1. Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:SMCI) 

Super Micro Computer, Inc. is a manufacturer and developer of storage solutions and high-performance servers. The company serves cloud computing, 5G and edge computing, artificial intelligence, and data center markets.

SMCI stock is up 28% this year but over the past year, it has lost more than half its value. The recent Nasdaq compliance is driving up the price and there is optimism that the firm will mend its ways and implement better financial controls in its business. Bigger investors may still be avoiding the stock but once they see the management’s resolve, they might want to come back in at discounted levels. That’s where the stock will take off.

This disconnect between the investors and analysts is what drives the company’s bullish thesis. On a fundamental level, the company’s customized server solutions are still in high demand. Oracle’s recent earnings showed the demand for cloud services is still as strong as ever.

Now that the company can finally focus on the business, the rising demand from Blackwell GPUs ramp-up is the perfect opportunity for investors, irrespective of where the economy is headed.
