2026 Is Coming: 1 Magnificent AI Stock to Buy as Your New Year’s Resolution

As we near the end of 2025, one stock stands out as a promising purchase heading into 2026 — DigitalOcean (NYSE: DOCN). While giants like Amazon and Microsoft dominate cloud infrastructure for large enterprises, DigitalOcean has carved out a niche by focusing on small‑ and mid‑sized businesses, offering affordable access to AI capabilities. The company’s AI revenue has more than doubled for five consecutive quarters, driven by an impressive 72 % year‑over‑year jump in annual recurring revenue from customers spending at least $1 million per year. At the same time, DigitalOcean kept its operating expenses flat, enabling net income to surge 381 % in the most recent quarter. Despite these gains, the stock remains relatively attractively valued: trading at a price‑to‑sales ratio of ~5.9x, which is a discount to its historical average of ~8.3x, and a P/E ratio of around 23.7x, below the broader Nasdaq‑100’s 33.6x. With top‑tier Wall Street firms raising their price targets to ~$60, DigitalOcean could be a compelling play on the AI wave heading into next year. #AIinvesting #CloudComputing #DigitalOcean #2026Stocks #SlimScan #GrowthStocks #CANSLIM
