Investors are cautiously optimistic in 2025 despite the inconsistent nature of the January effect in stock prices. Some are taking on higher-risk bets, eyeing companies like Blue Bird Corp. (BLBD), UiPath Inc. (PATH), and Zeta Global Holdings Corp. (ZETA) for potential growth.

Blue Bird, a school bus manufacturer, saw its shares double in 2024, but has since declined by over 16%. With record revenue, adjusted EBITDA, and positive guidance, analysts predict a 44.2% upside potential for BLBD shares.

UiPath, a robotic process automation software developer, has shown revenue growth and increased challenges in the tech industry. Analysts are cautiously optimistic with a consensus price target of $17.50, reflecting a potential 34% increase.

Zeta Global, known for its AI marketing platform, faces legal challenges but has seen significant growth in platform usage. Despite a class action lawsuit, ZETA enjoys a Moderate Buy rating with a consensus price target more than double the current share price level.
