RBC Capital raised the firm’s price target on Fastly (FSLY) to $10 from $7 and keeps a Sector Perform rating on the shares as part of a 2025 outlook for the software sector. The firm believes 2025 is likely another good year for software as the group “could benefit from multiple catalysts.” Spending trends have stabilized and improved in some cases, generative artificial intelligence has the opportunity to drive new innovations, and first half of 2025 estimates benefit from easy compare as management teams “lean into growth,” the analyst tells investors in a research note. RBC’s favorite ideas include Adobe (ADBE), Microsoft (MSFT), and Snowflake (SNOW) in large-cap, Gitlab (GTLB) and Guidewire Software (GWRE) in mid-cap, Clearwater Analytics (CWAN), Magnite (MGNI), and Varonis Systems (VRNS) in small-cap, and Dynatrace (DT), MongoDB (MDB), and Nexxen (NEXN) as “non-consensus ideas.”
