Prediction: 1 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Stock to Buy Before It Soars 100% in the Next Year (Hint: Not Palantir)

CoreWeave shares have already tripled since the company held its initial public offering in March 2025. Research company SemiAnalysis recently recognized CoreWeave as the best GPU cloud on the market. CoreWeave's sales rose 420% in the first quarter, and that momentum could help the stock double in the next year. 10 stocks we like better than CoreWeave › Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR) has been an incredible investment throughout the artificial intelligence (AI) boom. The stock has advanced 1,900% since January 2023. But CoreWeave (NASDAQ: CRWV) could be the next big winner as the AI boom continues to unfold. The company held its initial public offering two months ago, and the share price has already tripled, but I think CoreWeave stock can double again in the next year. Here's why. CoreWeave provides cloud infrastructure and software services. Its platform (called a GPU cloud) is purpose-built for demanding workloads like artificial intelligence (AI). Research company SemiAnalysis recently ranked CoreWeave as the best GPU cloud on the market, awarding it higher scores than competitors like Amazon, Microsoft, and Alphabet's Google. CoreWeave has distinguished itself from those hyperscalers in two ways. First, it is frequently the first cloud to deploy the latest Nvidia technologies due to its close relationship with the chipmaker. Second, CoreWeave is very good at running GPU clusters, such that it frequently achieves record-breaking results at the MLPerf benchmarks: objective tests that measure the performance of AI systems. CoreWeave reported tremendous first-quarter financial results. Revenue increased 420% to $981 million, and adjusted operating income (which excludes stock-based compensation and interest payments on debt) increased 550% to $162 million. As a caveat, the company reported a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) net loss of $150 million because interest payments on debt cut into profits. However, significant debt is unavoidable when building AI infrastructure, and CoreWeave has a responsible borrowing strategy involving what management calls "naturally deleveraging self-amortizing debt facilities." That means the company only takes on debt when a customer contract creates a need for additional AI infrastructure, and only if that contract more than covers the cost of the debt. CoreWeave disclosed an impressive customer list when it filed its Form S-1 with the SEC prior to its initial public offering, including IBM, Meta Platforms, Microsoft, and Nvidia. Since then, CoreWeave has won new contracts with OpenAI and an unnamed hyperscaler, such that the company now has a revenue backlog of nearly $26 billion. CoreWeave currently trades at 26 times sales. That is objectively expensive, but it seems reasonable for a company with triple-digit revenue growth and a gross margin of 73%. For instance, fellow cloud services company Cloudflare reported 27% revenue growth with a 77% gross margin in the most recent quarter, and that stock trades at 35 times sales. Here's why I think CoreWeave stock can double during the next year: Wall Street estimates trailing-12-month sales will grow 200% over the next four quarters. If that happens, shares can double while the price-to-sales ratio drops to a more reasonable 17. That seems plausible, provided demand for AI infrastructure remains robust.

2 Growth Stocks to Buy and Hold Forever

Amazon's constant innovation is a hallmark of a business that will still be around in 50 years. Netflix is a highly profitable entertainment business that is still finding new avenues of growth. 10 stocks we like better than Amazon › Buying growth stocks that you intend to hold forever is a smart strategy. It forces you to think about companies that will still be around in 50 years. This raises the odds that the stock will keep compounding in value over your lifetime, which is the lazy way to get rich without doing much work. If this sounds like a good plan, here are two stocks to consider buying. Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) has profitable revenue streams coming from e-commerce, cloud computing, retail advertising, and third-party fulfillment services. It generated $21 billion in free cash flow on $650 billion of revenue over the last year. The foundation of Amazon's business is its online store, making up 37% of first-quarter revenue. Its wide selection, delivery infrastructure, and large customer base with more than 200 million Prime members give Amazon a strong competitive advantage. Amazon's investments in robotics to automate inventory management and order processing are strengthening its competitive advantage in a $4 trillion global e-commerce market. Amazon continues to push the limits of delivery speeds. In Q1, it set a new record for items delivered the same or next day. It's probably not by accident that this accomplishment follows the unveiling of its next-generation fulfillment center in Shreveport, Louisiana, in 2024. This facility is powered by artificial intelligence (AI) and uses 10 times more robotics than the company's other facilities. Amazon said its new fulfillment center will set a new standard for the retail industry. This is an incredibly innovative company that has progressed from selling out of a garage 30 years ago to using AI to deliver millions of items at blazing speed. That's the kind of business you want to invest in. Amazon's investments in AI bolster its long-term prospects. Analysts currently expect the company's earnings to grow at an annualized rate of 17% in the coming years, which reflects expectations for improving margins in its retail business, in addition to strong growth from other high-margin services like cloud computing and advertising. Amazon has a lot of levers it can pull to create shareholder returns. Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) stock continues to hit new highs. It has evolved from a DVD-by-mail rental service 20 years ago to a dominant streaming service. Over the last year, the company generated $7 billion in free cash flow on $40 billion of revenue, and it keeps growing. Its growing cash flow paves the way for increasing content spend to keep winning more subscribers. People have varying entertainment preferences, and Netflix can afford to make a wide variety of content that pleases everyone. It spent $17 billion in content production last year and still reported a stellar 22% profit margin. Netflix still has a huge opportunity internationally. Its growing budget will allow it to invest in widening its content offering to appeal to different cultures. Netflix started investing in local infrastructure to support its growth plans a decade ago and is now producing content in more than 50 countries. What's more, Netflix is testing new content formats to widen the viewership. Its livestream of the Taylor-Serrano fight in November was the most-watched professional women's sports event in U.S. history. With more than 700 million people watching content on its platform, Netflix could also see advertising revenue soar in the coming years. Ad-supported subscriber plans come at a lower price point, helping the company expand its audience reach and boost margins at the same time. Analysts expect its earnings to grow at an annualized rate of 22% over the next several years. Netflix's strong brand and high-margin business have the makings of a stock that is going to reward shareholders for many years. Before you buy stock in Amazon, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the for investors to buy now… and Amazon wasn't one of them. The 10 stocks that made the cut could produce monster returns in the coming years.
