When a legendary investor like George Soros makes a move, Wall Street pays attention. However, most of the limelight is taken by mega-cap stocks, with no one paying heed to the many small-cap stocks that form an important part of Soros’ portfolio.
Digging out these small-cap stocks is important. In some cases, these are the mega-cap stocks of the future. In other cases, these provide amazing returns in a very short period of time. The key is to get in early. And what better way to get in early than to do it when the big guys do.

NICE Ltd. (NASDAQ:NICE)
NICE Ltd. (NASDAQ:NICE) delivers cloud platforms for AI-driven digital business solutions. The company provides Enlighten, CXone, journey orchestration solutions, and smart self-service. It also offers NICE Evidencentral, X-Sight, Xceed, data intelligence solutions, and others. According to the median analyst price target, the stock still has an upside of 36.00%.
Fueled by expanding TAM in Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) and strong AI adoption, the company’s long-term growth outlook remains promising. With cloud revenue reaching 74% of the total revenue, the shift toward cloud continues. The firm is successfully transitioning to a pure-play cloud leader from a legacy on-premise provider. Demand does not seem to be a constraint as long-term demand remains strong.
NICE Ltd. (NASDAQ:NICE) reported strong earnings in the latest quarter, exceeding management’s guidance. The firm recorded a 16% YoY revenue growth, driven by a solid 24% YoY revenue growth in the cloud segment. Operating margin stood at 31.5% along with EBIT growth of 22% YoY.
Despite strong results, the management provided poor guidance for FY 2025. As per the guidance, the anticipated cloud segment growth is 12%, which is significantly lower than Q4 2024. As a result of the poor guidance, the stock fell and continues to trade near 52-week lows.
Overall, NICE ranks 9th on our list of Billionaire George Soros’ small-cap stocks with huge upside potential. While we acknowledge the potential of NICE as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter time frame. There is an AI stock that went up since the beginning of 2025, while popular AI stocks lost around 25%.
