artificial intelligence—training smarter chatbots, automating industries, and building the digital future. But there’s one urgent question few are asking:

Where will all of that energy come from?

AI is the most electricity-hungry technology ever invented. Each data center powering large language models like ChatGPT consumes as much energy as a small city. And it’s about to get worse.

Even Sam Altman, the founder of OpenAI, issued a stark warning:

“The future of AI depends on an energy breakthrough.”

Elon Musk was even more blunt:

“AI will run out of electricity by next year.”

As the world chases faster, smarter machines, a hidden crisis is emerging behind the scenes. Power grids are strained. Electricity prices are rising. Utilities are scrambling to expand capacity.

And that’s where the real opportunity lies…

One little-known company—almost entirely overlooked by most AI investors—could be the ultimate backdoor play. It’s not a chipmaker. It’s not a cloud platform. But it might be the most important AI stock in the US owns critical energy infrastructure assets positioned to feed the coming AI energy spike.

As demand from AI data centers explodes, this company is gearing up to profit from the most valuable commodity in the digital age: electricity.

The “Toll Booth” Operator of the AI Energy Boom

It owns critical nuclear energy infrastructure assets, positioning it at the heart of America’s next-generation power strategy.
It’s one of the only global companies capable of executing large-scale, complex EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) projects across oil, gas, renewable fuels, and industrial infrastructure.
It plays a pivotal role in U.S. LNG exportation—a sector about to explode under President Trump’s renewed “America First” energy doctrine.

Trump has made it clear: Europe and U.S. allies must buy American LNG.

And our company sits in the toll booth—collecting fees on every drop exported.

But that’s not all…

As Trump’s proposed tariffs push American manufacturers to bring their operations back home, this company will be first in line to rebuild, retrofit, and reengineer those facilities.

AI. Energy. Tariffs. Onshoring. This One Company Ties It All Together.

While the world is distracted by flashy AI tickers, a few smart investors are quietly scooping up shares of the one company powering it all from behind the scenes.

AI needs energy. Energy needs infrastructure.

And infrastructure needs a builder with experience, scale, and execution.

This company has its finger in every pie—and Wall Street is just starting to notice.

Wall Street is noticing this company also because it is quietly riding all of these tailwinds—without the sky-high valuation.

While most energy and utility firms are buried under mountains of debt and coughing up hefty interest payments just to appease bondholders…

This company is completely debt-free.

In fact, it’s sitting on a war chest of cash—equal to nearly one-third of its entire market cap.

It also owns a huge equity stake in another red-hot AI play, giving investors indirect exposure to multiple AI growth engines without paying a premium.

And here’s what the smart money has started whispering…

The Hedge Fund Secret That’s Starting to Leak Out

This stock is so off-the-radar, so absurdly undervalued, that some of the most secretive hedge fund managers in the world have begun pitching it at closed-door investment summits.

They’re sharing it quietly, away from the cameras, to rooms full of ultra-wealthy clients.

Why? Because excluding cash and investments, this company is trading at less than 7 times earnings.

And that’s for a business tied to:

The AI infrastructure supercycle
The onshoring boom driven by Trump-era tariffs
A surge in U.S. LNG exports
And a unique footprint in nuclear energy—the future of clean, reliable power

You simply won’t find another AI and energy stock this cheap… with this much upside.

This isn’t a hype stock. It’s not riding on hope.

It’s delivering real cash flows, owns critical infrastructure, and holds stakes in other major growth stories.

This is your chance to get in before the rockets take off!

Disruption is the New Name of the Game: Let’s face it, complacency breeds stagnation.

AI is the ultimate disruptor, and it’s shaking the foundations of traditional industries.

The companies that embrace AI will thrive, while the dinosaurs clinging to outdated methods will be left in the dust.

As an investor, you want to be on the side of the winners, and AI is the winning ticket.

The Talent Pool is Overflowing: The world’s brightest minds are flocking to AI.

From computer scientists to mathematicians, the next generation of innovators is pouring its energy into this field.

This influx of talent guarantees a constant stream of groundbreaking ideas and rapid advancements.

By investing in AI, you’re essentially backing the future.

The future is powered by artificial intelligence, and the time to invest is NOW.

Don’t be a spectator in this technological revolution.
