These top-quality stocks are on sale right now. You might expect artificial intelligence (AI) stocks to trade for exorbitant prices these days, considering their popularity over the past couple of years. Investors have piled into AI players -- hoping to win big as they did in the past with other technology shifts, such as the emergence of the internet or the development of smartphones. This is because AI, like those earlier innovations, also promises a revolution that may supercharge earnings growth. Now, here's some good news: Certain top-quality AI stocks actually remain reasonably priced today, offering you the opportunity to get in on AI or add to your current AI holdings. Let's check out two that are trading at bargain prices to kick off 2026. 1. Meta Platforms Meta Platforms (META 2.95%) delighted investors with its latest quarterly earnings report, delivering double-digit revenue growth to $59 billion and predicting an important year for AI. But even as the stock climbed following the report, valuation still remains interesting. In fact, Meta looks dirt cheap, trading for only 24x forward earnings estimates. Expand NASDAQ : META Meta Platforms Today's Change ( -2.95 %) $ -21.81 Current Price $ 716.50 Key Data Points Market Cap $1.8T Day's Range $ 713.59 - $ 732.17 52wk Range $ 479.80 - $ 796.25 Volume 24M Avg Vol 19M Gross Margin 82.00 % Dividend Yield 0.29 % You probably know the company best for its social media apps, such as Facebook and Instagram -- and the apps drive revenue as advertisers pay for space on these platforms. But Meta also is becoming a significant AI player, developing key tools like large language models and putting them to work to improve the Meta business. Meta chief Mark Zuckerberg aims to start shipping new AI models and products in the next few months, so now, ahead of that potential growth catalyst, is a great moment to get in on Meta. 2. Amazon Amazon (AMZN 1.02%) is another player you may not immediately associate with AI -- inste...

Make better investment decisions with Simply Wall St's easy, visual tools that give you a competitive edge. Constellation Energy (NasdaqGS:CEG) has closed its acquisition of Calpine, expanding its US power generation portfolio. The company has agreed long term renewable power deals with Microsoft and Meta to supply energy for AI focused data centers. Regulators have extended licenses for several Constellation nuclear plants, while recent government decisions have affected certain tech related nuclear power agreements. Constellation Energy now sits at the center of several big themes for investors, from AI driven power demand to the role of nuclear and renewables in the US grid. The stock trades at $280.68, with a 3 year return that is very large, while the 30 day return shows a 20.5% decline and the year to date move stands at a 23.4% decline. That mix of long term strength and recent pressure frames how you might think about these new developments. The Calpine acquisition and fresh agreements with Microsoft and Meta could reshape Constellation's revenue mix and exposure to long term contracts, while nuclear license extensions may support the company's clean energy profile. At the same time, shifts in government decisions around tech related nuclear deals highlight the role of policy risk for Constellation's future project pipeline.

The fitness innovator's challenges have resulted in a beaten-down stock price. Peloton (PTON 2.44%) shares are currently trading 97% below their peak (as of Jan. 29), a high-water mark that was hit when the business was experiencing incredible demand for its tech-enhanced exercise equipment during the depths of the COVID-19 pandemic. It's been a disappointing story since then, as the company deals with significantly weaker demand. Maybe it's time for the business to open itself up as a buyout target. Assuming there's a 25% premium, Peloton would cost a suitor about $3 billion, based on its current market cap. Getting bought by a trillion-dollar "Magnificent Seven" stock makes for an interesting hypothetical. This tie-up might make sense Peloton's areas of strength are its premium brand, innovative hardware, and integrated software and content. Combined, this creates the company's valuable ecosystem. Apple (AAPL +0.62%), the $3.8 trillion tech titan, has all of these same attributes. Of course, Apple's business is light-years ahead of Peloton in these areas. Its brand name is arguably the most valuable in the world. And it sells insanely popular products and services. Nonetheless, Apple buying Peloton makes sense financially. For starters, the purchase price is a rounding error. Apple reported $42 billion of net income in the most recent quarter (Q1 2026, ended Dec. 27). This means that it took the business only about one week to generate $3 billion in profit. Even if buying Peloton ends up being a financial mistake, the loss wouldn't dent Apple's operations in the slightest. From a strategic perspective, the tie-up could also work. Apple would expand its product portfolio, like it did when it bought Beats for $3 billion in 2014. Peloton's digital app could be integrated into Apple's Fitness+. Peloton equipment could be on display for sale in designated areas at Apple stores. Apple would gain more data. And it could cross-sell between what might be an overlapping con...

Don Lemon and Georgia Fort vow to continue reporting following arrests tied to anti-ICE protest toggle caption Mario Tama/Getty Images Independent journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort have vowed to continue reporting, following their arrests after covering an anti-ICE protest at a church in Minnesota. Lemon, a former CNN anchor, and Fort, a Minnesota reporter, were released from federal custody on Friday, following criticism from human rights advocates and journalism organizations over their arrests. A federal grand jury in Minnesota indicted Fort and Lemon on charges related to the interruption of a religious service at the Cities Church in St. Paul, where a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement official is a pastor. Both Fort and Lemon have maintained that they were not participating in the protest at the church but were reporting on the incident as journalists. Sponsor Message Speaking during his YouTube show on Friday, Lemon said that this is a moment for journalists around the world "to stand up for each other." "It may have started with people having their due process rights violated on the streets, violently violated on the streets. But now they're trying to silence journalists. And I will not be silenced," Lemon said on his show. Fort, a Minnesota native who filmed her arrest as federal agents showed up to her home early Friday, told CNN's Anderson Cooper shortly after her release that she will "continue to tell the stories of my community." She also said the arrests have sent "a chilling message" to the media industry. "As journalists, we never want to be the story. But unfortunately, I did find myself in a predicament where I felt that I needed to be able to tell my own story, that I needed the world to see that journalism is on trial," Fort said on Anderson Cooper 360°. She added: "If they can criminalize a journalist here in Minnesota, whether you're independent or not, I think that we've seen a track record where this is just going to continue to e...

Hong Kong authorities have uncovered robot-operated accounts booking public indoor sports venues just a week after a new anti-touting policy took effect, prompting experts to call for stronger measures against scalping. A Leisure and Cultural Services Department spokesman told the South China Morning Post that authorities had detected bots being used to book public indoor sports venues on its SmartPlay app. “We have identified accounts using different means, computer programmes or other automated tools to conduct booking transactions or disrupt normal operations on SmartPlay and we are proactively handling these cases to tackle users who tout bookings,” the spokesman said. Advertisement But the department did not reveal how many accounts it had identified or how it weeded them out, citing the need to keep scalpers from evading its crackdown. The Leisure and Cultural Services Department has introduced a range of measures since January 21 to clamp down on rampant touting at indoor basketball and volleyball courts. Advertisement These include a 360-day booking ban without prior notice for accounts found using computer programmes or other automated tools.
