10 Stocks Under $10

10 Stocks to Buy under $10 in 2026

Finding value in the sub-$10 stock market isn’t about finding “cheap” stocks; it’s about identifying significant mispricings. The 10 companies on this list were chosen because each experienced a major, fundamental catalyst in late 2025. The market has likely not yet priced in these transformative events, setting the stage for a potential re-rating in 2026. This list focuses on companies with new AI partnerships, critical financial turnarounds, and major contract wins.

Here are 10 stocks under $10 with major catalysts heading into 2026.

  • Special: America’s Top Billionaires Quietly Backing This Startup

    • 1. Stagwell (STGW)

    Stagwell is being re-priced by the market as an AI company, not a legacy marketing firm. This is thanks to its new, game-changing partnership with Palantir announced in November 2025 to launch an AI-driven marketing platform1.1 At 0.39x sales, the stock appears deeply undervalued, as the market has not yet priced in the growth potential from its new AI platforms.3

    2. Amplify Energy (AMPY)

    Amplify Energy just announced a transformative $220.0 million asset sale in November 2025.4 This deal will eliminate all of its $123.0 million in net debt, leaving it with a significant cash hoard.4 The 2026 thesis is that AMPY is now a simplified, debt-free, cash-rich pure-play on its best assets, making it a compelling value case and a prime short-squeeze candidate, given its 10.74% short interest.6

    3. Rekor Systems (REKR)

    Rekor has just validated its AI-driven “Data-as-a-Service” model. In October 2025, it signed its largest-ever contract ($50M+ with the Georgia DOT) and landed new deals with California and Texas.7 The company is at a financial inflection point, pre-announcing record Q3 revenue, 61%+ gross margins, and a >65% sequential reduction in its EBITDA loss, all pointing to a profitable 2026.7

    4. Krispy Kreme (DNUT)

    Krispy Kreme is a classic “battleground” stock, with a massive 31.71% of its float sold short by investors betting on failure.10 However, its November 6, 2025, earnings report just proved the bears wrong. The company delivered a massive profitability beat (a profit vs. an expected loss) 11 and positive free cash flow 13, signaling its turnaround is working and a major short squeeze could be next.

  • Special: This Overlooked AI Stock Could be at a Pivotal Moment

    • 5. Inovio Pharmaceuticals (INO)

    This is a high-risk, event-driven play. Inovio just completed its FDA submission for its first potential product, INO-3107, on November 3, 2025.14 This sets up a single, high-stakes catalyst: a final FDA approval decision in mid-2026.14 The market is pricing in failure, but an approval would transform this nano-cap company overnight.

    6. Melco Resorts & Entertainment (MLCO)

    This is a pure value play. As one of only six licensed Macao casino operators, Melco has a “narrow economic moat” and is ideally placed to benefit from China’s reopening.16 Recent analysis shows the stock is trading 48% below its $10.80 fair value estimate, offering a clear, value-driven path for a potential double in 2026.16

    7. Dolphin Entertainment (DLPN)

    The catalyst here is a classic bullish signal: the CEO just bought his own stock in the open market on November 3, 2025.17 This insider buy signals confidence in the company’s recent pivot to profitability 18 and its new, high-margin “scalable IP” products.19 At less than 0.4x sales, the nano-cap stock appears deeply undervalued.20

    8. Flux Power (FLUX)

    Flux Power is a “growth-at-a-reasonable-price” (GARP) play. This EV and aerospace battery supplier is projected to see 25% annual revenue growth and is at a key inflection point, with analysts forecasting its EPS to swing from a loss to a $0.53 profit by 2026.21 The stock is currently mispriced at just 8x those 2026 earnings.21

    9. Powerfleet (AIOT)

    Powerfleet is an under-the-radar AI/IoT company that has recently received “Strong Buy” ratings from top-ranked, 5-star analysts in November 2025.22 The thesis is a bet on this information gap closing, allowing investors to follow the “smart money” into an under-covered growth story before the rest of the market catches on.

    10. Genius Sports (GENI)

    Genius Sports is a “picks and shovels” leader in the booming sports data market, providing critical B2B services to the global betting industry. The catalyst is the powerful consensus from Wall Street: as of November 2025, top-ranked analysts are unanimously bullish, with “all Buy ratings” on the sub-$10 stock.23

    Top Conviction Pick for 2026: Rekor Systems (REKR)
    While all 10 stocks present compelling opportunities, Rekor Systems (REKR) stands out. It’s not just one catalyst, but a powerful combination in late 2025 that makes it the top pick.

    1. Commercial Validation: It secured its largest-ever contract ($50M+) with the Georgia DOT.7
    2. Market Expansion: It immediately followed up with new deals with California and Texas.8
    3. Financial Proof: It pre-announced record revenue, 61-65% gross margins, and a >65% sequential reduction in its EBITDA loss.7

    Rekor is at the precise moment of transforming from a speculative idea into a validated, high-margin AI leader. The market has not yet priced in this 2026 reality.
