Market Focus
Aug 04

On August 3, Salesforce.com rose 3.79% in after-hours trading, trading at $186.76/share, with turnover of $20.003 million, extending the rally driven by major government contract wins and institutional upgrades.

On the news front, Salesforce.com was awarded a three-year $1.6 billion agentic enterprise license agreement from the US Department of Veterans Affairs, adding to a previously secured $13.5 billion defense order. Government business continues to scale significantly, providing strong fundamental support. Additionally, Citi and Guggenheim raised their ratings to Buy, signaling a recovery in market sentiment following earlier concentrated downgrades from firms including Morgan Stanley and KeyBanc.

The stock gained a cumulative 12.4% last week, outperforming the S&P 500 by 11.4 percentage points. At the current price, shares trade at approximately 13.1x FY27 adjusted EPS guidance midpoint, still more than 30% below the 52-week high, while continued capital rotation into the software sector provides additional tailwinds.
