Leading next generation firewall company. Salesforce very strong. However, valuation is full right now. Would wait for share price to fall before buying. Overall, a quality company.

COMMENT
Palo Alto Networks

It's grown into an extreme valuation of 135x EBITDA. You hardly see that in the market.

RISKY
Palo Alto Networks

Look for the continued move away from hardware to software and the cloud. Also, they must beat revenue to accelerate the strong momentum of the past 8 weeks. It's overbought this year, but it can grow into an extreme valuation in coming years. Owning this means accepting volatility. Don't be surprised with a pullback.

It makes sense in terms of global unrest and cybersecurity concerns.

Runway is OK. His 12-month price target is $384, so about another $30-35 to get there. Beneficiary of the CRWD fiasco. Like the general store for cybersecurity for large-, medium-, and small-caps. Caters to everyone.
