**New York, NY – April 29, 2025** – The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) has experienced a recent correction, falling nearly 7% since its November 2024 highs, reflecting economic uncertainties and geopolitical tensions. However, according to a new analysis by Insider Monkey, some Dow stocks are poised for growth in the next 12 months.

Insider Monkey ranked the 30 Dow stocks based on their one-year median potential upside, identifying the “best” and “worst” performers. Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) secured a strong fourth-place ranking, with analysts predicting a potential 38% upside, reaching $250 per share. Despite Q1 underperformance due to tariff concerns and increased operational costs, analysts remain bullish on Amazon’s diversified business model and dominant position in e-commerce and cloud computing.

While acknowledging the potential of Dow stocks, Insider Monkey emphasizes that AI stocks present even greater return potential within a shorter timeframe. The report highlights an unnamed AI stock that has outperformed the market since the beginning of 2025, even as other popular AI stocks experienced losses. The firm encourages readers to review its report detailing the “cheapest AI stock” for a potentially more lucrative investment opportunity.

The analysis incorporates data from Insider Monkey’s Q4 2024 hedge fund database, highlighting institutional investor trends.
