These 3 AI Stocks Will Skyrocket In 2026 (Don't Miss Out)
351 segments
The key to finding great stocks is
understanding a company's products, not
just their profits. Huge growth happens
when a company has the perfect product
for a quickly growing market. But the
Federal Reserve is about to cut interest
rates, which will make some investors
very rich as long as they know which
stocks to buy and which ones to avoid.
So, in this video, I'll highlight three
smaller stocks set to win big over the
course of the AI era, especially as the
Fed keeps cutting rates. Your time is
valuable, so let's get right into it.
First things first, I'm not here to
waste your time. So, here's everything
I'll cover up front. Why these three
smaller AI stocks could win big as
interest rates fall. Coreweave, a
quickly growing AI cloud platform built
around Nvidia's GPUs. Arista Networks,
which makes high performance Ethernet
switches to connect those GPUs. And
Micron Technology, which makes the high
bandwidth memory for them. That way,
we're holding some of the key AI data
center companies regardless of which
chipmaker or hyperscaler actually ends
up on top. That's a great way to get
rich without getting lucky. But context
is important. So, here's how I picked
these companies in the first place. The
next Federal Reserve meeting ends on
Wednesday, December 10th, and they're
very likely to lower interest rates,
which has a huge impact on the stock
market. Long story short, lower interest
rates mean consumers and businesses can
afford to borrow more money, which means
they'll spend more, which means more
revenues and earnings for the companies
that we invest in. But when the Federal
Reserve cuts rates, they're actually
giving the stock market two different
tailwinds, not just one. Because lower
interest rates also lower yields on
bonds and bank accounts, which makes
stocks more attractive investments. That
means they get higher multiples like
price to earnings or price to sales
ratios. So, as interest rates go down, a
company's earnings and their PE ratio
should both go up. A rising tide lifts
all boats, but not all stocks will go up
equally. So, let me show you something
that will put you ahead of every Wall
Street analyst that's trying to find the
biggest winners as the Fed cuts rates.
Don't worry, I'll keep it short and
sweet so we can get to the stocks. This
is a case study showing the S&P 500's
average returns before and after the Fed
starts cutting rates. The x-axis is time
and months and the y-axis is returns. As
of quarter 2, US GDP is growing at 3.8%
8% per year. And forecasts predict the
same growth for quarter 3, which means
the economy is currently expanding. So
the S&P 500's average rate of return one
year after the first rate cut in an
expanding economy is 20%. But I just
said that not all stocks go up equally.
So let's look at this data a different
way. What I did was take the same stock
market data, but instead of the whole
S&P 500, I broke it down for the S&P
500's growth and value indexes, which
are SPY and SPYV, respectively. Just to
check my math, I get the same average
returns in an expanding economy as the
original case study. But look at the
huge difference when we break it down by
growth versus value. The growth index
returns around twice as much as the
value index at almost every point in a
rate cut cycle. And I expect that
difference to get even bigger over the
course of the AI era since hyperscalers
like Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and Meta
Platforms are all spending hundreds of
billions of dollars a year on data
centers. And I think these three smaller
AI stocks will benefit big time as a
result. So, putting everything together,
we want to find companies that are small
enough to be sensitive to interest rates
and serving markets where spending is
growing fast since lower rates will
increase that spending even more. Keep
in mind that smaller stocks tend to be
more risky. So, think about your overall
portfolio and make sure to understand
the companies you're holding. That way,
you don't panic sell if the market drops
again in 2026. 2026 is right around the
corner. And while everyone's making
resolutions they won't keep, you can
learn AI before the new year even
begins. That's where Outskll comes in,

with my link below today. All right, so
now that you have the context on how I
picked these stocks, let's talk about
the stocks themselves. Starting with
Coree, ticker symbol CRWV. Cororeweave's
goal is to be the Amazon web services
for AI workloads by providing the most
advanced computing infrastructure to
companies that can't afford to spend
years and billions of dollars building
it themselves. Coreweave currently
operates 41 data centers that are
purpose-built for AI, which hold more
than 300,000 Nvidia GPUs combined across
Europe and North America. But don't
forget that most data centers are
limited by power. And Cororeweave has
over half a gigawatt of active power and
almost 3 gawatts of contracted power
capacity. That's enough to power over
24,000 Blackwell Ultra racks or over 1.7
million Nvidia GPUs. There are three
kinds of companies that want access to
those GPUs. AI model makers like OpenAI
and Anthropic enterprises adding AI to
their apps and internal workflows and
hyperscalers that need extra capacity
when there's too much demand on their
own servers. One special thing about
Coreweave is they get priority access to
Nvidia's latest chips like the new
Blackwell Ultras or the Vera Rubin
architecture that's coming out next
year. That's a pretty big competitive
advantage over other infrastructure
suppliers. And that's why OpenAI
expanded their agreement with
Cororeweave by another $6.5 billion last
quarter, bringing their total
partnership to over $22 billion in
value. These deals will provide OpenAI
with dedicated compute capacity to train
and deploy their latest AI models,
including reasoning models like GBT5,
which generate a lot more tokens during
inference. Meta Platforms made a $14
billion deal with Cororeweave for
compute clusters dedicated to training
and running Llama, as well as scaling
Meta's AI infrastructure from now
through 2031. Coreweave also has around
$10 billion worth of deals with
Microsoft to support training and
inference on Azure as well as other AI
services like Bing AI and GitHub
C-Pilot. Not to mention their
partnership directly with Nvidia where
Nvidia will purchase any unsold compute
capacity from Coree through 2032 and use
it for AI developers and customers that
need quick access to GPU clusters
running the CUDA ecosystem. My point is,
even though Cororeweave is still
relatively small, they're working with
some of the biggest companies on Earth
today, and they're growing exceptionally
fast. As of their latest earnings call,
their revenues grew by 134%
year-over-year, and they have a $55
billion backlog of deals, which is
almost four times bigger than it was a
year ago. And that's mostly driven by
the multi-year contracts I just
mentioned. That's why I think
Cororeweave is so undervalued today.
