Looking ahead, fourth-quarter revenue is expected to range between $3.345 billion and $3.355 billion. This will translate to an EPS of $0.96 to $0.98. This guidance suggests that full-year 2026 revenue could be $11.415 billion to $11.425 billion and non-GAAP EPS of $5. The growth is expected to come from the company’s Next Generation Security segment, and the company aims to use its recent acquisitions to strengthen its product portfolio.

4. Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:DELL)

One-month stock performance: 30.84%

On June 11, Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:DELL), along with its affiliates Dell International L.L.C. and EMC Corporation, announced plans to issue $3 billion in senior unsecured notes. The offering consists of three tranches maturing in 2031, 2034, and 2037, carrying interest rates of 4.750%, 5.000%, and 5.250%, respectively. The notes are jointly guaranteed by Dell Technologies, Dell Inc., and Denali Intermediate Inc. and were priced slightly below face value. The company plans to use the proceeds for general corporate purposes, including the possible repayment of existing debt. This supports its ongoing balance sheet and capital structure management.

Earlier, on June 9, Goldman Sachs raised its long-term outlook for both the AI and traditional server markets, citing continued strong demand for artificial intelligence. The firm now expects the AI server market to reach $1.24 trillion by 2030, up from its previous forecast of $961 billion. The revised outlook came after HP Enterprise (NYSE:HPE) and Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:DELL) reported solid quarterly results and increased their guidance. DELL gained market share in both the AI and traditional server markets, driven by the neo-cloud providers and enterprise customers.

Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:DELL) is a global technology company that develops and sells laptops, personal computers, networking equipment, servers, data storage systems, and related software and services. The company operates through the Client Solutions Group (CSG) and Infrastructure Solutions Group (ISG) segments.

3. Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRVL)

One-month stock performance: 34.26%

During the last few trading sessions, Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRVL) has seen positive momentum. On June 14, Rick Schafer from Oppenheimer reaffirmed a Buy rating on Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRVL) stock and set a target price of $250. Two days before this, Stifel Nicolaus analyst Tore Svanberg set a price target of $321 and also maintained a Buy rating on the stock. Analysts believe sector-wide tailwinds will trigger the upside in MRVL stock.

On May 27, MRVL provided optimistic guidance for Q2 fiscal 2027. It raised its revenue guidance to $2.598 billion. This translates to an EPS of $0.19. The semiconductor company guided for $3 billion in Q3 revenue, anticipating continued growth in its data center segment and a significant contribution from its custom silicon business to future revenue. In addition, the company now expects revenue to grow approximately 45% YoY in fiscal 2028 to $16.5 billion, which is around $1.5  billion higher than the earlier outlook.

Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRVL) develops semiconductor solutions for data infrastructure, including custom silicon, optical connectivity, data center switching, storage, security, Ethernet, and cloud networking products.

2. Okta Inc. (NASDAQ:OKTA)

One-month stock performance: 38.86%

During the last few trading sessions, Okta Inc. (NASDAQ:OKTA) has seen positive momentum. On June 9, UBS analyst Roger Boyd raised the firm’s target price on Okta Inc. (NASDAQ:OKTA) to $150 from $115 and maintained a Buy rating. The upward price target revision reflects a 20% upside from current levels.

On a more bearish note, Mizuho analyst Gregg Moskowitz downgraded Okta Inc. (NASDAQ:OKTA) to Neutral from an Outperform rating but raised his price target to $125 from $110 on June 2. The stark difference in price targets suggests how uncertain the environment is for software stocks at the moment. The analyst believes that while the company could benefit from the growth of agentic AI, much of that potential upside is already reflected in the stock price. As a result, the firm remains doubtful that OKTA can significantly accelerate its growth in the near- to medium-term. On a positive front, the analyst told investors in a research note that Okta Inc. (NASDAQ:OKTA) shares rose sharply by 67% YTD.

Okta Inc. (NASDAQ:OKTA) is an identity and access management company operating in the United States and around the world. The company offers Single Sign-on,  Adaptive MFA, API Access Management, Access Gateway, Okta Device Access, and Universal Directory. It was founded in 2009 and is based in San Francisco, California.

1. Snowflake Inc. (NYSE:SNOW)

One-month stock performance: 42.05%

On June 9, Wells Fargo analyst Ryan MacWilliams raised the firm’s target price on Snowflake Inc. (NYSE:SNOW) to $320 from $300 and assigned a Buy rating to the stock. The upward price target revision reflects a 28% upside from current levels. In addition to Wells Fargo, two other analysts reaffirmed their Buy ratings on the stock in the first week of June. This includes Stifel Nicolaus and Bank of America Securities.

On June 2, at Snowflake Summit 26, the company highlighted the benefits of its partnership with Anthropic, which was announced in December 2025. It noted that the collaboration was increasing enterprise adoption of Claude through Snowflake Cortex AI. Christian Kleinerman, Snowflake’s EVP of Product, believed that the growing adoption of Claude by companies reflects increasing demand for AI tools. As a result, the company sees strong customer interest across its AI products, with Snowflake Cortex Code becoming the fastest-growing product in Snowflake’s history.

