Let’s take a closer look at why these stocks made the AI watchlist.

Roku, Inc.

Based in the U.S., Roku provides streaming platforms and smart TV operating systems. Last week, ROKU stock was upgraded from Hold to Buy by TipRanks’ A.I. Analyst with a price target of $92, implying an upside of 13.6%.

According to A.I. Stock Analysis, Roku has earned an overall score of 75 out of 100. The stock’s score and upgraded rating are supported by an upbeat earnings call sentiment and favorable technical trends. Roku presents a compelling growth story driven by its expanding user base, growing ad revenues, and strategic content partnerships.

Within this context, TipRanks’ A.I. Analyst highlights key data points that support its rating. According to the KPI data, Roku’s streaming hours have steadily increased, with a significant surge in 2024 and early 2025, reflecting growing user engagement and platform strength. Below is the screenshot for reference.

AbbVie

Next on the list is pharmaceutical giant AbbVie, best known for its blockbuster immunology drug Humira, which helps relieve symptoms and slows the progression of autoimmune diseases. Notably, Humira is a top-selling prescription treatment and a key revenue driver for the company.

ABBV stock was also upgraded from Hold to Buy by TipRanks’ A.I. Analyst with a price target of $207. This reflects a growth rate of almost 12% from current levels. Meanwhile, AbbVieearns a comprehensive score of 73 out of 100 by TipRanks A.I. Stock Analysis. The company’s strong rating and score are backed by its solid financials, robust cash flow, and consistent operational profits, along with encouraging Q1 earnings.

On the bearish side, AbbVie faces concerns over a limited late-stage pipeline, which largely consists of label expansions with less growth potential than existing approvals. Additionally, its focus on therapeutic areas that may not scale as successfully as its immunology and inflammation (I&I) franchise adds to pipeline-related risks.

Abercrombie & Fitch

The third company is Abercrombie & Fitch, a global specialty retailer known for its premium casual wear and lifestyle apparel. TipRanks’ A.I. Analyst now rates ANF stock a Buy, with a price target of $88.

The company’s upgrade and a score of 76 out of 100 on TipRanks’ A.I. Stock Analysisdemonstrates solid financial health, with strong revenue growth and profitability supported by the Hollister brand’s performance. As shown in the screenshot below, Hollister posted an impressive 22% year-over-year sales growth for Q1 2025, outshining Abercrombie’s 4% decline, which was impacted by lower average unit retail (AUR) from winter inventory. This contrast highlights Hollister’s strong market position, especially in key categories like fleece, jeans, and skirts.

While the latest earnings call highlighted solid sales growth, it also pointed to pressure on gross margins and potential tariff-related headwinds. Notably, the operating margin declined to 9.3% from 12.7% a year ago, pressured by lower gross margins and challenges related to carryover inventory.
