This AI Stock Has Dwarfed Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) with its Returns

3 years 4 months ago
Nvidia ( NASDAQ:NVDA ) stock is on a stellar bull run, thanks to investors’ positive outlook on generative  AI (Artificial Intelligence) and its dominant positioning in that space. Given the optimism, Nvidia briefly became the first  chip company to achieve $1 trillion in market cap. While NVDA has appreciated a lot, the stock of C3.ai ( NYSE:AI ), an enterprise AI application software company, dwarfed NVDA with its returns on a year-to-date basis. NVDA stock is up about 174% year-to-date. At the same time, C3.ai stock has surged nearly 293%. The uptrend in C3.ai stock is supported by the launch of its generative AI product suite following the success of OpenAI’s  ChatGPT.  C3.ai is expanding its generative AI product suite on marketplaces, including Amazon’s ( NASDAQ:AMZN ) AWS and Alphabet's ( NASDAQ:GOOGL )( NASDAQ:GOOG ) cloud. Moreover, it announced that its generative AI product suite drew interest from new and existing customers. It signed three new generative AI application agreements with large enterprises in the fourth quarter. Furthermore, it closed 43 deals during the same period.  C3.ai will report its Q4 financial results today after the market closes. The company earlier stated that it expects Q4 revenues to be in the range of $72.1-$72.4 million, which is higher than the Street’s forecast of $71.32 million. However, the  company’s top line could remain flat compared to the prior-year quarter. While C3’s management remains upbeat and expects to achieve profitability by the end of Fiscal 2024, the company projects it will report an adjusted operating loss in the range of $23.7 to $23.9 million in the fourth quarter. Q4. Wall Street analysts expect it to post  a loss of $0.17 per share in Q4, which reflects an improvement from the loss of $0.21 in the prior-year quarter.  What is the Future of C3.ai Stock? The growing adoption of generative AI and the large addressable market for enterprise AI will likely support  C3.ai stock. However, analysts remain on the sidelines due to the recent rally in its share price and the company’s ongoing transition to a consumption-based pricing model. It has three Buys, four Holds, and four Sells for a Hold consensus rating. Further, analysts’ average price target of $20.50 implies 53.36% downside potential from current levels.  Disclosure

Amazon Stock Jumps 43% YTD; More Upside Left, Say Analysts

3 years 5 months ago
Amazon ( NASDAQ:AMZN ) stock, like most of its  tech peers, has outperformed the broader markets in terms of growth. It has gained about 43% year-to-date compared to an approximately 10% increase in the S&P 500 Index ( SPX ). While AMZN stock has appreciated substantially, a rebound in the AWS (Amazon Web Services- its high-margin cloud offering) segment will drive its stock higher, noted Mizuho Securities analyst  James Lee.  He recommends a Buy on AMZN stock, while his price target of $160 implies 33.21% upside potential from current levels.  In a note to investors dated May 23, Lee wrote that his latest channel checks indicate that AWS’ Gen-AI (generative  Artificial Intelligence) demand has been growing. The analyst added that AWS’ Gen-AI is priced higher than conventional computing, which will support revenues and margins.  Thanks to the strong demand and meaningful pricing, Lee believes “AWS revenue growth will likely trough in 2Q23” and start reaccelerating in 2H23. Echoing similar sentiments, Jefferies analyst  Brent Thill also sees more upside in AMZN stock. He expects Amazon's share price to reach $135, implying 12.4% upside potential from current levels.  Thill expects a rebound in its high-margin cloud business in the second half of 2023 or the first half of 2024. Furthermore, the analyst believes that its ad business will likely deliver strong growth and expenses will moderate,  supporting margins.  While Lee and Thill are bullish, let’s check what other analysts are recommending for AMZN stock.  What is Amazon's Stock Price Target? The easing of inflation, expected rebound in AWS, and cost-cutting measures will likely support its financials and stock price. Given the improving operating environment,  AMZN stock has a Strong Buy consensus rating based on 35 Buy and one Hold recommendations. At the same time, analysts’ average price target of $134.85 implies 12.27% upside potential from current levels.  Disclosure
