While fractional shares are becoming more common, removing the barrier to entry to many leading stocks, not every investor has access to them. As a result, looking at reasonably priced stocks becomes part of the artificial intelligence (AI) investing strategy.
If you’ve only got $200 to spend on a stock and have to buy a full share, I’ve got five companies that look like they would be excellent picks. These stocks range from established winners to up-and-coming businesses that could catch fire and deliver impressive returns, but I think all of them are worthy buys right now.
Will AI create the world’s first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an “Indispensable Monopoly” providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue »
Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) currently trades for about $201 per share. However, with the recent rally in AI-related stocks, it could easily soar much higher than $200 soon. Nvidia makes GPUs, which have been the go-to computing unit since the AI arms race began in 2023. Nvidia is experiencing incredible growth, and Wall Street analysts project 79% revenue growth in Q1 and 85% in Q2.
With AI hyperscalers planning on spending billions of dollars on AI infrastructure this year, it bodes well for Nvidia’s future, and I think it’s one of the best buys in the stock market right now.
Nebius (NASDAQ: NBIS) has been on fire this year, and its stock has nearly doubled. But that could just be the start for this neocloud player. Nebius is focusing on providing AI-focused computing hardware to its clients, and this is leading to impressive growth.
Wall Street analysts project 522% revenue growth this year and 195% next year, making it the fastest-growing stock on this list. If these expectations come true, I could see the stock easily doubling over the next few years, if not this year again.
CoreWeave (NASDAQ: CRWV) operates in a similar environment to Nebius and focuses on GPU-based cloud computing infrastructure. While its growth rate isn’t as impressive as Nebius’s, it’s also significantly larger. At the end of 2027, Wall Street expects $23.3 billion in revenue versus Nebius’s $9.7 billion. CoreWeave’s 142% 2026 growth rate projection and 2027’s 87% increase showcase that Wall Street is also bullish on CoreWeave’s products.
Time will tell who the winner between Nebius and CoreWeave is, but they both look like rock-solid investment picks right now.
