Share Tips 2026: This Week’s Top Stock Picks from MoneyWeek

As investors look to refresh their portfolios in 2026, MoneyWeek presents its weekly roundup of the top recommended stocks, featuring insights from leading financial experts and share tipsters. This edition highlights promising buying opportunities, cautionary suggestions on stocks to sell, and other noteworthy contenders worth monitoring. Whether you are a seasoned investor or new to the market, this guide offers valuable information to help you make informed decisions.


Three Stocks to Buy

1. Oracle (NYSE: ORCL)
Oracle’s shares have experienced some decline amid concerns over its ambitious $300 billion deal with OpenAI, coupled with worries about high debt levels and substantial capital expenditure. Nevertheless, Oracle remains a key player at the heart of the AI revolution, supplying critical computing power to leading AI developers. In its third quarter, Oracle exceeded sales expectations with a 22% increase to $17.2 billion, primarily fueled by revenue growth in cloud infrastructure services. Analysts forecast that Oracle’s integration of AI will enhance operational efficiency and predict a robust 35% annual sales growth stretching to 2029. At a current price near $141, experts consider Oracle to be undervalued and a compelling buy.

2. Everplay Group (LSE: EVPL)
Despite a notable 40% fall in Everplay’s share price over the past six months—largely due to fears surrounding AI disruption in educational platforms—Investors’ Chronicle rates the video game developer as undervalued. Everplay delivered stable revenue in 2025, having exited its low-margin physical distribution segment, with a core business sales increase of 5%. StoryToys, its education platform, saw a significant 25% revenue surge. The company expects overall profitable growth this year, fueled by the upcoming release of the much-anticipated game Hell Let Loose alongside strategic partnerships with Netflix and Amazon. Trading around 210p, Everplay holds strong growth potential.

3. UPS (NYSE: UPS)
The US-based package delivery giant faced challenges following the post-pandemic shipping boom, dealing with a freight recession, intensifying competition, and tariffs. However, some of these hurdles are easing. UPS’ current low stock valuation, alongside a generous 7% dividend yield, offers a cushion for investors eyeing a turnaround. The company has streamlined its workforce by cutting over 60,000 jobs and is sharpening its focus on higher-margin customers while expanding shipping capabilities. Valued at approximately $98, UPS is currently considered an attractive long-term investment opportunity.


One Stock to Sell

GetBusy (LSE: GETB)
GetBusy, known for its document-management software tailored to professional services firms, appears to be struggling to maintain momentum. While it has historically recorded double-digit growth over the last decade, last year its revenue rose only 3% whereas costs surged by 10%, culminating in the company’s eighth pre-tax loss in ten years. Although the US division SmartVault saw a 16% boost in recurring revenue due to price increases and new clients, overall customer retention remains a concern. The shares, priced around 58p, might seem cheap, but analysts warn of no expected profit or free cash flow generation this year or next, recommending investors sell.


Two Stocks to Consider

1. TPG (NASDAQ: TPG)
TPG is a major US private markets investment firm managing assets worth $300 billion. After a recent share price dip to about $39, experts advise investors to hold on, highlighting TPG’s limited exposure to private-credit software and optimistic outlook for its private equity portfolio. TPG’s hedge fund investments include leading AI innovators such as OpenAI and Anthropic, alongside diversification into real estate, insurance, and wealth management sectors. Its variable dividend policy is projected to maintain a yield above 5%, making TPG an enticing buy-the-dip candidate.

2. Softcat (LSE: SCT)
IT services provider Softcat posted a remarkable 78% surge in interim hardware gross invoiced income, reaching £584 million, driven by heightened demand for data centers, servers, and computing equipment installation—largely spurred by AI advancements. Its software division also saw a 19% increase in income, benefiting significantly from cybersecurity licensing sales. Growth stemmed from both acquiring new customers and expanding sales to existing ones, with Softcat currently servicing 20% of the UK market. Although growth may moderate in the latter half of the year, the company has raised its full-year profit forecast. The recent 20% share price drop, to around 1,188p, is viewed as an overreaction, offering a buying opportunity.
