Nayax Ltd. (NYAX): Among the Tech Stocks That Are Up the Most So Far in 2025
Most tech stocks haven't been doing well so far this year, but this isn't a problem that all tech stocks face. The technology sector is broad, and there are always some stocks that still do well regardless of the broader market environment.
Many of these companies are leading the way in artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and cybersecurity. Their ability to adapt and launch new solutions has set them apart from the pack. For example, firms that reported robust growth in large customer contracts or unveiled breakthrough AI tools have seen their shares surge, even as industry giants have struggled with market volatility.
It's worth looking into these winners if you're looking for opportunities in this market.
For this article, I screened the best-performing tech stocks year-to-date.
I will also mention the number of hedge fund investors in these stocks. Why are we interested in the stocks that hedge funds pile into?
