SnowflakeSNOWCOMMENTSep 11, 2020Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Jul 17, 2026. Market Open.
Enables organizations to consolidate data into a single source, and allows other applications to work better together. Short runway to price target. Next earnings not until August 26. Sell some calls; if you don't want to get called away, just roll the strike price up.
Nice moat, not a heck of a lot of competition. Makes so much sense, enterprise (not consumer) software. But the nosebleed territory causes some angst.
Key player within cloud and data centres. Cloud-based data storage with analytic solutions on top. Like a DDOG, but allows companies to manoeuvre more efficiently through the cloud. Owns it, but it's rich. His price target is ~$260-270.
He'd buy in around $246 and definitely just in front of $231-233. Your final third would be ~$215-220, at which point he'd absolutely recommend.
12-month price target of $225.41. Amazing turnaround. New CEO is an engineering guy, who really understands what SNOW is all about. Leading cloud-based data platform provider; helps data move seamlessly, faster, and with less energy. February earnings blew it out of the park, then got tangled up in tariff rhetoric.
If you own it, absolutely hold. If you don't, sell some puts (and you want to get taken anyway).
It IPOs next week and is a cloud-based data warehousing company. Berkshire Hathaway and Salesforce will each buy $250 million of stock. The CEO has a great track record in Silicon Valley; Snowflake is the CEO's third company he's taken public. He sees a lot of demand in Snowflake, so should IPO well. He's conflicted, because the IPO may be too red hot and overbought. He'll know more about this company next week.
