3 Wall Street Favorites for 2026: Up to 40% Potential Upside

Jakarta, Gotrade News - With the new year just around the corner, Wall Street consensus is showing high confidence that the tech trend isn't stopping anytime soon, slapping 'Strong Buy' ratings on three big-cap stocks.

This signal is clear: AI and cloud computing are predicted to remain the main growth engines for your portfolio in 2026.

Key Takeaways

• Nvidia leads the pack with a price target upside of up to 40%, thanks to its dominance in AI infrastructure.
• Amazon is backed by massive growth projections for the cloud industry, estimated to hit trillion-dollar valuations.
• Broadcom is positioned as a key beneficiary of infrastructure spending with a potential 30% upside.

A recent report from Finbold highlights three companies that aren't just surviving, but are projected to set new records next year. The vibe is overwhelmingly positive, based on a dominant ratio of 'Buy' recommendations compared to 'Hold' or 'Sell' ratings.

Nvidia (NVDA)

NVIDIA Corporation's dominance in providing data center infrastructure makes this stock a top pick for analysts in 2026. The company keeps crushing market expectations thanks to widening AI tech adoption across various industries.

Based on TipRanks data cited by Finbold, 39 out of 41 analysts have given a 'Buy' rating in the last three months. The average price target sits at US$263.58, indicating a potential upside of 40 percent from current prices.

Amazon (AMZN)

Beyond its e-commerce empire, the Amazon Web Services (AWS) segment is the real MVP keeping the company's long-term growth prospects solid. Grand View Research projects the cloud computing industry will grow at a CAGR of 16 percent between 2026 and 2033.

Market consensus gives Amazon.com, Inc. a 'Strong Buy' predicate with 45 buy recommendations and only one hold. Analysts set the average 12-month price target at US$296.12, implying a potential gain of 27.42 percent.

Broadcom (AVGO)

As a semiconductor solution designer, Broadcom Inc. is seen as strategically positioned to catch the ongoing wave of AI infrastructure spending. Rainwater Equity founder Joseph Shaposhnik even predicts the company's AI business revenue could double in 2026.

This positive sentiment is reflected in the 27 'Buy' ratings Broadcom received, with only two analysts suggesting a 'Hold'. The consensus price target is at US$455.63, offering a potential 30 percent upside opportunity for investors.
