We recently compiled a list of the 10 Trending AI Stocks on Wall Street’s Radar. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Snowflake Inc. (NYSE:SNOW) stands against the other AI stocks.

As leaders of some of the biggest companies, economists and world leaders congregated at the 2025 Davos Promenade in Switzerland, artificial intelligence is one topic that featured prominently. It did not come as a surprise, given the AI boom has propelled the market caps of some companies, with some becoming trillion-dollar empires.

This year’s WEF covered both the risks associated with rapidly evolving systems and the latest developments in artificial intelligence. The focus was on current developments with AI agents and artificial general intelligence, or AGI, which describes AI systems that are more intelligent than humans. One thing that came out clear is that a majority of company executives, 58%, expect generative AI solutions to be adopted at scale this year.

However, even as AI continues to dominate most spaces, the question remains whether companies and businesses have the infrastructure and skills to get the most out of the revolutionary technology. “From boosting operational efficiency to delivering insights and discovering new opportunities, AI has the power to redefine how businesses operate. Yet, for many organizations, this potential remains out of reach “because the road to AI adoption is strewn with challenges that often derail success,” said Paul Pallath, vice president of applied AI at technology consulting firm Search.

Businesses must overcome these obstacles and lay a strong foundation for long-term AI integration if AI is to provide genuine value, according to Pallath. Developing a data infrastructure to support AI initiatives is one of the most difficult tasks.

According to an EY survey of 500 senior business executives in the United States last year, 83% of participants stated that having a more robust data infrastructure would speed up their company’s adoption of AI. Two-thirds acknowledged that a lack of infrastructure is hampering their companies’ adoption of AI.

The new US administration under Donald Trump has found an answer to the infrastructure concern that some people believe has hampered growth in the sector. A $500 billion Stargate project involving major tech companies could help accelerate the country’s AI infrastructure development.

“Infrastructure in the United States is super important, AI is a little bit different from other kinds of software in that it requires massive amounts of infrastructure, power, computer chips, data centers, and we need to build that here and we need to be able to have the best AI infrastructure in the world to be able to lead with the technology and the capabilities, “said OpenAI’s Sam Altman.

The Stargate project intends to immediately deploy the first $100 billion, beginning with a data centre in Abilene, Texas, that is 500,000 square feet in size. There are plans to build nine more facilities, with the possibility of expanding to twenty.

The $500 billion Stargate project comes when tech giants and startups are racing to gain a head start and strengthen their product portfolio around artificial intelligence. Funding to AI-related companies reached over $100 billion in 2024, up more than 80% from $55.6 billion in 2023. Amid the massive AI investment, investment opportunities are also cropping up in the equity markets.

Snowflake Inc. (NYSE:SNOW)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 71

Snowflake Inc (NYSE:SNOW) is a cloud-based data platform that offers a data cloud that enables customers to consolidate data to drive meaningful business insights. While the company has underperformed some of its peers amid the artificial intelligence frenzy, Wedbush analyst Dan Ives believes better things are on the way. On January 22nd, the analyst reiterated an Outperform rating on the stock and raised the price target to $210 in response to strong demand for the company’s product portfolio.

According to Ives, Snowflake Inc’s (NYSE:SNOW) product portfolio should continue seeing strong demand following the integrations of artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities. The integration is part of the company’s bid to meet growing enterprise needs.

“SNOW is well-positioned to stabilize margins in the near-term as the company invests to capture the massive growth opportunity taking place in the market while its prudent cost approach assists with bottom-line expansion,” Ives wrote.

Overall SNOW ranks 6th on our list of trending AI stocks on Wall Street’s radar. While we acknowledge the potential of SNOW as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some deeply undervalued AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter timeframe.
