Enterprise software stocks have been decimated (down 30-70%) due to fears that Generative AI will allow companies to write their own code and replace SaaS providers. The sell-off is overdone for profitable companies with strong growth. * Intuit (INTU): AI is not a threat to the consumer TurboTax business or SMBs who cannot afford to build internal software. * Salesforce (CRM): Trading at its lowest P/E multiple in history (14x), cheaper than during the 2008 recession. * ServiceNow (NOW): Strong growth (19%) and a massive buyback program ($2B). * Box (BOX): Cheap (16x earnings) with consistent execution. * Atlassian (TEAM): Down 70% from highs but growing earnings at 30%. * Workday (WDAY): Trading at less than 15x earnings despite 18% expected growth. A proprietary screen identified these specific names as having >25% drawdowns but above-market earnings growth and profitability. The market may continue to punish software stocks irrationaly in the short term if AI fears persist. |
