#5 - 10x Genomics (NASDAQ:TXG)
The area of gene editing is expected to show exponential growth in the coming decades. 10x Genomics Inc. (NASDAQ: TXG) is a life sciences company that provides gene editing companies with the products and services they need for their work. It's a fascinating field with the potential for astonishing growth.
So why is TXG stock trading near its 52-week low? The reason would seem to be that this is still a relatively small company. With a market cap of just over $2 billion, it's still a small-cap stock in many investors' minds. And it's not profitable at a time when investors are staying away from unprofitable stocks.
Analysts aren't projecting profitability in the next 12 months, but the losses are narrowing as top-line revenue continues to increase year over year. In 2023, that revenue totaled approximately $620 million. However, the company believes the annual opportunity in the market could total $12 billion in years to come.
That opportunity is one reason Cathie Wood has shown interest in TXG stock. Although 10x Genomics takes up only 1.5% of Woods' Ark ETF, it holds 6.59 million shares, up 2.5 times the level in October 2023.
