If you’re looking for AI stocks<\/a> to add to your portfolio, there’s no shortage of options. Here are two standouts to consider.<\/p>\n Image source: The Motley Fool.<\/p>\n 1. Nvidia<\/p>\n Nvidia (NVDA<\/a> 0.04%) is the leading chipmaker, with a 92% share of the global graphics processing unit (GPU)<\/a> market. That dominance has resulted in explosive growth as companies invest in GPUs for their AI data centers. As recently as the fourth quarter of its 2022 fiscal year, Nvidia reported $3.3 billion in data center revenue, second to its gaming segment, which brought in $3.4 billion.<\/p>\n In the third quarter of its 2026 fiscal year (ended Oct. 26, 2025), Nvidia made $51.2 billion in data center revenue, $4.3 billion from gaming, and $57 billion overall.<\/p>\n Today’s Change<\/p>\n (-0.04%) $-0.07<\/p>\n Current Price<\/p>\n $184.87<\/p>\n Key Data Points<\/p>\n Market Cap<\/p>\n $4.5T<\/p>\n Day’s Range<\/p>\n $183.41 – $188.10<\/p>\n 52wk Range<\/p>\n $86.62 – $212.19<\/p>\n Volume<\/p>\n 3M<\/p>\n Avg Vol<\/p>\n 184M<\/p>\n Gross Margin<\/p>\n 70.05%<\/p>\n Dividend Yield<\/p>\n 0.02%<\/p>\n Data center<\/a> spending is likely to continue increasing from here. McKinsey estimates that data centers will require $6.7 trillion in spending by 2030 to meet global demands for computing power. Nvidia should be able to capture a sizable portion of that spending, especially now that it introduces new GPU architectures on a yearly basis. Its latest, the Rubin platform, reportedly delivers up to a 10x reduction in inference token cost compared with the Blackwell platform.<\/p>\n 2. Meta Platforms<\/p>\n Meta Platforms (META<\/a> 2.25%) is investing heavily in the pursuit of AI superintelligence<\/a> — a theoretical version of AI that far exceeds human intelligence. It expects 2025 capital expenditures (capex) to be between $70 billion and $72 billion, and that 2026 capex spending will be “notably larger.”<\/p>\n Investors are concerned about how much Meta is spending on AI, and the company’s stock fell after its earnings release for the third quarter of 2025. What often gets lost with the focus on Meta’s spending is that it’s already seeing positive results from its use of AI technology.<\/p>\n Today’s Change<\/p>\n (-2.25%) $-14.46<\/p>\n Current Price<\/p>\n $627.51<\/p>\n Key Data Points<\/p>\n Market Cap<\/p>\n $1.6T<\/p>\n Day’s Range<\/p>\n $624.14 – $642.04<\/p>\n 52wk Range<\/p>\n $479.80 – $796.25<\/p>\n Volume<\/p>\n 793K<\/p>\n Avg Vol<\/p>\n 18M<\/p>\n Gross Margin<\/p>\n 82.00%<\/p>\n Dividend Yield<\/p>\n 0.33%<\/p>\n During the company’s third-quarter earnings call, CEO Mark Zuckerberg stated that the annual run rate for its AI-powered ad tools has surpassed $60 billion. Meta’s AI recommendation systems are leading to users spending more time on its social media platforms, including a 5% increase in time spent on Facebook in the third quarter and a 30% increase in video time spent on Instagram compared to the prior year.<\/p>\n![\"An](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/1768330149_448_.png\"\/)
