Number of Hedge Fund Holdings: 119

Customer relationship management software provider Salesforce Inc (NYSE:CRM)’s shares are down by 35% over the past year and by 22% year-to-date. Stifel cut the firm’s share price target to $200 from $260 and kept a Neutral rating on the 17th. One major debate in the market when it comes to Salesforce Inc (NYSE:CRM) has been about the firm’s ability to execute well in today’s AI market. Cramer has also chipped in and asserted that Agentforce continues to do well. Mizuho also discussed the firm in February. It maintained an Outperform rating but reduced the share price target to $280 from $340. Unsurprisingly, the firm pointed to the impact of AI on the software sector and remarked that worries about disruption from the technology was weighing down software stocks. Cramer commented on the broader sentiment:

“Now these are really great companies. These are great companies. If you had told me, two years ago, that we would even have any of that kind of chatter, I would say, do you understand that these are companies where a major bank might agree to a four year deal for ServiceNow. Well now the deals are two years, now we talk about Salesforce maybe not being able to do well in the seat business. I think that maybe one of the problems we have here is just that everyday we hear, it’s just not a big part of your overall, but everyday we hear that these companies aren’t getting the ARR in the out years that you think they are so therefore they are worth less. . .”
