Market Sentiment Analysis

Equity markets closed lower yesterday after a positive start. Equity futures remain mixed this morning as NVIDIA moved higher in after-hours trading after President Trump approved the company's sale of its H200 AI chips to approved customers in China, in return for 25% of the sales value. Investors may exercise caution today ahead of tomorrow's FOMC announcement, where a 25-basis-point interest rate cut remains priced in, but the outlook could still inject volatility. AI and retail earnings could move price action, with earnings from Oracle, Broadcom, Costco, and Lululemon on deck Fundamental Analysis

CrowdStrike is a cybersecurity company with a promising push into AI-based and cloud-based cybersecurity solutions.

So, why am I bearish on CRWD after its earnings report?

CrowdStrike reported revenues of $1.230 billion and earnings per share of $0.96, besting estimates of $1.214 billion and $0.94, respectively. While it delivered excellent ARR growth and net cash from operations, I turned bearish as its operating margins contracted, and its GAAP attributable net loss to shareholders more than doubled. Valuations are sky-high, even by the standards of AI-related companies, and I consider CRWD significantly overvalued.

CrowdStrike Fundamental Analysis Snapshot

The price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 401.83 makes CRWD an expensive stock. By comparison, the P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 is 34.71.

The average analyst price target for CRWD is $549.52. This suggests good upside potential with magnified downside risks Technical Analysis
