Radware Ltd. (RDWR) Reports Q4 Growth, Expands AI-Enabled Cloud Security

We recently published a list of Top 10 Trending AI News Updates And Analyst Ratings. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Radware Ltd. (NASDAQ:RDWR) stands against other top trending AI news updates and analyst ratings.

The US AI industry is witnessing a wave of new developments led by Elon Musk’s $97 billion bid to takeover OpenAI, the same company he co-founded with Sam Altman. The OpenAI CEO rejected that offer and added that Musk is acting out of insecurity rather than genuine interest.

The engagement got interesting when Altman counteroffered to buy X.com for $9.74 billion. The clash between the two AI leaders is ongoing amid a broader power struggle over the future of AI.

In his recent blog post, Altman highlighted three observations about the economics of AI: “The intelligence of an AI model roughly equals the log of the resources used to train and run it; the cost to use a given level of AI falls about 10x every 12 months, and lower prices lead to much more use; and that the socioeconomic value of linearly increasing intelligence is exponential.

“If these three observations continue to hold true, the impacts on society will be significant,” noted Altman. “We are now starting to roll out AI agents, which will eventually feel like virtual co-workers.”

Elsewhere, the UK and the US didn’t sign an international agreement on AI at the Paris Global Summit. The US agreement, which pledges an open, inclusive, and ethical approach to AI development, was signed by dozens of countries, including France and China.

The UK government cited concerns around national security, while US VP JD Vance told delegates in Paris earlier that excessive regulation of AI could hamper a transformative industry, which is just taking off.

We selected AI stocks by reviewing news articles, stock analysis, and press releases. We listed the stocks in ascending order of their hedge fund sentiment taken from Insider Monkey’s database of 900 hedge funds.

The company’s “EPIC-AI” tech incorporates layers of AI capabilities across its product suite to secure applications and optimize overheads.

On February 12th, Radware Ltd. (NASDAQ:RDWR) reported earnings for the fiscal fourth quarter and full year 2024. The company’s revenue for Q4 amounted to $73 million and its full-year revenue was $274.9 million. The company’s GAAP net income was logged at $2.5 million, or $0.06 per share on a diluted basis.

“Our full-year results were driven by accelerated cloud ARR growth of 19%, the success of our DefensePro X DDoS protection refresh, and strong performance from our OEM partnerships,” said CEO Roy Zisapel. “Looking ahead, we plan to increase investment in and accelerate our cloud security growth by further expanding our market-leading AI-enabled security capabilities, opening new cloud security service centers and expanding our cloud channels.”

Overall, RDWR ranks 5th on our list of top trending AI news updates and analyst ratings. While we acknowledge the potential of RDWR as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and doing so within a shorter timeframe.

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…
