Workday, Inc. (NASDAQ:WDAY) is one of the AI Stocks Making Headlines This Week. On August 13, Cantor Fitzgerald initiates coverage on the stock with an Overweight rating and a price target of $265.00. The rating comes as part of a broader research note launching coverage on select Human Capital Management – HCM – names.

“While we understand the market’s concerns regarding WDAY’s slowing growth, uncertain macro, and potential AI disruption to WDAY’s seat-based model, we think the market has grown too pessimistic. WDAY is a high-quality asset with a strong management team, entrenched competitive position in the enterprise, expanding growth vectors, and latent margin potential. The stock is trading near its all-time low EPS and FCF multiples, which we see as an attractive entry point with a positively skewed risk/reward ratio.”
