This announcement comes after Trump&#8217;s previous pledge to give Kennedy <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41565423/trump-says-robert-kennedy-jr-can-run-wild-on-health-and-food-im-going-to-let-him-go-wild-on-the-medi">full authority over health</a>, food, and medicine issues if he secures a second term. The former President had expressed his intent to allow Kennedy to &#8220;run wild&#8221; on these matters, with the exception of oil.
Kennedy Jr. is known for his contentious views on vaccines and has also been know to speak out regularly on food additives. In the aftermath of the election, shares of pharmaceutical companies, particularly those associated with the COVID-19 vaccine, have slid.
On Wednesday Pfizer Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>) and Modern Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRNA#NASDAQ">MRNA</a>) stocks hovered near their 52-week lows of $25.20 and $49.60 respectively. For the day, PFE ended 2.2% lower at $27.36, while MRNA dropped 2.8% to $51.81. The iShares U.S. Pharmaceuticals ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IHE#NYSE">IHE</a>) fell 0.5% to $68.39 in a similar period.
Why It Matters: Kennedy&#8217;s new role and the tasks assigned to him align with Trump&#8217;s earlier statements. In a recent interview, Trump showed tentative support for Kennedy&#8217;s plan to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41704387/robert-kennedy-jr-says-he-will-advise-all-us-water-systems-to-remove-fluoride-on-day-1-of-trump-admi">remove fluoride from water</a>, a move aimed at improving public health. Kennedy, known for his health-related advocacies, stated that his administration would encourage all U.S. water systems to eliminate fluoride on its first day in office.
Furthermore, Kennedy had previously disclosed that he might be appointed by Trump to select leaders for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40931166/robert-kennedy-jr-trump-wants-him-to-help-pick-cdc-fda-and-nih-leaders-unravel-the-capture-of-agenci">key public health agencies</a>, including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Food and Drug Administration, and the National Institutes of Health. This latest announcement seems to confirm his involvement in these agencies, marking a significant shift in the country&#8217;s health policies.

Signal description
Order flow analytics, aka transaction or market flow analysis, separate and study both the retail and institutional volume rate of orders (flow). It involves analyzing the flow of buy and sell orders, along with size, timing, and other associated characteristics and patterns, to gain insights and make more informed trading decisions. This particular indicator is interpreted as a bullish signal by active traders.&nbsp;
The Power Inflow occurs within the first two hours of the market open and generally signals the trend that helps gauge the stock&#8217;s overall direction, powered by institutional activity in the stock, for the remainder of the day.&nbsp;
By incorporating order flow analytics into their trading strategies, market participants can better interpret market conditions, identify trading opportunities, and potentially improve their trading performance. But let's not forget that while watching smart money flow can provide valuable insights, it is crucial to incorporate effective risk management strategies to protect capital and mitigate potential losses. Employing a consistent and effective risk management plan helps traders navigate the uncertainties of the market in a more controlled and calculated manner, increasing the likelihood of long-term success

Tapping into voters&#8217; dissatisfaction with the economy, among other issues, Donald Trump won the popular vote in the presidential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41768178/donald-trump-defeats-kamala-harris-to-win-2024-election">election</a> on Tuesday night. 
Meanwhile, bond traders on Wall Street dubbed &#8220;bond vigilantes&#8221; remain worried about long-term economic prospects under a Trump presidency.
What Are Bond Vigilantes?: A bond vigilante is an investor who protests against inflationary monetary or fiscal policies by selling bonds. This, in turn, increases bond yields which can force politicians&#8217; hand against inflationary policies.
Inflation necessitates increases in interest rates which erode the value of bonds.
Yields increased sharply during the Clinton administration during a period of concern over fiscal spending. The administration subsequently reduced the federal deficit, leading yields to recede.
The Trump Campaign: Trump&#8217;s 2024 campaign focused on populist economic policies, including high tariffs on imported goods and a possible elimination of the income tax. Experts say that Trump&#8217;s agenda would spur economic growth but would <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/06/39131503/ex-treasury-secretary-larry-summers-warns-trumps-re-election-may-push-mortgage-rate">be highly inflationary</a>.
Trump ran on tax cuts in his 2016 election win and enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs, which <a href="https://taxfoundation.org/blog/tcja-corporate-tax-economic-effects/">boosted</a> corporate investment but <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/06/39462030/trump-added-nearly-two-times-more-to-the-national-debt-than-biden-while-in-office-new-report">added $1.9 trillion</a> to the U.S. national debt.
If Trump follows through on his policy commitments — which could be likely with a solidly red Senate and a yet-to-be-called House of Representatives — the fiscal deficit will balloon.
The Bond Market Reacts: The bond market quickly reacted to Trump&#8217;s win. The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield rose to 4.479%, its highest mark since July.
Much of Trump&#8217;s win was already priced in by the markets —10-year yields are up over seven-tenths of a percentage point since early September.

In the aftermath of the 2024 presidential election, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has publicly criticized the Democratic Party&#8217;s handling of working-class issues.
What Happened: A statement released on Tuesday by Sanders expressed his disappointment with the Democratic Party&#8217;s neglect of the working class, which he believes has led to their abandonment of the party. 
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

&#8220;It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.&#8221;
Sanders highlighted the increasing income and wealth inequality in the U.S., with 60% of Americans living paycheck to paycheck. He also criticized the country&#8217;s healthcare system and its continued financial support for the Netanyahu government.
&#8220;Unbelievably, real, inflation-accounted-for weekly wages for the average American worker are actually lower now than they were 50 years ago.&#8221;
Sanders wondered if the Democratic party would actually learn any real lessons from this &#8220;disastrous campaign.&#8221; He expressed his lack of confidence in this being a learning movement for the democrats.
&#8220;In the coming weeks and months those of us concerned about grassroots democracy and economic justice need to have some very serious political discussions,&#8221; said Sanders.
In a post on X, on Wednesday, Sanders said, &#8220;While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change.&#8221; He said &#8220;They&#8217;re right.&#8221;

The election results sparked an &#8220;everything rally&#8221; on Wall Street, with major U.S. equity indices surging to record highs. This was largely due to investor optimism over anticipated favorable tax policies under the Trump administration.

What To Watch: Hurricanes affect people, homes and companies in their paths and spread wide-reaching effects on various sectors and industries. Insurance companies see an influx of claims resulting from damage to property and vehicles. Homes will have to be repaired and rebuilt driving sales of lumber, windows and sheetrock higher.

Home improvement stores like Home Depot Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) and Lowe&#8217;s Companies, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOW#NYSE">LOW</a>) could see a pop in sales as people rush to secure their homes before the storm and repair damage after. 
Generac Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GNRC#NYSE">GNRC</a>) designs and manufactures standby generators and portable generators and often sees its shares rise before and after major weather events. 
Shares of insurance companies tend to drop after natural disasters and investors may want to keep an eye on Allstate Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALL#NYSE">ALL</a>), Travelers Companies, Inc.(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRV#NYSE">TRV</a>) and Chubb Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CB#NYSE">CB</a>) in the days and weeks following a potential landfall from Hurricane Rafael. 
Power companies including Duke Energy Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUK#NYSE">DUK</a>) and Southern Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SO#NYSE">SO</a>) could face increased labor costs and additional costs to repair infrastructure after the storm.

ASML Holding NV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) shares were down 2.22% to $661.43 at market close Wednesday following news of Donald Trump's victory in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/41772701/trumps-historic-return-7-ways-his-second-term-could-impact-the-us-economy">2024 U.S. presidential election</a>.
Trump&#8217;s return to office, coupled with a Republican majority in the Senate and a lead in the House of Representatives, has raised concerns over renewed trade tensions and the possibility of aggressive tariffs.
What To Know: During his campaign, Trump proposed a 60% tariff on Chinese goods, along with a universal 10% tariff on all imports to the U.S. This policy direction is worrying for global technology companies, including ASML, as its advanced lithography machines are essential to semiconductor production worldwide.
ASML's products are already impacted by U.S.-China trade policies, given the semiconductor industry's reliance on complex international supply chains. ASML, which is headquartered in the Netherlands, sells its equipment globally, including to Chinese companies — a significant revenue stream now facing increased uncertainty.

What Else: The potential for additional restrictions on U.S. companies doing business with Chinese firms under Trump's administration could also hurt ASML's business indirectly. If U.S.-based tech giants face hurdles in the Chinese market, their demand for advanced lithography machines from ASML may diminish. 
Additionally, rising economic and political tensions could fuel an ongoing shift in tech supply chains as companies reassess global expansion plans and sourcing, a trend that could complicate ASML's growth strategy over the long term.
Market analysts at JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co underscored Trump's proposed tariffs are likely to be "a direct headwind to global technology trade," which could hit companies like ASML more acutely than other sectors.
Given ASML's reliance on global market stability and free trade to maintain its dominance in semiconductor manufacturing equipment, the return of protectionist trade policies under Trump's administration raises significant concerns about the company's medium- to long-term outlook.
According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, ASML has a 52-week high of $1,110.09 and a 52-week low of $633.80.

Investors may be weighing future policy-making decisions that could impact the industry.
Trump&#8217;s return to office, alongside a Republican-controlled Senate and a leading position in the House of Representatives, signals a sharp pivot away from the climate-focused policies pursued by the Biden-Harris administration. 
What To Know: Investors are reacting to fears that Trump's proposed policy shifts could undermine the EV sector, including infrastructure developments crucial to ChargePoint's business model.
Throughout his campaign, Trump made it clear that he intends to roll back green energy subsidies and incentives that have been key to the growth of EV infrastructure. His tax policy agenda includes rescinding federal tax credits for green energy projects, a move expected to slow the pace of EV adoption as it would make EVs more expensive for consumers.

Under the Biden administration, the EV market benefited from substantial federal support, including charging infrastructure tax credits and rebates that have helped ChargePoint expand its network and accelerate growth. 
Trump&#8217;s proposed cuts to these initiatives raise questions about the future demand for charging stations, a primary revenue driver for ChargePoint.
What Else: Analysts are also concerned about the impact of Trump's proposed tariffs and trade policies on the EV industry. Trump's plan to impose a universal 10% tariff on all imports, alongside a 60% tariff on Chinese goods, could increase costs for manufacturers and suppliers in the EV supply chain, as many EV components, such as batteries, are still sourced internationally. 
For ChargePoint, which relies on a global supply chain for equipment and infrastructure, these tariffs could increase costs, squeeze margins and limit the availability of critical components, potentially delaying installations. Higher tariffs could also drive up prices for EVs, reducing consumer demand, and further suppressing the market for charging networks.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Should I Sell My CHPT Stock?</h1>
When deciding to hold on to or sell a stock, investors should consider their time horizon, unrealized gains and total return.
Shares of ChargePoint have decreased by 55.29% in the past year. An investor who bought shares of ChargePoint at the beginning of the year would take a loss of $0.94 per share if it was sold today. The stock has fallen 11.87% over the past month, meaning an investor who bought shares on Oct. 1 would see a capital loss of $0.08.
Investors may also consider market dynamics. The Relative Strength Index can indicate whether a stock is overbought or oversold. ChargePoint stock currently has an RSI of 75.68, indicating overbought conditions.

Cannabis Stocks Collapse After Trump Win: Major Players See Double-Digit Declines At Wednesday's Close

The U.S. election results have stirred up first reactions in the markets. Analysts from JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co see Donald Trump&#8217;s return to the White House as a potential shift in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities">commodity market</a>.
The bank&#8217;s equity research analyst, Bill Peterson, noted Trump&#8217;s history of deregulation and tariff-heavy policies, suggesting that this approach could lead to greater domestic support for the U.S. steel industry.
&#8220;We expect a broad-based positive knee-jerk reaction for steel equities," Peterson said in a note, pointing to the likely impact of more tariffs on Chinese and Mexican steel. In contrast, metals closely tied to the Chinese market, such as copper, may face downward pressure due to heightened U.S.-China trade tensions.
United States Steel Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/X#NYSE">X</a>) shares closed the day rallying over 8%. 
Concerns about tariffs are particularly high in Canada, where Toronto's commodity-heavy market is sensitive to U.S. economic policy. The Toronto Stock Exchange's materials sector has already felt the impact, with GreenFirst Forest Products (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ICLTF#OTC">ICLTF</a>) closing Wednesday down 3.40%.
While the U.S. dollar had periods of decoupling from its typically inverse correlation to commodity prices, that was not the case following the election results.
&#8220;A strong U.S. dollar has somewhat weighed on commodity prices," Douglas Porter, chief economist at BMO Capital Markets, said <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/tsx-futures-surge-more-than-1-after-trumps-election-victory-2024-11-06/">per</a> Reuters.
Notably, Porter was one of the voices pointing out the elephant in the room: the budget deficit issue. 
"The reality is that neither presidential candidate has offered any serious path to reining in the budget deficit — quite the opposite for the most part," he <a href="https://economics.bmo.com/en/publications/detail/8f1107e4-aca6-4249-8b06-e7f638059877/">wrote</a> in September.
Porter&#8217;s current insight reflects a broader worry that if Trump imposes aggressive tariffs, the Canadian market's reliance on resource exports could be at risk, impacting commodity-driven industries across North America.
Over his first term, Trump has consistently supported the U.S. mining sector. In 2020, he issued an executive order backing critical mineral mining, stating, "A strong America cannot be dependent on imports from foreign adversaries for the critical minerals necessary to maintain our economic and military strength."
Trump&#8217;s 25% tariff on imported steel and 10% on aluminum from 2018 was eventually revoked by the Biden administration.
Trump's emphasis on "American independence" in mining could signal more federal backing for domestic projects if he pursues similar policies in his second term.
Still, experts warn about the necessity from the demand side.
"There's not actually much being done on the demand side to make sure that these products are going to have an off-taker," said John Jacobs, a senior policy analyst at the Bipartisan Policy Center <a href="https://www.spglobal.com/marketintelligence/en/news-insights/latest-news-headlines/trump-harris-back-mining-but-producers-unsatisfied-83216353">per</a> S&amp;P Global.
Yet, the mining issue might be too complex for any administration to address over a single term. Currently, there are no operational U.S. mines focused on essential battery metals like cobalt or graphite and only one active nickel mine.

Duos Technologies Announces Major Partnerships and Market Expansion

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
While the innovation sphere constantly focuses on artificial intelligence these days, the top players in the field have gotten a lot of attention &ndash; maybe too much attention. Recently, we&rsquo;ve seen the mighty Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/nvda-stock-quote/">NVDA</a>) lose a step from its previously mercurial ways. And that may open the doors for considering small-cap <a href="https://investorplace.com/industries/technology/artificial-intelligence/">AI stocks</a> to buy.



Let&rsquo;s get the bad news out of the way first. Betting on small-capitalization firms of any sector presents higher risks than wagering on established enterprises. When you&rsquo;re dealing with consistently profitable companies, you enjoy a higher predictability flow. Unfortunately, higher predictability generally limits upside potentiality. The two characteristics typically share an inverse relationship.



Now, the positive side of the spectrum is that when smaller entities jump, they tend to do so quite robustly. That&rsquo;s due to the law of small numbers and other favorable dynamics. If you can handle the volatility risks, these small-cap AI stocks may bring more bang for the buck. Below are some ideas to consider.



<h2>Aeva Technologies (AEVA)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/aeva1600-300x169.png" alt="Mobile phone with logo of American autonomous driving company Aeva Inc. on screen in front of business web page. Focus on left of phone display. Unmodified photo."><div>Source: T. Schneider / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Headquartered in Mountain View, California, Aeva Technologies (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/aeva-stock-quote/">AEVA</a>) focuses on digital intelligence as it relates to automated mobility. It specializes in the design and development of advanced lidar sensing systems. Specifically, it harnesses the power of its proprietary 4D lidar solution, which enables rigorous calculations of surrounding objects in space and time. Long story short, Aeva is able to proactively avoid bad situations as opposed to merely reacting to them.



Scientifically, that makes AEVA one of the top small-cap stocks. Unfortunately, the market operates on more than just scientific fundamentals. There are also myriad other factors involved, including pure human emotions. Those emotions unfortunately are pessimistic, with shares slipping nearly 29% since the start of the year. So, what gives?



