10. Heska Corporation (NASDAQ:HSKA)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 14

Morgan Stanley lowered its ratings for Heska Corporation (NASDAQ:HSKA) from “Equal-Weight” to “Underweight” on Friday, January 6. Analyst Erin Wright thinks the company’s underperformance in 2022 will pose a risk to the current year’s growth.

Wright previously used the word “ambitious” for the company’s medium to long-term outlook. Besides the rating cut, she decreased her price target for Heska Corporation (NASDAQ:HSKA) from $135 per share to $58 per share.

Meanwhile, some of the problems faced by Heska Corporation (NASDAQ:HSKA) were also discussed by investment management firm Alger Capital in its third-quarter 2022 investor letter. Here’s what the firm said:

“Shares of Heska underperformed this quarter largely due to an industry-wide slowdown in the animal health market. The company reported lower than expected earnings results due to the recent weakness in vet visitation trends. Consequently, management lowered forward guidance given the difficult macroeconomic outlook. While near-term weakness is expected at this time, we believe the company remains well positioned to benefit from new product launches going into next year.”

9. Doximity, Inc. (NYSE:DOCS)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 19

Doximity, Inc. (NYSE:DOCS), an online networking service for healthcare professionals, went public in June 2021. The stock initially skyrocketed to a high of around $107 but has been losing value since then. It has lost more than 30 percent of its value in the last year alone, while its current trading price stands around $31.

The San Francisco based-company recently received a downgrade from Morgan Stanley. The research firm cut its ratings for Doximity, Inc. (NYSE:DOCS) from “Equal-Weight” to “Underweight” on Friday, January 6.

Citing her latest industry checks, analyst Ricky Goldwasser pointed towards a further slowdown in the healthcare digital ad space growth in the coming quarters. She also slashed her price target for Doximity, Inc. (NYSE:DOCS) from $32 per share to $29 per share.

8. XPeng Inc. (NYSE:XPEV)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 20

BofA lowered its ratings for XPeng Inc. (NYSE:XPEV) from “Buy” to “Neutral” on Friday, January 6. The downgrade came after rival Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) decreased the prices of its electric vehicles (EVs) in China.

The research firm believes the latest move from Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) could impact the sales and market share of Chinese rivals, including XPeng Inc. (NYSE:XPEV).

The decision from Tesla also indicates a potential demand problem, which is another reason behind the latest sell-off in Chinese EV stocks. XPeng Inc. (NYSE:XPEV) stock plummeted over 15 percent on Friday, January 6, following the development.

7. Duck Creek Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:DCT)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 21

Needham downgraded Duck Creek Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:DCT) after the insurance technology firm decided to be acquired by Vista Equity Partners. Needham cut its ratings for the Massachusetts-based company from “Buy” to “Hold” on January 9 following the news.

Vista plans to buy Duck Creek Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:DCT) in a cash transaction valued at $2.6 billion. The offer represented a hefty premium of 46 percent from the stock’s closing price on Friday, January 6.

Duck Creek Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:DCT) shares skyrocketed over 45 percent on Monday following the development. The deal, subject to shareholders’ consent, is expected to close in the second quarter.

Like Duck Creek Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:DCT), analysts also lowered their ratings for PayPal Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:PYPL), Bank of America Corporation (NYSE:BAC) and Constellation Brands, Inc. (NYSE:STZ).

6. Silvergate Capital Corporation (NYSE:SI)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 27

Silvergate Capital Corporation (NYSE:SI) shares have lost nearly 50 percent of their value over the last few days following a series of negative news and downgrades.

The crypto-focused bank recently announced disappointing preliminary results for the fourth quarter. Silvergate Capital Corporation (NYSE:SI) said the total deposits from digital asset clients stood at $3.8 billion at the end of Q4, a steep decline from $11.9 billion at the end of the prior quarter.

Meanwhile, Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest unloaded nearly all of its stakes in Silvergate Capital Corporation (NYSE:SI) following the latest sell off. The investment management firm sold about 0.43 million shares in the bank.

On top of that, Silvergate Capital Corporation (NYSE:SI) received a downgrade from a couple of research firms. Wedbush lowered its ratings for Silvergate from “Outperform” to “Neutral” on January 9, while Craig-Hallum cut its ratings from “Buy” to “Hold” on January 6.

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

Published on November 14, 2025 at by Inan Dogan, PhD

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:
