Share tips 2026: top stock picks of the week
Three stocks to buy
1. Oracle (NYSE: ORCL)
Barron's
Oracle's shares have fallen thanks to concerns over the US software company's $300 billion deal with OpenAI, and high debt and capital expenditure. Yet Oracle is “integral to the AI revolution” as it supplies computing power to key AI developers. Third-quarter sales beat forecasts, growing 22% to $17.2 billion, driven by revenue from cloud infrastructure. Analysts believe Oracle's use of AI features could bolster efficiency, and they expect sales to grow 35% annually until 2029. The stock is “cheap”. $141
2. Everplay Group (LSE: EVPL)
Investors' Chronicle
Video game developer Everplay is “undervalued” despite its “strong” underlying performance and cash generation. Revenue was stable in 2025 after it exited its low-margin physical distribution business. Excluding this area, sales grew 5%. The education platform StoryToys saw a 25% jump in revenue. Although fears about AI disrupting educational platforms saw its shares fall 40% over the past six months, Everplay expects “profitable growth” for the full year. The upcoming new release of its popular Hell Let Loose game and deals with Netflix and Amazon are potential growth drivers. 210p
3. UPS (NYSE: UPS)
Barron's
The US package delivery firm has struggled as the post-Covid shipping boom was followed by a downturn, a freight recession, increased competition and US tariffs. But with some challenges easing, UPS’s low valuation and high 7% dividend yield provide a cushion while investors wait for a turnaround. UPS has cut over 60,000 jobs and is focusing on higher-margin customers and expanding shipping capabilities. An “opportunity for long-term investors”. $98
One stock to sell
1. GetBusy (LSE: GETB)
Investors’ Chronicle
GetBusy, a provider of document-management software to professional-services firms, “isn't getting busy enough”. The company experienced double-digit growth over the past decade, but top-line growth was just 3% last year, and costs grew 10%, resulting in the eighth pre-tax loss in ten years. Although its US unit, SmartVault, reported a 16% increase in annual recurring revenue thanks to price hikes and new clients, GetBusy struggles with customer churn. The shares look “cheap”, but the company is not expected to generate a profit or free cash flow this year or next. “Sell”. 58p
Two stocks to consider
1. TPG (NASDAQ: TPG)
Barron's
TPG is a large US private-markets investor managing $300 billion in assets. Although its shares have slid recently, “hold on”. TPG has limited private-credit software exposure, and its private equity investments are expected to outperform. The hedge fund's current investments include AI pioneers such as OpenAI and Anthropic and some early AI unicorns, while it has also expanded into real estate, insurance, and wealth management. Its variable dividend policy should sustain a yield above 5%. TPG is a “buy-the-dip opportunity” ($39).
2. Softcat (LSE: SCT)
Investors' Chronicle
IT services company Softcat's interim hardware gross invoiced income soared 78% to £584 million owing to strong demand for the installation of new data centres, servers and computers driven by AI. The software division saw a 19% increase in income thanks to cybersecurity licensing. Growth was generated from new customers and selling to existing ones. Softcat serves 20% of the UK market. Despite growth expected to slow in the second half, it upgraded its full-year profit guidance. The recent 20% drop in the stock was “overdone”. Buy (1,188p).