That&rsquo;s the reality of diminutive enterprises, I&rsquo;m afraid. Still, if you can handle the volatility, analysts believe that Aeva could post sales of $8.62 million this year. If so, that would just about represent a doubling from last year&rsquo;s result of $4.31 million.



Notably, in fiscal 2025, experts forecast the top line to hit $23.55 million, with a high-side target of $32.5 million. It&rsquo;s risky but an enticing example of small-cap AI stocks to consider.



<h2>Duos Technologies (DUOT)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/duot1600-300x169.png" alt="Industrial technology concept. Communication network. INDUSTRY 4.0. Factory automation."><div>Source: metamorworks / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Based in Jacksonville, Florida, Duos Technologies (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/duot-stock-quote/">DUOT</a>) broadly falls under the application software arena. <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/duot/company/">Per its public profile</a>, the company designs, develops and operates intelligent technology solutions. Its innovations in AI algorithms, computer vision, object detection and deep neural networks offer relevancies in the field of automated logistics and similar industrial and governmental solutions.



On paper, it&rsquo;s one of the most-promising ideas for small-cap AI stocks. To be fair, over the past 52 weeks, DUOT stock lost 61% of equity value. However, this volatility has been stabilizing. Since the beginning of this year, DUOT has only lost a bit more than 1%. Technically speaking, there may be a pattern of higher lows forming, which could attract market speculators.



Financially, the company could use some work. During the trailing 12 months (TTM), it incurred a net loss of $11.85 million. Revenue during the period reached only $5.9 million. However, in fiscal 2024, covering experts believe that sales could rise 95.2% to hit $14.58 million.



Moving out to fiscal 2025, the top line could expand by 39.2% to reach $20.3 million. It&rsquo;s a long shot but it could also be very enticing for the gambling type.



<h2>DarioHealth (DRIO)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/healthcare-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="Nurse holding a tablet with icons representing different aspects of healthcare and healthcare data representing CANO stock. Healthcare Tech Stocks. Healthcare Stocks to Buy"><div>Source: metamorworks / Shutterstock</div></div>Hailing from New York City, DarioHealth (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/drio-stock-quote/">DRIO</a>) falls under the healthcare sector. Specifically, it&rsquo;s involved in health information services. According to its <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/drio/company/">corporate profile</a>, DarioHealth provides a digital therapeutics platform along with a suite of solutions delivering personalized and dynamic interventions. Essentially, the company leverages AI to address the needs of patients with chronic conditions.



With the intersection of healthcare and AI promising to deliver profound innovations and positive outcomes, DarioHealth stands on viable ground. Wall Street appears to be waking up to the narrative. Yes, on a year-to-date basis, DRIO stock slipped more than 28%. However, last Friday, shares gained just over 11% in a single session. During that week, DRIO returned over 15%.



To be sure, DarioHealth is a higher-risk play among small-cap AI stocks. During the TTM period, it lost $49.35 million on sales of only $19.05 million. However, analysts believe that by the end of the year, the top line could expand by 72.6% to reach $35.13 million.



Patient investors will potentially want to wait until fiscal 2025. That&rsquo;s when sales could soar to $46.2 million, up 31.5% from projected 2024 revenue.

3 Small-Cap AI Stocks to Buy Now: June 2024

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
Artificial intelligence: everybody&rsquo;s talking about it, everybody loves it. Okay, I don&rsquo;t mean that literally but you get the point. Seemingly every time we turn to business headlines, it&rsquo;s right there. The machines are taking over. Therefore, <a href="https://investorplace.com/industries/technology/artificial-intelligence/">AI stocks</a> represent an excellent buying opportunity. And maybe that&rsquo;s the case but a little prudence may go a long way.



Here&rsquo;s what I mean. You can chase the biggest names in the sector right now. However, because so much enthusiasm has been baked in, it&rsquo;s almost as if these ideas are destined to flop from here on out. No, that&rsquo;s not a prediction but it wouldn&rsquo;t be surprising. For example, Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/nvda-stock-quote/">NVDA</a>) is down 11% in the trailing month. That might be a problem.



