In the security space on the endpoint device management side. Generative AI is producing reams more data, which has to be protected. Around 40x PE, 7.5-8x revenue -- premium multiple. Pretty strong margins and growth profile. In the right space of adapting to AI. Expensive for a reason.
Nick Mersch, CFATrades at 15-20x revenue, so the market expects strong growth for five years without AI disruption or hiccups. Prefers MSFT at a much-lower PE.
Jamie Murray (The theme of today's Top Picks is cybersecurity, which is going to be big deal. All of the AI systems will have to be made more secure. Each of today's picks has already had a good run.)
12-month price target of $192. Scale in and buy some here today, some more in the low $170s, and the final tranche in the low $160s. Very competitive area, but its advantage is its global reach. No dividend.

Just bought it. Though software is underperforming, cybersecurity is strong. He shouldn't have sold this last February. Is up 48% this year. He's buying the momentum now. Don't be afraid of price when momentum is such a factor.
