Benzinga's 'Stock Whisper' Index: 5 Stocks Investors Are Secretly Monitoring But Not Talking About Yet Including 3 AI Names

Zinger Key Points
  • The Benzinga Stock Whisper Index looks at five stocks drawing increased attention from investors, but still under the radar.
  • Among the highest searched for names this week are those in the AI sector.

Investors are on the hunt for undervalued, underfollowed and emerging stocks and retail traders have countless methods at their disposal to uncover new information. For some, this may be overwhelming.

Benzinga’s Stock Whisper Index uses a combination of proprietary data and pattern recognition to showcase five stocks each week that are just under the surface and warrant attention.

The index layers editorial commentary to help make sense of why these stocks should be of interest and whether investors and casual readers should watch them. Here is a look at the Benzinga Stock Whisper Index for the week of April 13, 2023.

Marathon Digital Holdings MARA: Crypto minter Marathon Digital has seen shares moving higher thanks to the price of Bitcoin BTC/USD rising and shooting past the $30,000 level for the first time since June 2022. Bitcoin is up over 80% year-to-date in 2023 and companies related to the cryptocurrency sector have seen increased interest once again.

Amesite Inc AMST: One of the popular investment themes of 2023 has been artificial intelligence thanks to the surge of use cases and interest in ChatGPT, an AI chatbot from OpenAI. Amesite is a company that offers learning platforms for businesses, universities and government agencies. Since March, the company has unveiled multiple initiatives aimed at expanding its ability to harness ChatGPT for the benefit of its customers. The stock has seen increased interest thanks to its mentions of ChatGPT.

Guardforce AI Co GFAI: Another company benefitting from the increased focus on artificial intelligence is Guardfoce, which has AI in its name and in its ticker. The stock has also seen heavy mention as a short squeeze candidate, with an increasing percent of its float short and a high cost to borrow on shares of 198.6% according to Fintel.

T Stamp Inc IDAI: Completing this week’s stocks soaring in popularity and interest thanks to artificial intelligence is T Stamp, another company that has AI in its ticker. The company, which develops and markets identity authentication software solutions, was recently awarded several new patents related to artificial intelligence-based biometric authentication technology. T Stamp was also recently named as one of the fastest growing company in the United States by the Financial Times.

Cutera Inc CUTR: Medical device company Cutera has seen increased investor interest this week, thanks in large part to movement in its executive leadership team. The company announced the termination of both its Executive Chairman and CEO. The company named an interim CEO and said a search for a permanent replacement is underway. Cutera also withdrew full year guidance due to the management changes. On Thursday, it was announced that the former CEO and Executive Chairman have filed lawsuits against the company related to their firings. Shares of Cutera are down over 50% year-to-date in 2023 and could see continued pressure until the management cases are resolved.
