Salesforce Stock Gained 17% In A Week, What To Expect?
Salesforce’s stock (NYSE: CRM) has gained 17% in the last week, outperforming the S&P 500 (up 0.7%). Further, the same trend was observed over the last ten days (17% vs 4.7%) and one month period (10% vs 1.1%).
The company, a market leader in customer relationship management (CRM) technology, surpassed the street expectations in the recently released first-quarter FY2023 results (FY Feb-Jan). It posted total revenues of $7.4 billion – up 24% y-o-y, primarily driven by a similar increase in the subscription & support revenues. The subscription & support stream includes an 18% growth in the Salesforce CRM category (sales, service, and marketing & commerce cloud), followed by a 36% jump in the cloud services sub-segment (platform, data, and other). Further, the firm increased its profit guidance for FY2023. Overall, the above factors boosted investor confidence in the stock.
