10 Information Technology Stocks With Whale Alerts In Today's Session

Benchmark analyst Cody Acree reiterated Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) with a Buy and a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AMD/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">$170&nbsp;price target</a>.
Acree recently hosted AMD&#8217;s Jean Hu, CFO, for a discussion with investors. He came away with further conviction in AMD&#8217;s strong fundamental position, its increasing competitiveness in the AI market, and its continued market share gains in both the Client and Server markets versus Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>).

<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="750" height="650" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/18102022/newplot-12.png" alt="" class="wp-image-787133" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/18102022/newplot-12.png 750w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/18102022/newplot-12-300x260.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></figure>
The analyst noted a focus on the company&#8217;s AI ramp of its next-generation MI350 GPU with a pulled-ahead schedule of mid-year 2025 versus the prior schedule of the second half. With the transition, AMD expects first-half 2025 Data Center revenue to be flat due to softer seasonality and its Instinct revenue to be flat as customers wait for the launch of the new platform.
AMD broadly expects MI350 to be much more directly competitive with Nvidia Corp&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) Blackwell, with MI400 likely to be technically competitive with Rubin. Nvidia&#8217;s Blackwell delays and accelerated move-up of the MI350 launch proved that AMD is closing the competitive gap.
AMD noted ASICs only make up about 20% of the total AI silicon opportunity, thereby remaining adamant about not changing its focus priority from its primary GPU roadmap.
The analyst said that the company&#8217;s Client business continues to look solid as AMD gains market share momentum in both the Desktop and Notebook markets.
At a high level, for 2025, AMD is forecasting its PC TAM to grow by a mid-single-digit percentage year-on-year. However, based on the breadth of its client CPU portfolio and strong design win momentum, the company expects to grow its Client segment revenue well ahead of the market.
While the company expects its Client business to see normal first-quarter softer seasonality, in 2025, it is benefiting from its first win at Dell Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) in the commercial client space.
In the server market, AMD continues to benefit from the strong adoption of its Gen 4 and new Gen 5 designs.
The company is seeing its EPYC processors gaining traction thanks to Cisco Systems Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>), Dell, and Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>).
Amazon.Com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Amazon Web Services, Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>), Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google, Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) launched over 100 AMD general-purpose and AI instances in just the fourth quarter.
In the fourth quarter, EPYC CPU sales grew by a strong double-digit percentage annually, thanks to high-volume deployments with ServiceNow Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOW#NYSE">NOW</a>), Verizon Communications Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>), Visa Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/V#NYSE">V</a>), and others. Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) exclusively used MI300X to power their Llama 405B frontier model on meta.ai.
Microsoft leveraged MI300X to power multiple GPT-4-based Copilot services.
With over 100 customer engagements in AI, AMD expanded its ROCm software suite.
International Business Machines Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NYSE">IBM</a>), DigitalOcean Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DOCN#NYSE">DOCN</a>), and several other AI-focused Cloud Service Providers have begun deploying AMD Instinct accelerators for new instances. IBM also announced plans to enable MI300X on their watsonx.ai and data platform for training and deploying enterprise-ready generative AI applications.
AMD began volume production of MI325X in the fourth quarter. MI325 delivers significant performance and TCO advantages compared to competitive offerings, including H100.
AMD has passed key milestones and received unconditional regulatory approvals regarding its acquisition of ZT Systems. Additionally, AMD expects to divest ZT Systems&#8217; data center infrastructure production capabilities.
While industry capacity will likely remain tight, AMD noted it has successfully secured sufficient wafer capacity to support its customers&#8217; planned ramps through the end of this year and into 2026.
Price Action: AMD stock is up 1.10% at $114.35 at the last check on Tuesday.

The company cut its fiscal year 2025 guidance to $23.5 billion—$25 billion from its previous forecast of $26 billion—$30 billion (versus the $24.92 billion consensus). It projected fiscal year 2026 revenue of $40 billion versus the $29.92 billion consensus.

Analysts rerated the stock upon the results.
<ul>
<li>Wedbush analyst Matt Bryson maintained Super Micro with a Neutral and raised the price target from $24 to $40.</li>
<li>JP Morgan analyst Samik Chatterjee maintained Super Micro with an Underweight and raised the price target from $23 to $35.</li>
<li>Needham analyst Quinn Bolton suspended the rating on Super Micro.</li>
</ul>
Wedbush: Super Micro&#8217;s softer, uninspiring results, the vision of a significantly more robust future, and plans to file its financials before the deadline should reduce uncertainty.
Bryson expects the business to expand considerably in the first half of 2026. However, he is also hesitant to model as aggressively as management forecasts.
JP Morgan: Despite the near-term softness, Super Micro surprised with an updated full-year guide, which implied a strong revenue inflection that the company expects will start a robust AI server revenue cycle.
The price target boost reflects increased conviction from the management team to meet regulatory deadlines.
Needham: Super Micro&#8217;s preliminary revenue and gross margin results fell slightly short of expectations as customers waited to order new Blackwell systems and aggressive pricing on Hopper products.
Bolton maintained his suspended rating as he awaited the filing of the annual and quarterly reports.
Investors can gain exposure to Super Micro through Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VTI#NYSE">VTI</a>) and Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VOO#NYSE">VOO</a>).

