2 High Upside Tech Stocks To Buy Now

Last week, despite the S&P 500’s middling returns, the tech sector had a field day — or rather, a field week. Numerous industries in the sector are among last week’s top performers — a clear signal that risk appetite has started to climb again.

In tandem, earnings season is proceeding better than expected — analysts now project that companies in the S&P 500 will post average earnings growth of 11.9% for Q4 2025, up from an estimate of 8.2% just a week ago.

The real upward momentum hasn’t kicked off just yet — but thus far, the signs are promising, and tech is strongly positioned to absorb the brunt of the bullish sentiment if earnings season keeps going well.

By now, you’re probably aware that the tech sector isn’t the “easy trade” it used to be. Valuations are stretched, real concerns surrounding an AI bubble are still at the forefront, and the big names have been overcrowded for months now. Fortunately, those very same facts also present an opportunity.

Technology Stock Strategy

Our proprietary quant rating system takes into account 115 metrics, split across 7 categories, to evaluate roughly 4,600 stocks on a daily basis. That mass of data is boiled down into a simple, approachable metric — a stock’s Zen Rating.

The stocks that score the highest when it comes to the fundamentals — in the top 5%, to be precise, are given a Zen Rating of A, equivalent to a Strong Buy rating. That already narrows down the playing field significantly — but still leaves you with right around 230 stocks to consider on any given day.

That’s not the end of it, however — you can further refine your search by taking a look at one of our exclusive Zen Strategies.

Each strategy is a portfolio consisting of just 7 carefully-selected stocks, hand-picked to deliver market-beating returns. There are 11 portfolios in total — and with recent market dynamics in mind, today, we’ll be taking a look at a Strategy that has delivered a 4.55% return in the past 30 days alone — far outpacing the S&P 500’s 1.29% gain in the same timeframe. This week, the spotlight is on our Technology Stock Strategy.

Without further ado, let’s take a closer look at 2 very interesting stocks from the portfolio…

Vistance Networks (VISN)

Vistance Network is a key player in providing the type of high-speed data transmission and connectivity infrastructure that modern businesses need to function. If the name doesn’t ring a bell, that’s because until mid-January, the company was known as CommScope (COMM). 

After selling its Connectivity and Cable Solutions segment, the business is now free to focus on its core competencies — and under the ticker VISN, it ranks in the top 1% of the stocks that we track, and is rated 17th overall. Vistance Networks is also the top-rated stock in the Communication Equipment industry.

With a now leaner business structure and a significant reduction to its debt, VISN ranks in the 81st percentile of stocks for Financials. It’s also a favorite of Wall Street’s — the average price target implies a 12.5% upside, although some analysts, like BofA’s Tal Liani (who ranks in the top 13% of analysts), see as much as 30.56% in the cards. This places it in the 91st percentile for Sentiment. That’s not surprising, considering the company is on a 4-quarter back-to-back streak of outperforming analyst EPS estimates.

The biggest advantage VISN has, however, is its valuation — especially relative to growth prospects. In terms of the Value Component Grade rating, it ranks in the top 4% of stocks — and when it comes to Growth, it ranks in the top 2%.

Downsides? Vistance Networks ranks in the bottom 34% of stocks for Safety — but if you’re prepared to weather a bit of volatility, the long-term growth trajectory is there — and the price is hard to beat. If that strikes your fancy, now might be a good time to get in on the action — as the company’s next earnings report is due February 19.

Diebold Nixdorf (DBD)

Best known for its ATM and cash-handling systems, Diebold Nixdorf is a rapidly expanding venture that provides technology solutions for banking, retail, and commercial automation across the world. DBD currently ranks in the top 1% of stocks, and is the 19th highest-rated stock overall. It’s also the top-rated stock in the App industry, which has an Industry Rating of B.

Like our previous pick, DBD has Wall Street’s seal of approval. The average price target implies an 11.1% upside, although the Street-high forecast implies a 15.93% upside. On the whole, Diebold Nixdorf is in the top 5% of stocks when it comes to the Sentiment Component Grade rating.

With earnings forecast to grow at a rate of 253% per year — a bit over thrice the industry average, DBD ranks in the 83rd percentile in terms of Growth. At a P/E ratio of 49.56x and a PEG ratio of 0.24x, the stock is at a significant discount right now — placing it in the top 10% when it comes to the Value Component Grade rating. Finally, as a mature, established business, it also ranks in the 87th percentile for Safety.

What about drawbacks? DBD has a C rating for Financials — but it isn’t a major flaw, as it still ranks in the 81st percentile in this category. You might want to act quickly with this one as well — in the last two quarters, analysts expected to see EPS of $0.58 and $0.93, respectively. What Diebold Nixdorf delivered was $0.94 and $1.39 — and the next earnings call is on February 12.
