Will AI create the world’s first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an “Indispensable Monopoly” providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue »
A stock’s price doesn’t tell you everything about value. Some companies trade at under $5 per share and could be extremely overvalued. Likewise, you can find undervalued growth stocks that trade above $500 per share.
That said, true opportunities do exist: low-priced stocks backed by real, long-term growth potential. And while fractional shares make it easy to own even the priciest companies, there’s still something psychologically powerful about owning whole shares, be it one or thousands, in a company you believe in.
Here are two attractive businesses with real long-term growth potential whose share prices are also easy on your budget: Cipher Mining (NASDAQ: CIFR) and SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ: SOFI).
Cipher Mining addresses one of the biggest roadblocks in artificial intelligence (AI), the technology that has produced generational investing opportunities like Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) and Palantir (NASDAQ: PLTR). The company creates AI data centers that can handle intense workloads, and big tech needs these data centers to fuel their AI ambitions just as they require AI chips.
Morgan Stanley projects a 44 gigawatt shortage by 2028, and that will result in existing gigawatts trading at lofty premiums, including Cipher Mining’s 3.4 gigawatt pipeline. However, those gigawatts aren’t ready yet. It takes time for Cipher Mining to energize its AI data centers, and that delay may be the reason why the stock has been flat for a few months.
It has long-term deals with Amazon and Alphabet that translate into high annual recurring revenue. Cipher Mining has allocated 244 megawatts to Google-backed Fluidstack and 300 megawatts to Amazon. That means the company has tapped into less than 20% of its total pipeline.
The revenue from AI data centers hasn’t shown up yet because Cipher Mining has to put the finishing touches on sites that have secured long-term deals. Cipher Mining’s crypto revenue reached $71 million in Q3 2025, and the Amazon deal alone will more than double the company’s total revenue.
Cipher Mining wrapped up the third quarter of 2025 with $1.2 billion in cash on its balance sheet. That capital will give it enough resources to build out more AI data centers, which will eventually help the company secure more deals. Cipher Mining can attract new customers or expand its existing agreements with Amazon and Alphabet.
