US stocks edged lower Thursday, snapping a rebound that had lifted the S&P 500 1.3% a day earlier. The S&P 500 fell 0.35% to 7,592.40, the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 0.36% to 52,297.09, and the Nasdaq Composite lost 0.39% to 25,366.09, Yahoo Finance reported, as bond yields rose. Traders weighed hot inflation data, the Federal Reserve’s next move and higher oil prices.

Hot Inflation Keeps the Fed in Focus

The week’s moves have been shaped by interest rates. Tuesday’s hotter-than-expected inflation report convinced traders that the Federal Reserve will raise rates next month, Reuters said. According to CME FedWatch, investors fully price in a hike of at least 25 basis points, with a 13.2% chance of a 50-basis-point move. Several Fed officials have said they are open to a more aggressive path, and Wall Street analysts have raised their forecasts for more and bigger hikes, Yahoo Finance said.

Wednesday’s rebound showed how quickly sentiment can swing. The S&P 500 gained 1.3% and the Nasdaq Composite 1.6% after results from an AI cloud company eased worries about the durability of the artificial intelligence trade, Reuters reported, with advancing stocks outnumbering decliners by 1.3 to 1 on the NYSE. The Treasury market was closed for Veterans Day, so bond traders could react only on Thursday.

Oil Adds to the Uncertainty

Thursday brought another pressure point. Oil prices climbed after the president said he was no longer interested in a deal with Iran, the Associated Press reported, which complicates the inflation outlook. Higher energy costs feed into the same inflation numbers the Fed is fighting. Even so, the S&P 500 finished with a modest loss and is up 2.9% for the week.

Retail investors are watching the same swings closely, and Reddit threads tend to cluster around names where the gap between price and analyst expectations looks widest. That gap deserves some care. An average price target is a twelve-month estimate pulled from sell-side analysts, it is often revised after earnings, and a handful of outliers can skew the mean.

Because upside is measured against the current share price, a sharp drop widens it overnight, while a rally shrinks it just as fast. Readers who follow that chatter can browse our list of undervalued stocks to buy according to Reddit.

With inflation, the Fed and AI spending all in play, the stocks below sit where the debate is loudest, and each one carries an average analyst target well above its recent price.

Our Methodology

To compile this list, we reviewed the stocks drawing the most attention across Reddit’s investing and trading communities. We kept companies with a market capitalization above $10 billion and average upside potential above 80%, based on analysts’ average price target. We then ranked the 10 that qualified in ascending order of average upside potential, as of November 12, 2026. We also list each stock’s number of hedge fund holders as of Q2 2026, from our database of 1,006 hedge funds.

At Insider Monkey, we are obsessed with what hedge funds do. 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. Insider Monkey’s quarterly newsletter strategy selects 14 small-cap and large-cap stocks every quarter and has returned 612% since May 2014, beating its benchmark by 375 percentage points (see more details here).

10 Stocks With Insane Upside According to Reddit

10. Oracle (NYSE:ORCL)

Market Cap: $384.35 billion

Average Upside Potential: 92%

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 119

Stephens analyst Brett Huff upgraded Oracle to Overweight from Equal Weight on November 2 and raised his price target to $213 from $185. He said the company’s investor day answered the biggest question hanging over the stock, which is how it will pay for its cloud buildout. With funding for cloud infrastructure capped at $20 billion, he argued, the perceived risk of Oracle Cloud came out of the shares, and free cash flow estimates “went up dramatically.”

That is what investors like. Oracle, which sells database software and cloud infrastructure and hosts AI workloads for OpenAI, put a date on positive free cash flow, the second half of fiscal 2028, and said it expects at least $30 billion in fiscal 2029. It completed a $20 billion at-the-market equity program in the first quarter and will cap further raises at $20 billion through fiscal 2030, split between equity and debt. Fiscal first-quarter revenue grew 30% to $19.3 billion.

The open question is concentration, since much of the revenue behind those estimates depends on OpenAI paying its bills. For the competitive side, see our look at whether Oracle’s moat is widening or narrowing.

9. Marvell Technology (NASDAQ:MRVL)

Market Cap: $144.21 billion

Average Upside Potential: 92%

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 96

Marvell’s pullback comes from a deal, not from its operations. On November 2 the company agreed to buy Lumentum in a $115 billion all-stock transaction, with each Lumentum share converting into 4.5 Marvell shares. TD Cowen analyst Sean O’Loughlin downgraded Marvell to Hold from Buy the next day and cut his price target to $175 from $350. He pointed to earnings dilution, the risk of buying near the peak of an optical-industry mini-cycle, and doubts that the two companies need to combine. TD Cowen expects mid-single-digit EPS dilution in 2028. BofA Securities also moved to Neutral from Buy on November 3, with a $225 target.

Investors who like the stock point to the base business. Marvell designs the data-center chips and optical components that move data inside AI clusters, and fiscal second-quarter revenue rose 37% to $2.739 billion. Management guided the third quarter to $3.150 billion, plus or minus 5%, and the next report is due on December 1.

The debate is about the price Marvell is paying, not about demand. For the skeptics’ case, see our look at the analysts who will not buy Marvell.
