Three Stocks to Buy

1. Oracle (NYSE: ORCL)
Source: Barron’s

Oracle’s shares have recently dipped amid concerns around its ambitious $300 billion deal with OpenAI, combined with worries about high debt levels and capital expenditure. However, the tech giant remains “integral to the AI revolution” due to its role as a key cloud computing provider for AI developers. In its third quarter, Oracle posted $17.2 billion in sales—a 22% year-on-year increase—driven largely by cloud infrastructure revenue. Analysts expect that Oracle’s AI-enhanced offerings could boost operational efficiency, projecting annual sales growth of 35% through 2029. With its current valuation considered “cheap,” Oracle represents a compelling buy at approximately $141 per share.

2. Everplay Group (LSE: EVPL)

Everplay, a video game developer, is described as “undervalued” despite strong core performance and robust cash generation. The company reported stable revenues in 2025 after exiting its low-margin physical distribution business, with a 5% increase in sales when excluding that segment. Its educational platform, StoryToys, achieved a 25% revenue jump. Although concerns about AI’s potential to disrupt educational technologies caused shares to fall by 40% over six months, Everplay anticipates “profitable growth” for the full fiscal year. Looking ahead, promising catalysts include the launch of the much-anticipated new installment of the popular game Hell Let Loose, plus strategic deals with streaming giants Netflix and Amazon. Its shares currently trade around 210p.

3. UPS (NYSE: UPS)

The US logistics firm UPS has faced challenges following the post-Covid shipping boom, including a freight industry downturn, tariff pressures, and heightened competition. Nevertheless, easing headwinds, a low valuation, and a generous 7% dividend yield offer a margin of safety for investors seeking long-term gains. UPS has already implemented significant cost-cutting measures, including the reduction of over 60,000 jobs, while refocusing on high-margin clientele and expanding shipping capabilities. Trading near $98, UPS is highlighted as a stock to hold through its expected recovery.


One Stock to Sell

GetBusy (LSE: GETB)

GetBusy, a provider of document-management software for professional services firms, is facing ongoing struggles. Despite double-digit growth over the past decade, last year’s revenue growth slowed to just 3%, while costs rose 10%, leading to the company’s eighth pre-tax loss in ten years. While its US unit, SmartVault, saw a 16% increase in recurring revenue powered by price hikes and new client wins, GetBusy is battling high customer churn rates. The shares appear “cheap” at roughly 58p but profitability and positive free cash flow are not expected this year or next. The advice: “Sell.”


Two Stocks to Consider

1. TPG (NASDAQ: TPG)

TPG is a major player in private markets, managing $300 billion in assets. Although share prices have declined somewhat recently, analysts advise investors to “hold on.” TPG’s portfolio has limited exposure to less favorable private-credit software segments, while its private equity investments are expected to outperform. Its hedge fund holdings include cutting-edge AI innovators like OpenAI and Anthropic, alongside early bets on other AI unicorns. The company has also diversified into real estate, insurance, and wealth management. With a flexible dividend policy, a yield north of 5% is anticipated. TPG, trading at about $39, is regarded as a “buy-the-dip opportunity.”

2. Softcat (LSE: SCT)

IT services firm Softcat showcased strong growth in its interim results, driven by a 78% surge in hardware gross invoiced income to £584 million. This was fueled by solid demand for new data centers, servers, and computer hardware, much of it AI-related infrastructure. The software segment also grew 19%, supported by increased cybersecurity license sales. New customers and expanded sales to existing clients fueled the growth, with Softcat currently serving 20% of the UK market. Although growth is expected to moderate later in the year, the company recently raised its full-year profit guidance. Given the recent 20% drop in share price, investors might find the current valuation, approximately 1,188p, “overdone” and a good buying opportunity.
