Wouldn’t it be incredible if you had invested $10,000 in Apple stock in 2010 and seen it grow to over $270,000 today, or in Nvidia, yielding over $2 million from the same initial investment? While these figures are astonishing, Apple and Nvidia are now household names, and the likelihood of them continuing to grow at such extraordinary rates in the future is low. Our quest is to find the next generation of companies with similar growth potential, before they become widely recognized.
Instead of relying on mainstream hype or gurus, a strategic approach was taken using ChatGPT. The goal was not just to ask “what stock should I buy,” but to build a series of prompts that would help search where other investors aren’t looking. The aim was to identify real stocks with solid fundamentals and genuine 100x potential. Did ChatGPT deliver? Let’s explore the process.
The Approach: Targeted Prompts for Undiscovered Potential
Finding 100x opportunities requires looking beyond the obvious, starting with a large pool of stocks, and then meticulously narrowing them down. This is where the intelligent use of ChatGPT prompts becomes invaluable.
Here are the specific prompts that guided this initial search:
Prompt
What small cap public companies are getting unusual attention on places like Reddit and Twitter, especially the ones people think could 100x but that aren't widely covered by the mainstream media or YouTube channel?"Explanation and Utility: This prompt is a massive time-saver, preventing countless hours of manual scrolling through Reddit or Twitter. It helps distill discussions in niche communities to identify stocks that are gaining traction among early adopters but remain under the radar of broader financial media.
Initial Ideas: Some of the first names that emerged were CDLR (an offshore wind energy play), TYBN (a biotech company), and NBIS (an AI infrastructure play). AI is a very hot space with 100x potential.
Prompt
What public companies are building the infrastructure behind fast growing tech trends like AI, EV, clean energy, space tech or defense? They also have to be under $10 billion in market cap.Explanation and Utility: This prompt focuses on the foundational companies that enable major technological shifts. These “picks and shovels” businesses often provide more stable growth as they support an entire ecosystem, rather than being reliant on the success of a single end-product.
Interesting Names: ChatGPT provided several intriguing companies:
CoreWeave: An AI infrastructure company that recently IPO’d and showed an impressive 420% year-over-year revenue increase in its most recent quarter.
Power Industries: Involved in electric power distribution and control systems within the EV infrastructure space.
QuantumCape and ADSSE in Space Tech.
RDWS: A space-based cellular broadband network provider.
Prompt
What public companies have less than five analyst ratings on Yahoo Finance or other major brokerage platforms?Explanation and Utility: The rationale here is that companies not heavily covered by financial analysts might be underfollowed and potentially undervalued, provided they demonstrate solid growth and profitability.
Interesting Discoveries: This prompt unearthed some compelling names:
Credito Technology Group: Specializes in connectivity solutions for data infrastructure markets and is growing its earnings at 95% annually.
Innovix: A company making lithium-ion batteries for 3D architecture, growing at 56% annually.
ESTS: Building the first space-based cellular broadband network directly accessible by mobile phones, growing at 65% annually.
From Broad to Narrow: Making the Selection
In total, these initial prompts generated a list of about 20 potential companies. To narrow down this significant list, ChatGPT was instructed to screen for specific criteria: industry interest, current profitability, and the company’s revenue growth.
This rigorous filtering process yielded a shortlist of eight promising opportunities, including:
CDLR: The offshore wind energy company, which is both profitable and exhibiting very fast revenue growth.
Nebius Group (NBIS): An AI infrastructure play that, while not yet profitable (common for early-stage companies, as even Nvidia and Apple were unprofitable at points), is showing a remarkable 385% year-over-year revenue growth.
Power Industries: Growing revenue at 69.2% year-over-year.
CoreWeave: With its impressive 420% revenue growth.
Space Mobile: Showing 43% revenue growth.
Credito Technology: Growing at 154%.
Innovix Corp: With a 202% topline revenue growth.
From these eight, a deeper analysis (also supported by ChatGPT) was conducted to identify the top three stocks with the highest 100x potential.
The Top 3 Chances for 100x Growth
Here are the three most compelling opportunities identified through this rigorous process:
Cadeler (CDLR)
Area of Activity: Cadeler specializes in offshore wind turbine and foundation installation services, playing a crucial role in the construction of offshore wind farms.
Market Opportunity: Renewable energy is a key global trend. Furthermore, the soaring power demands of AI infrastructure provide an additional catalyst for growth, beyond the general transition from fossil fuels. The total addressable market for wind power capacity is projected to increase from 64 gigawatts to 447 gigawatts by 2032, an 8x increase in just a decade.
Financial Metrics: The company reported €249 million in revenue and €126 million in EBITDA. Its robust order backlog stands at an enormous €2.5 billion, which at its current revenue rate, would take 10 years to fulfill. Cadeler is projecting its revenue to more than double in the next year. It also has a presence in many markets around the world.
Risks: Potential project delays, the high capital intensity of the industry, and competition within the space are key risks to consider.
Nebius Group (NBIS)
Area of Activity: Nebius Group is an AI infrastructure company. They provide high-performance computing resources, including GPUs, GPU clusters, and cloud platforms, supporting AI model training and deployment globally.
Market Opportunity: Artificial intelligence is arguably the largest technological trend of our lifetime. The AI infrastructure market, valued at $76 billion, is projected to surge to $421 billion by 2033. This indicates a vast runway for growth. The business is only projected to do, in an optimistic case, a billion dollars in revenue, indicating significant runway.
Financial Metrics: The company boasts a phenomenal 385% year-over-year growth rate. While currently operating at a loss (typical for early-stage AI companies), its annual recurring revenue (ARR) is expected to grow to $750 million by the end of 2025. A significant vote of confidence comes from Nvidia, which invested in Nebius Group as part of its $700 million private placement.
Risks: The company is not yet profitable, building AI infrastructure is a highly capital-intensive endeavor, and it faces strong competition from giants like AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft. However, given the rapid growth of AI, there’s ample room for well-executing companies.
Power Industries
Area of Activity: On the surface, Power Industries might seem “boring”. It manufactures switchgears, power control rooms, and electrical distribution systems for various sectors including oil and gas, petrochemicals, electrical utilities, and data centers.
Market Opportunity:
The global data center market is projected to reach $517 billion, with the AI segment being a significant part of this.
Electrical utilities are experiencing growth due to rising energy demand, with the market expected to increase from $1.5 trillion in 2021 to $2.5 trillion in 2030.
The oil and gas sector is cyclical and represents the company’s slowest-growing segment.
Financial Metrics: While revenue growth has been modest, Power Industries stands out with impressive profitability growth of 38% year-over-year for fiscal Q2 2025. It also has a substantial backlog of $1.3 billion and nearly $400 million in cash on its books.
Strengths: Strong financial performance, particularly in net income growth, increasing involvement in the growing data center sector, and a very robust balance sheet.
