AI infrastructure spending is still the defining trade of 2026, but the leadership inside the trade keeps rotating. June reminded investors of that NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA<\/a>) slid nearly 12% over the past month, Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT<\/a>) dropped nearly 17% and Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO<\/a>) gave back nearly 20%. <\/p>\n That pullback is the setup. Three names continue to compound the underlying AI buildout faster than the broader market, and each offers a different angle on the same megatrend. Here are three top AI stocks to buy in July. <\/p>\n NVIDIA (NVDA) <\/p>\n NVIDIA\u00a0just delivered the cleanest print of this cycle. Q1 FY2027 revenue hit $81.615 billion, up 85% year over year, with Data Center sales of $75.246 billion growing 92% and Data Center Networking revenue of $14.8 billion exploding 199% YoY. Management guided Q2 revenue to $91.0 billion, and that number excludes any China data center compute. <\/p>\n Act now: the analyst who called NVIDIA in 2010 just named his top 10 AI stocks \u2014 and Microsoft didn’t make the cut. Grab the names FREE today<\/a>. <\/p>\n The bull case is simple: NVIDIA is the only company selling both the compute and the networking fabric for the AI factory buildout, and growth is still accelerating, not decelerating. Revenue growth rose from 73% in Q4 to 85% in Q1, while free cash flow jumped to $48.554 billion. CEO Jensen Huang framed the moment plainly: “The buildout of AI factories, the largest infrastructure expansion in human history, is accelerating at extraordinary speed.” Capital return is finally backing up the rhetoric, with the dividend lifted from $0.01 to $0.25 and a new $80 billion buyback authorized. Shares trade at $198.37 with a P\/E of roughly 30, against 58 buy ratings and a $301.62 analyst consensus target. <\/p>\n Risk: The China overhang is real. NVIDIA shipped zero H20 compute to China in Q1, versus $4.6 billion a year earlier, and total supply commitments now sit at $119 billion. Any demand stumble against that obligation matters. <\/p>\n Story Continues <\/p>\n Microsoft (MSFT) <\/p>\n Microsoft is the rare mega-cap where the recent drawdown looks like an opportunity rather than a warning. The stock is down 23% year to date, even as the fundamentals strengthened. Q3 FY2026 revenue hit $82.886 billion, up 18%, with Intelligent Cloud at $34.681 billion growing 30% and Azure up 40%. CEO Satya Nadella highlighted the headline number on the call: “Our AI business surpassed an annual revenue run rate of $37 billion, up 123% year-over-year.” <\/p>\n The forward-revenue signal is even better. Commercial remaining performance obligations climbed to $627 billion, nearly doubling year over year. That is contracted future revenue. At a current price of $370.81 and a P\/E around 22, Microsoft trades well below the $561.11 analyst consensus, with 52 Buy ratings and zero Sell ratings. Operating margins of 46% and return on equity of 33% remain in a class of their own among hyperscalers. The thesis is that Azure’s RPO conversion compounds for years. <\/p>\n Risk: Capex is exploding. Q3 capital expenditures of $30.876 billion rose 84% YoY, and the payback window on that AI infrastructure is the single biggest variable for the next two years. <\/p>\n Broadcom (AVGO) <\/p>\n Broadcom\u00a0is the cleanest pure play on custom AI silicon. Q2 FY2026 revenue of $22.187 billion grew 48%, and AI semiconductor revenue of $10.8 billion jumped 143% YoY, ahead of management’s own forecast. The Q3 guide is the real story. CEO Hock Tan said: “The momentum continues and in Q3 we expect semiconductor revenue from AI to grow over 200 percent year-over-year to $16.0 billion.” <\/p>\n That implies total Q3 revenue near $29.4 billion with non-GAAP operating margins around 67%. Broadcom’s hyperscaler design wins (Google, Meta, Anthropic, OpenAI) give the custom XPU and Ethernet networking franchise a multi-year visibility window few semiconductor companies enjoy. Free cash flow hit $10.262 billion, or roughly 46% of revenue, and the company has now beaten EPS estimates for eight consecutive quarters. Polymarket’s resolved-market track record on Broadcom earnings stands at 100% accuracy across six resolved markets, reinforcing crowd conviction. Shares at $376.21 sit well under the $523.73 analyst consensus target, with 44 buy ratings and zero sells. <\/p>\n Risk: Customer concentration. A handful of hyperscalers drive the AI revenue line, and at a P\/E near 61, any single-customer order delay can compress the multiple quickly. The VMware-related debt load amplifies that sensitivity. <\/p>\n What to Watch in July <\/p>\n NVIDIA reports late August, so July action will be driven by macro tape and Blackwell supply commentary. Microsoft’s next print arrives in late July with the FY2026 close, and the Azure growth rate and capex trajectory will set the tone for the second half. Broadcom doesn’t report again until early September, leaving the $16 billion AI guide as the anchor. The common thread across all three: contracted demand, accelerating cash flow, and valuations that have already absorbed a meaningful June reset. <\/p>\n Act now: the analyst who called NVIDIA in 2010 just named his top 10 AI stocks \u2014 and Microsoft didn’t make the cut.
