Buy the Dip: 2 Tech Stocks Stocks Under $10 Wall Street Predicts Will Double

Despite the Tech sell-off due to the Federal Reserve’s aggressive interest rate hikes, the increased adoption of advanced technologies should help fundamentally sound stocks rebound soon. So, Wall Street analysts believe tech stocks Similarweb (SMWB) and Taboola.com (TBLA), trading under $10, could double in price from their recent dips.

The concerns surrounding the economy slipping into a recession due to tighter monetary policy have driven a broad sell-off in tech stocks, as evident from the benchmark Nasdaq composite index’s 27.4% decline year-to-date. In addition, May’s consumer price index increased 8.6% year-over-year, the fastest advance in more than 40 years. The Fed is also expected to raise interest rates by a half-point next week and another half-point in July.

However, this provides a golden opportunity for investors to add quality tech stocks now trading at attractive valuations. These stocks are expected to rebound in the near term as the ongoing digital transformation, and increasing use of cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and the internet of things (IoT) should keep driving the technology industry's growth. According to Gartner, Inc. (IT), worldwide IT spending is expected to hit $4.4 trillion in 2022, up 4% year-over-year.

Given this backdrop, it could be wise to add quality technology stocks Similarweb Ltd. (SMWB) and Taboola.com Ltd. (TBLA) to your watch list as Wall Street analysts expect these stocks to double in the near term.
