In this article, we will take a look at the 15 Best Strong Buy Tech Stocks to Invest In.
With the help of massive platforms and a growing surge of AI-driven investment, the American tech industry entered 2026 with size and momentum. In 2024, American companies received about $178 billion, or 57% of global venture capital, with $90 billion of those funds concentrated in the San Francisco Bay Area alone. In 2024, about $314 billion was raised for startups, which is 3% more than in 2023. This points towards a robust recovery in late-stage investments in infrastructure and AI.
AI‑focused startups alone accounted for 37% of all venture funding and 17% of deals in 2024, with multiple billion‑dollar rounds to infrastructure players such as xAI, CoreWeave, and Scale AI, underscoring a capital shift toward compute, model training, and applied AI layers.
On the enterprise side, the U.S. software‑as‑a‑service market generated about $140.7 billion of revenue in 2024 and is projected to almost double to $271.7 billion by 2030, implying a compound annual growth rate near 11% from 2025 to 2030.
Revenue expansion and mix shifts at large platforms show a similar pattern: Apple’s services segment is expected to grow from about $96.17 billion in 2024 to more than $120 billion in 2026, while Meta’s consensus 2025 capital expenditures are now projected at roughly $72.22 billion, largely to fund AI‑oriented servers and data centers.
With this being said, let’s take a look at the best Strong Buy tech stocks to invest in.

Our Methodology
For our methodology, we began by filtering tech stocks that have a consensus Strong Buy rating and have a market cap over $2 billion and a positive analyst upside of at least 20% or more as of Feb 4. From this list, we selected the top 15 best stocks and ranked them in ascending order based on their total number of hedge fund holders as of Q3 2025, as tracked by Insider Monkey database. In cases where stocks had the same number of HF holdings, we used their analyst upsides to break the tie between them.
Why are we interested in the stocks that hedge funds pile into? The reason is simple: our research has shown that we can outperform the market by imitating the top stock picks of the best hedge funds.
