Datadog, Inc. Class A Common Stock (DDOG)

Amid a market sell-off with the S&P 500 down 9% and Nasdaq-100 in correction territory, two under-the-radar growth stocks present buying opportunities. Lemonade, an AI-powered insurance technology company, has grown customer base 23% and in-force premiums 31%, with management projecting 61% revenue growth in 2026 and a tenfold increase in IFP over the next decade. Datadog, a cloud observability platform expanding into AI tools, saw 28% revenue growth in 2025 with AI product adoption surging 57% year-over-year, now trading near its cheapest valuation since going public.

U.S. equities tumbled to their lowest levels in nearly seven months on Friday as the Nasdaq 100 officially entered correction territory, down over 10% from January highs. The decline was driven by geopolitical tensions with Iran rejecting ceasefire options, surging crude oil prices, deteriorating consumer sentiment, and rising inflation expectations. The 30-year Treasury yield climbed to 4.958%, threatening to breach 5% for the first time since July 2025, while the Fed rate hike probability by December jumped to nearly 50%.

Adobe is flagged as vulnerable due to its seat-based pricing model exposure to AI disruption.

Palantir Technologies has reinvented itself as an AI-focused enterprise software company, expanding beyond its defense roots into healthcare, financial services, and manufacturing. The company reported impressive 2025 results with 56% revenue growth and $1.6 billion in net income. However, its P/S ratio of 103 is significantly higher than peers, making valuation a concern.
