CRM is building cash reserves, aggressively buying back shares and retiring debt.  It trades at 4x book and supports a 10% ROE.  It manages its platform efficiently and is well positioned for an improving economy.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $183, looking to achieve $352 -- upside potential of 32%.  Yield 0.3%

WEAK BUY

He targets $325. It's puzzling that has lagged the market. They tried really hard with Einstein to bring out the agentic AI, but they discovered it needs some human intervention. Great management and aggressive sales and marketing. Is among his top 12 holdings.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 17/25, Down 4.7%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Our PAST TOP PICK with CRM has triggered its stop at $252.  To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time.  

BUY

They've suffered because the results of their AI spend hasn't happened yet. It's starting to now. CRM dominates the market and doesn't face serious competition. She is seeing the enhancement in their software, which will result in better earnings.

BUY

CRM is like Uber in the $60s. Their last earnings were great. The CEO will focus on free cash flow and margins and growth. The market is completely missing this, expecting some sort of AI to take over what CRM is doing. Absurd. CRM is already using AI. Is unloved, caught in the hedgefund shorts. This can easily rally 20% after earnings.

TOP PICK

The collection of data is becoming more important especially for corporations. It does well in software that collects consumer info and consolidates it, and is a global leader in this field. It is becoming an operating system for the modern enterprise and is delivering recurring revenue from AI and the data cloud. Trades at a good valuation of 22 times earnings and has expanding margins. She sees 40% upside and gives it an 8 out of 10 fundamentally.

(Analysts’ price target is $346.43)
HOLD

Ranks CRM, Adobe and likewise the net losers in AI. CRM's growth has slowed in recent years. Is interesting long term, but if it falls further he will reconsider it.