The AI tailwind has resulted in Snowflake’s Cortex Code having more than 7,100 users. Moreover, major enterprises are adopting the company’s AI solutions, including Basis, Block, Caravana, eSentire, Indeed, and Notion.

Steve Corfield, Head of Global Business Development & Partnership at Anthropic, remarked,

Snowflake brings the governed data environment enterprises already rely on, and Claude brings the reasoning to put that data to work. Together we’re making it easy for organizations to use trusted AI on their most critical business data.

Snowflake Inc. (NYSE:SNOW) provides a cloud-based data platform that helps organizations store, manage, and share data across multiple public clouds. Its platform, called the Snowflake Data Cloud, supports diverse workloads including data engineering, analytics, machine learning, and secure collaboration.

While we acknowledge the potential of SNOW to grow, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than SNOW and that has 100x upside potential, check out our report about the cheapest AI stock.

The $250 Trillion AI Hype is Real. A few years from now, you’ll probably wish you’d bought this stock.

When Jeff Bezos said that one breakthrough technology would shape Amazon’s destiny, even Wall Street’s biggest analysts were caught off guard.

Fast forward a year and Amazon’s new CEO Andy Jassy described generative AI as a “once-in-a-lifetime” technology that is already being used across Amazon to reinvent customer experiences.

At the 8th Future Investment Initiative conference, Elon Musk predicted that by 2040 there would be at least 10 billion humanoid robots, with each priced between $20,000 and $25,000.

Do the math. According to Musk, this technology could be worth $250 trillion by 2040.

Put another way, that’s roughly equal to:

  • 175 Teslas
  • 107 Amazons
  • 140 Metas
  • 84 Googles
  • 65 Microsofts
  • And 55 Nvidias

And here’s the wild part — this $250 trillion wave isn’t tied to one company, but to an entire ecosystem of AI innovators set to reshape the global economy.

It’s a leap so massive, it could reshape how businesses, governments, and consumers operate worldwide.

Even if that $250 trillion figure sounds ambitious, major firms like PwC and McKinsey still see AI unlocking multi-trillion-dollar potential.

How could anything be worth that much?

The answer lies in a breakthrough so powerful it’s redefining how humanity works, learns, and creates.

And this breakthrough has already set off a frenzy among hedge funds and Wall Street’s top investors.

What most investors don’t realize is that one under-owned company holds the key to this $250 trillion revolution.

In fact, Verge argues this company’s supercheap AI technology should concern rivals.

Before I reveal the details, let’s talk about how some of the richest people on the planet are positioning themselves.

  • Bill Gates sees artificial intelligence as the “biggest technological advance in my lifetime,” more transformative than the internet or personal computer, capable of improving healthcare, education, and addressing climate change.
  • Larry Ellison — through Oracle, is spending billions on Nvidia chips and partnering with Cohere to embed generative AI across Oracle’s cloud and apps.
  • Warren Buffett — not known for tech hype — says this breakthrough could have a ‘hugely beneficial social impact.

When billionaires from Silicon Valley to Wall Street line up behind the same idea — you know it’s worth paying attention to.

Even as we admire what Tesla, Nvidia, Alphabet, and Microsoft have built, we believe an even greater opportunity lies elsewhere…

But the real story isn’t Nvidia — it’s a much smaller company quietly improving the critical technology that makes this entire revolution possible.

And judging by what I’m hearing from both Silicon Valley insiders and Wall Street veterans…

This prediction might not be bold at all:

A few years from now, you’ll wish you’d owned this stock.

The best part? You can discover everything about this company and its groundbreaking technology right now.

I’ve compiled everything you need to know about this groundbreaking company in a detailed, members-only report.

Buy This $3 Stock Now Before the 400% Surge Begins

My name is Inan Dogan. I’m the co-founder and Research Director of Insider Monkey. I have an important message for you today.

Since March 2017, my stock picks have returned 16.5% annually. Today, I’ve found an opportunity even bigger than my British American Tobacco call.

Two years ago, Wall Street wrote off British American Tobacco (BTI) as a “melting ice cube.” The stock had crashed 40% from its peak, and consensus said the business was dying.

We looked under the cover and realized they were wrong.

We alerted our subscribers, and BTI returned 90% in just 16 months.

Now if you had invested just $10,000 in BTI in June 2024, you’d be sitting on $19,000 in October 2025.

Today, we have identified a nearly identical pattern in a digital-first giant trading at $3.

While the market panics over a surface-level revenue decline, our PhD-led research shows management has actually surgically cut $100 million in waste to focus on high-margin growth.

This pattern is a hallmark of our 16.5% annual return track record. The current opportunity offers a 400% upside potential—dwarfing even our 90% BTI return.

Get the ticker for our new “Underdog” pick and the full BTI case study for just 99 cents.