Rather than climb stratospheric heights only to later risk holding the bag, investors may want to take a prudent approach to their risk profile; that is, consider AI stocks that, relatively speaking, haven&rsquo;t enjoyed as much of the spotlight. Below are compelling ideas to consider.



<h2>UiPath (PATH)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/path1600-300x169.png" alt="In this photo illustration the UiPath (PATH) logo is displayed on a smartphone."><div>Source: rafapress / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Operating in the software infrastructure industry, UiPath (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/path-stock-quote/">PATH</a>) specializes in <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/PATH/profile/">robotic process automation or RPA</a>. Essentially, the company provides software to automate repetitive tasks. Thanks to its ability to improve efficiency and productivity, PATH represents one of the top-tier AI stocks. Still, it&rsquo;s not quite as appreciated as Nvidia.



Frankly, that could be the opportunity to pick up some shares before they rocket higher, possibly in the years ahead. Financially, the company is a strong performer. In the past four quarters, UiPath posted an average earnings per share of 14 cents. This beat the collective consensus view of 10 cents, yielding an earnings surprise of 79.3%.



What&rsquo;s even more attractive is the valuation. Right now, shares trade hands at 5.11X trailing-year sales. In contrast, the period between the first quarter of 2023 to Q1 2024 saw the metric hit 8.53X. Therefore, PATH could theoretically rise to its prior valuation.



Analysts are looking at current fiscal year sales to hit $1.41 billion. If so, that would represent a 7.7% lift. This is one of the AI stocks to keep on your radar.



<h2>Cognyte Software (CGNT)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/ai-artificial-intelligence-pen-chart-1600-300x169.jpg" alt='Hand with pen marking holographic chart with the word "AI". Artificial Intelligence'><div>Source: shutterstock.com/everything possible</div></div>Another enterprise in the software infrastructure arena, Cognyte Software (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/cgnt-stock-quote/">CGNT</a>) develops security analytics software that uses AI to detect, analyze and address cybersecurity threats. I don&rsquo;t really need to emphasize the importance of such a business model. With digital threats constantly rising and imposing severe costs to businesses, Cognyte is a must-watch enterprise.



Financially, the company is a bit of a mixed bag as it&rsquo;s not consistently profitable. For example, in the past four quarters, it posted an average loss per share of 1 cent. Still, it did beat massively with an EPS of 34 cents in the October quarter. Also, the collective consensus view in the past year was a loss of 14 cents. Thus, the &ldquo;earnings&rdquo; surprise came out to 851.8%.



Now, unlike UiPath, Cognyte trades at a relative premium to sales at 1.64X. In the past year, this metric sat at 1.26X. Nevertheless, context matters. Over the next two years, analysts see consistent growth. By the end of fiscal 2026 (calendar 2025), sales could hit $369.57 million. That&rsquo;s up from last year&rsquo;s print of $313.52 million. Therefore, CGNT ranks among the AI stocks to consider.



<h2>Duos Technologies (DUOT)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/duot1600-300x169.png" alt="Industrial technology concept. Communication network. INDUSTRY 4.0. Factory automation."><div>Source: metamorworks / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Finally, an application software specialist, Duos Technologies (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/duot-stock-quote/">DUOT</a>) provides intelligent security and analytical technology solutions leveraging digital intelligence. Primarily, Duos targets the transportation and logistics sectors for enhanced operational efficiencies. Also, the company plays a significant role in safety and security measures, especially for rail systems.



Financially, Duos represents a high-risk idea among AI stocks. In the past four quarters, the company posted an average loss per share of 41 cents. If that wasn&rsquo;t bad enough, the expected loss per share was 30 cents. Therefore, the quarterly surprise came out to almost 47% below parity.



Further, DUOT stock appears to carry a higher relative sales multiple of 3.72X. In the past year, this metric was noticeably lower at 2.08X. So, why bother considering Duos? It comes down to projected growth. Analysts are expected tons of it. By year&rsquo;s end, sales could jump to $14.58 million, up 95.2% from the prior year. It goes up again to $20.3 million in fiscal 2025.



Also, analysts see the loss per share in 2024 mitigated to 89 cents, better than last year&rsquo;s loss of $1.56. Therefore, it&rsquo;s well worth consideration.
