Shares of cloud analytics firm Tableau Software have been cut in half this year on a poor profit outlook, but one top analyst believes they are ready for a rebound as investors looking for growth at a bargain price step in.

Brian White of Drexel Hamilton, whose stock picks average a one-year return of 8 percent according to TipRanks, believes shares of Tableau could come back because the company's product is still a "must have tool for information workers." White's average return is in the top 5 percent of analysts on Wall Street.
