Investors looking for the top stock winners of 2026 may not need to search far as some small-cap ETFs have already proven to own them before they skyrocketed by over 400%. The AI boom, which has been showcased by giants like Alphabet and Nvidia, has taken on a new dimension with companies like Dell Technologies and Hewlett Packard transforming into significant AI players. Dell Technologies witnessed a 37% jump post Q1 FY27 earnings, seeing a surge in non-GAAP EPS to $4.86, $24.4 billion in AI orders, and a $60 billion AI-server outlook driving guidance to $165-$169 billion.

Further highlighting the positive trajectory of Dell Technologies, the company has been upgraded to a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), indicating a growing sense of optimism about the company's future earnings. This upgrade is expected to drive the stock even higher in the near term. Another AI infrastructure stock, often underrated, has seen significant growth following its latest quarterly report and remains attractively valued considering its potential for further development.

Dell Technologies has solidified its position as a major AI infrastructure integrator, showcasing its prowess in the market. With Q1 FY27 results indicating significant growth in sales, a raised revenue outlook, and strong operating leverage and cash flow, the company is accelerating its position in the AI space. Additionally, with capital returns totaling $2.1 billion in Q1 and a non-GAAP EPS guidance of $17.90, Dell Technologies is poised for continued success in the AI market.

Despite the positive momentum, some analysts suggest that Dell Technologies may be reaching its valuation peak, with the stock looking stretched at $435.31. As momentum traders push the stock price, concerns are raised about its sustainability above the $460 mark it reached recently. Nevertheless, Dell Technologies continues to receive recognition in the industry, with Penguin Solutions being awarded the 2026 Dell Technologies AI Partner of the Year, solidifying Dell's position in the AI space.

Amidst a changing landscape in the stock market, companies that outperform expectations are no longer solely rewarded for beating earnings estimates. The AI boom has shifted the rules, leading to new phrases being recognized as crucial for stock market success. With Dell Technologies experiencing a significant surge in stock prices, investors must carefully evaluate whether to buy, sell, or hold as the company continues to navigate the rapidly evolving AI market landscape.
