Parnassus Investments, an investment management company, released its Q1 2025 investor letter. Here is what the fund said:

“We initiated two positions in the Information Technology sector during the quarter: Advanced Micro Devices, a manufacturer of semiconductor devices and electronic components, and ServiceNow, Inc. (NYSE:NOW), which provides software for automating enterprise workflows, after significant share price drawdowns in both cases. As a result of these additions, our underweight in the sector lessened, and our positioning is closer to market weight.

ServiceNow’s product innovation and its ability to streamline and automate complex workflow across functions enable the company to sustain sales growth. Its wide moat, characterized by high switching costs and deep integration into critical enterprise functions, further cements the company’s long-term competitiveness. Market selloffs provided an opportunity to access one of the highest-quality software companies that is reshaping enterprise operations worldwide.”
