This summary was created by AI, based on 30 opinions in the last 12 months.

CrowdStrike Holdings (CRWD) has solidified its position as a top player in the cybersecurity sector, particularly in endpoint device management. As generative AI continues to proliferate, the need for effective cybersecurity solutions has skyrocketed, prompting analysts to project significant growth in the next few years. Despite the company's impressive growth profile and strong margins, its current price-earnings ratio suggests the stock may be expensive. Many experts recommend a cautionary approach, advocating for carefully timed investments as CRWD has experienced volatility amidst broader market concerns regarding AI disruption in cybersecurity. Overall, the consensus is that while the stock remains a leader in a rapidly growing segment, it may require strategic buying due to its high valuation.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

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.

DON'T BUY

Trades 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.

TOP PICK

(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.

(Analysts’ price target is $198.26)

BUY

Their 4-for-1 split took effect today. Cybersecurity stocks are no longer treated like software. Their forward PE is 127x. Look at the software names more than the Mag 7.

BUY

Cloud services are using a lot of cybersecurity names, which reported good earnings. CRWD's balance sheet continues to improve.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jul 15/25, Up 45%)

He loves the cybersecurity space but the stock has become very expensive. He advises to take a trading position and trim. It went parabolic a couple of weeks ago so they sold 25% at $758

DON'T BUY

It's 90x EBITDA or revenue--either is lunacy. Where does it go from here? He can't buy it at these levels.

BUY

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.

TOP PICK

In the last quarter, the company reported 1.12 USD per share, beating the 1.10 USD estimate by 1.73%. Revenue for the same period reached 1.31 B USD, despite the estimate of 1.30 B USD. For the next quarter, analysts expect 1.07 USD in earnings per share and 1.36 B USD in revenue. Social media mentions are up 244% in the past 24h.

BUY

It reports today. You can't replace CWRD with Anthropic for most companies.

BUY

He wants to get back into the cybersecurity space. AI threats are increasing cyber budgets for governments and businesses. It has secular growth. He will go back into PANW or CRWD.

BUY

Though the industry is moving fast, cybersecurity is not going away anytime soon. AI fears are overdone. All players will have to evolve by absorbing large language models into their offerings. Need to have some exposure, and this name is one of the top choices.

BUY

technical analysis by Bob Lang

It's been on fire since its second bottom a month ago, rising on strong volume. And there's strong institutional buying. Lang targets $600 and revisit old highs first.

WATCH

The past year, it was making higher highs and higher lows, then fell. But is moving higher recently. Is a decent change it could hit its last high. But there will be sellers at $490. It the stock breaks that, it could move into the $500s. Could be an aggressive play.

WEAK BUY

Anthropic isn't a threat, but is really a tailwind. These cyber stocks won't jump tight back up in this difficult market, though.
