Market Focus
Aug 14

On August 13, Salesforce.com rose 3.56% in regular trading, trading around $200.38/share, with turnover of approximately $1.418 billion.

On the news front, JPMorgan initiated coverage of Salesforce.com with an Overweight rating and a $250 target price, well above the current share price. On the same day, Monness Crespi Hardt raised its target price from $200 to $222 while maintaining a Buy rating, and UBS lifted its target to $210. According to FactSet, the stock carries an average analyst rating of Overweight with a mean target price of $238.14.

The concentrated bullish signals from multiple institutions effectively reversed recent negative sentiment. The stock had previously been pressured by a Morgan Stanley downgrade, the resignation of President Srini Tallapragada on August 6, and a disclosure of 74 layoffs at San Francisco headquarters on August 8. The next earnings report is scheduled to be released after market close on August 26.