They have $55 billion worth of committed
revenue on their books. But their
current market cap is only $44 billion.
Name one other publicly traded company,
more than doubling their revenues every
year, with a backlog of business worth
25% more than the entire company itself.
Like I said at the start of this video,
huge growth happens when a company has
the perfect product for a quickly
growing market. For a core, that's
ondemand access to the latest AI
infrastructure. and we'll see just how
big they'll grow now that interest rates
are going down, letting companies spend
even more. That's also why I picked
Arista Networks, ticker symbol A&E.
Arista designs specialized Ethernet
switches and network control software to
help deploy fast, huge, and reliable
networks for a wide variety of
applications like cloud computing, video
streaming, and of course, AI model
training. Training and running today's
AI models at scale involves breaking up
massive amounts of data, calculating
partial products on thousands of
interconnected chips and then
recombining all those partial answers to
form a final solution. That means the
whole AI system is only as fast as the
slowest part of the network. And any
bottlenecks or lost data means wasted
compute time, lower reliability, and
ultimately higher costs. Arista's
software and switches are engineered for
extremely high speeds, low latency, and
maximum reliability. And because they
use open standards, their customers
don't get locked into a single vendor,
which makes their offerings even more
attractive. Arista also has a highly
programmable operating system called EOS
that runs all of their networking
equipment. EOS helps data center
operators manage and automate systems,
balance workloads across thousands of
nodes, monitor network health, and even
identify and solve issues as they come
up. and they work very closely with
Broadcom. Arisa's switches and software
are built around Broadcom's ultraast
Tomahawk switch chips, so they're able
to stay ahead of the growing demand for
hypers scale AI networks. And that
demand is growing fast. The global
artificial intelligence market is
expected to almost 19x in size over the
next 9 years, which would be a compound
annual growth rate of over 38%. That's
three times faster than the S&P 500. And
that's before the Federal Reserve
started lowering rates, which means this
market could grow even faster as
companies like Amazon, Google,
Microsoft, and Meta Platforms spend
billions of dollars connecting their AI
clusters together using Arista's
switches and software. But you can't
have hypers scale computing without high
bandwidth memory. And that's where
Micron comes in. Ticker symbol MU.
Micron Technology makes memory for the
entire computing industry, including
solid-state drives, RAM modules, and
flash memory for data centers, PCs, and
smartphones. They have over a 20% share
of the global DRAM market, putting them
only behind SKH Highix and Samsung. But
SKHEX and Samsung are both South Korean
companies. So, they could face tariffs
that Micron could avoid by being a US
company. Not to mention that the market
for AI memory chips is expected to 9x in
size by 2034, which would be over a 27%
compound annual growth rate for the next
9 years straight. The memory market is
split between volatile memory like the
high bandwidth memory modules attached
to Nvidia's GPUs and nonvolatile memory
like the solidstate drives used to store
AI data sets, model weights, and
training results. In my opinion, the big
reason to invest in Micron is high
bandwidth memory since that's what AI
factories need the most. High bandwidth
memory is designed to move huge volumes
of data at extremely high speeds by
stacking memory chips and connecting
them to a shared hub. HBM is much faster
and much more power efficient than other
kinds of memory because it lowers the
physical distance that data needs to
travel. Modern frontier models can have
trillions of parameters and they need to
handle massive data sets as fast as
possible. Traditional memory would be a
big bottleneck in that process. So high
bandwidth memory is one of the big
reasons that AI models can be trained so
fast, have such huge parameter counts,
and do reasoning without taking hours to
generate a single answer. High bandwidth
memory is a type of DRAM. And as of
Micron's latest earnings, their DRAM
business is bringing in $9 billion a
quarter, representing 79% of their total
revenue. And just like Cororeweave and
Arista Networks, Micron is a high growth
company with DRAM revenues growing by
27% quarter over-arter and 62%
year-over-year. Micron's next earnings
call is in a couple of weeks. So,

growth AI memory maker. Either way,
there you have it. three smaller AI
stocks that could win big as the Federal
Reserve keeps cutting rates because they
provide high performance computing
infrastructure, high-speed networking,
and high bandwidth memory that every
data center needs if they want to be a
part of the AI revolution. That makes
these three stocks a great way to get
rich without getting lucky. And if you
