Prediction: 2 Nasdaq Stocks Will Be Worth More Than Palantir Technologies in 3 Years
Palantir Technologies stock has advanced 435% in the past year, bringing its market value to $300 billion as of June 7. But two Nasdaq stocks, Shopify (NASDAQ: SHOP) and Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ: ISRG), are growing quickly enough to top that figure in three years. Here's what that would mean for shareholders: Shopify is currently worth $145 billion. It would achieve a market value of over $300 billion if its stock price increased 107% over the next three years, which implies annual returns of 27.4%. Intuitive Surgical is currently worth $200 billion. It would achieve a market value of over $300 billion if its stock price increased 50% in the next three years, which implies annual returns of 14.5%. Here's what investors should know about Shopify and Intuitive Surgical. 1. Shopify Shopify develops e-commerce software and services that help merchants run their businesses across multiple channels, including online marketplaces, social media, mobile apps, and branded websites. The company has won substantial market share. Its merchants account for over 12% of online retail sales in the U.S. and 6% in Western Europe. That makes Shopify the second-largest e-commerce company behind Amazon in those regions. Importantly, Forrester Research recently recognized Shopify as a technology leader in wholesale commerce (also known as business-to-business or B2B commerce) solutions. That's particularly encouraging because the wholesale commerce market is 4 times bigger and growing much more quickly than the retail commerce market, according to Grand View Research. Shopify reported reasonably good first-quarter financial results. Revenue increased 27% to $2.3 billion, and non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) net income jumped 25% to $0.25 per diluted share. One encouraging metric was the 10- basis-point increase in take rate, which measures sales as a percentage of gross merchandise volume. A higher take rate indicates that merchants are adopting more add-on services, such as Shopify Payments. Wall Street expects adjusted earnings to increase by 23% annually through 2026. That makes the current valuation of 90 times earnings look rather expensive. However, analysts have usually underestimated the company. Shopify has beaten the consensus earnings estimate by an average of 11% over the last four quarters. If that trend continues, the stock price could increase by 107% (giving the company a market value above $300 billion) in the next three years while the valuation falls to a cheaper 85 times earnings. Admittedly, that is still an expensive valuation, which makes my prediction somewhat aggressive. But I think Shopify is an excellent long-term investment, even if it fails to top $300 billion within three years. 2. Intuitive Surgical Intuitive Surgical is the pioneer and leader in robotic-assisted surgery. It is best known for da Vinci systems, which enable surgeons to perform minimally invasive procedures with greater precision across several specialties, including urology, gynecology, and general surgery (e.g., hernia repair). The company also sells add-on instruments and accessories that must be replaced with each procedure, as well as supporting software for analytics and training. Intuitive Surgical reported solid first-quarter financial results. Revenue climbed 19% to $2.2 billion due to a combination of increased da Vinci procedure volume and higher systems placements. Meanwhile, non-GAAP net income increased 21% to $1.81 per diluted share. Intuitive Surgical has an important catalyst on the horizon in the midyear launch of its da Vinci 5 system, which features 10,000 times more computing power than its predecessor and innovations such as force feedback. Clinical evidence is still limited, but early data shows that force feedback technology may reduce the incidence of surgical trauma and promote faster recovery times. Importantly, Intuitive Surgical makes the vast majority of its systems in the U.S., but tariffs still represent a headwind because the company sources supplies globally and sells into foreign markets. Management estimates proposed tariffs will reduce its gross margin by 1.7 percentage points this year. But that figure leaves room for upside if the U.S. can negotiate trade deals. Wall Street expects adjusted earnings to grow at 10% annually through 2026, which makes the current valuation of 73 times earnings look very expensive. But analysts have regularly missed the mark. Intuitive Surgical beat the consensus estimate by an average of 14% over the last four quarters. If that continues, the stock could increase by 50% (giving the company a market value above $300 billion) over the next three years while the valuation falls to a more reasonable 65 times earnings.

Got $3,000? 1 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Stock to Buy and Hold for the Long Term.
The artificial intelligence (AI) boom is showing no signs of letting up. Executive teams want to leverage this technology, while employees are worried about how it could affect their jobs. And then there are investors that continue to look for ways to profit from this trend. Picking the right business could be a boon for your portfolio. If you have $3,000 ready to invest right now, here's one AI stock to buy and hold for the long term. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » At the forefront of AI "We will move from mobile-first to an AI-first world," CEO Sundar Pichai of Alphabet 's (NASDAQ: GOOGL)(NASDAQ: GOOG) then-Google division said in the company's 2015 letter to shareholders. This was to outline a fresh strategic focus and outlook of the tech landscape. Looking back with the benefit of hindsight, it's quite remarkable how prescient this perspective was. If we go even further back, Google was using machine learning capabilities in 2001 to help users with their spelling within its popular search engine. While everyone else seems to finally be coming around to the AI craze, Alphabet has been working on this technology for quite some time. This has become more notable recently, with different platforms leveraging AI to better serve users. For example, Search allows users to conduct queries with their cameras, Maps uses AI to provide traffic info, and YouTube can come up with captions for content creators. These are clear examples of AI helping improve the user experience. At its developer conference in May, one notable update that Alphabet announced was Agent Mode. Soon to be released, this tool can handle complex, multistep tasks from start to finish by conducting different activities like surfing the web or doing deep research. Waymo, Alphabet's autonomous vehicle (AV) and robotaxi unit, also leans heavily on AI when completing rides and ensuring a safe trip. It's also used for training and advancing the AV tech. Perhaps no segment has a greater opportunity in AI than Google Cloud. Cloud computing is a major growth market, as more IT spending shifts from on-site to off-premises. This has provided a tailwind. However, now that more companies are realizing that they must incorporate AI within their own operations, it makes Google Cloud even more critical as a vendor. During the first quarter of 2025, 74% of Alphabet's revenue, or $67 billion, came from digital advertising efforts. AI is helping these important customers by building automated ad campaigns in a budget-friendly way, for example. Alphabet is undoubtedly all-in on the AI transition. It's working on this technology to not only improve its existing products and services, but to create entirely new tools for users and customers to benefit from. That strategic focus positions it well for the future. Other reasons to buy this AI stock Based on these factors, it's understandable if you're starting to think that Alphabet might be the best AI stock to own. However, there are other reasons to appreciate this business and opportunity. Alphabet is in incredible financial shape. Even after sizable capital expenditures of $53 billion were made in 2024, the company still managed to bring in $73 billion in free cash flow. It generates unbelievable earnings that allow it to keep plowing more money into things like servers and data centers. Critics will say that this is wasteful spending, but it's a risk worth taking to ensure the business stays ahead of the curve. The current valuation is also too hard to ignore. As of this writing, shares are trading at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 17.5. This multiple represents a 22% discount to the overall S&P 500. All this means investing $3,000 in the stock today and holding for the long term is a smart move. Should you invest $1,000 in Alphabet right now? Before you buy stock in Alphabet, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Alphabet wasn't one of them.