Super Micro Rides AI Server Boom, Analysts See Big 2026 Growth Despite Near-Term Challenges

Super Micro Computer Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) is trading 6.6% higher in pre-market on Wednesday as it announced yesterday that it would meet the SEC filing deadline to avoid delisting.
What Happened: SMCI anticipates submitting its delayed annual and quarterly reports to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by the Nasdaq&#8217;s Feb. 25 deadline. The Dell (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) rival had postponed these filings following accusations of accounting violations by short-selling firm Hindenburg Research. 
SMCI also reported preliminary second-quarter earnings that trailed Wall Street's expectations, leading to a 19% decline in its shares after the market closed yesterday. However, the stock quickly rebounded, showing a 3% increase late Tuesday.

Why It Matters: Despite the accounting accusations and regulatory investigations, SMCI&#8217;s second-quarter revenue witnessed a 54% rise from the past year. They also presented an aspirational growth plan, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43646949/supermicro-sees-conservative-40-billion-revenue-target-despite-auditor-exit-stocks-50-slide">forecasting $40 billion in revenue </a>for the fiscal year 2026. CEO Charles Liang described this target as a "conservative estimation."
Super Micro&#8217;s announcement comes after a tumultuous year marked by controversies and an investigation into its accounting practices. The company&#8217;s delayed SEC filings risked a Nasdaq delisting, and its accountant resigned. Despite these challenges, Super Micro has hired a new accountant and maintains that no indication of wrongdoing was found in an independent review.&nbsp;
Robust revenue growth, fueled by the company&#8217;s strategic position in the AI sector, has contributed to the recovery in its share price.

The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence">AI server boom</a> that once had investors piling into U.S.-branded server stocks is losing steam, and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43588299/us-stocks-to-open-on-a-positive-note-after-a-string-of-bad-mondays-recent-dip-has-reached-its-low-point-says-technical-analyst">Wall Street isn't thrilled</a>. 
JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee sees mounting near-term challenges for Dell Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) and Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPE#NYSE">HPE</a>), but he's siding with Dell as the better bet in this AI reset.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The AI Server Party Winds Down</h2>
For months, AI servers were the golden goose, but concerns are mounting. Chatterjee outlines four key issues: 
<ol>
<li>Margin pressure from advanced AI compute configurations, </li>
<li>A more competitive landscape with HPE and Lenovo ramping up, </li>
<li>Supply constraints from Nvidia Corp's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) Blackwell shipments, and </li>
<li>Doubts about AI training intensity following DeepSeek's recent innovation.</li>
</ol>
The result? 
Dell is down 8% year-to-date and off 26% from recent highs, while HPE has stayed flat.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Dell: AI Hangover But A Broader Recovery Looms</h2>
Dell has taken a beating as AI server revenue expectations cooled and broader IT spending remains sluggish. Chatterjee's forecast trims consensus revenue growth from high-single digits to 4% and EPS growth from 19% to 11%. But with Dell's valuation at just 12x forward earnings, the downside risk appears contained.
JPMorgan sees a turnaround potential later in the year as traditional IT spending picks up.
For the fourth quarter, Dell's earnings are expected to slightly exceed consensus, with revenue at $24.8 billion (+11% YoY) and EPS at $2.60 (vs. consensus of $2.52). However, first quarter guidance looks softer, with projected revenue of $23.0 billion (+3% YoY) and EPS of $1.55, below consensus at $1.80. 
The bigger challenge? AI server revenue is moderating while traditional IT demand isn't bouncing back fast enough.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">HP Enterprise: AI Server Optimism Keeps It Afloat</h2>
HPE has fared better in 2024, thanks in part to optimism around a high-profile deal with Elon Musk's xAI. But that doesn't mean it's in the clear. AI server revenue is expected to decline in the near term due to limited Blackwell supply and waning demand for Hopper-based systems.
For the first quarter, HPE should hit consensus estimates with revenue of $7.8 billion (+15% YoY) and EPS of $0.49. But the second quarter guidance may disappoint, with revenue projected at $7.8 billion (+9% YoY) and EPS of $0.46, trailing consensus of $0.50. 
While HPE benefits from hybrid cloud strength, its AI server momentum isn't expected to repeat early in FY25.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Verdict: Dell Over HPE</h2>
JPMorgan acknowledges that both companies face headwinds, but Dell's stock has already absorbed much of the AI server reset. While HPE has an xAI win keeping sentiment higher, Dell's broader enterprise IT recovery gives it a stronger upside story heading into the second half of 2024.
Bottom line? 
The AI server craze is cooling, but for those looking to position for a rebound, Dell appears to be the more de-risked bet.
