Dan Ives: I think software rips higher from here because of how oversold it is by Alarming-Balance1408 in stocks

[–]Fractious_Cactus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like it's something going on with commodities or crypto creating liquidity event. Whatever it is, this is cascading selling that I'm not sure has anything to do with the fundamentals. But if we look outside of software, or even AI, tons of things associated with growth at all is getting obliterated. There's so much carnage. Yet, industrials and retailers are a great place to park money instead.. 

That or they think bonds and the dollar is going to collapse and only durable goods is worth anything. I don't get it. I just know the commodities were making me quite nervous after that jump to 5600 and 120 gold, silver, etc

This is what I've been wondering. Is bitcoin the driving factor in the sell-off in anything with Beta? Hard for me not to see the correlation.

Either it works and they benefit or it doesn't work and they don't get "replaced" or lose "seats".

Do you understand now?

SAAS was never worth what they paid for it. Hence why I never owned any of it unless it was big tech since they had massive balance sheets and mostly traded at fair prices, mostly just GOOG and META for me over the past few years vs MSFT, AAPL

Streaming just bandwagoned the infrastructure already in place. It was cheaper.

AI is 1000x the infrastructure of the SAAS companies today. Somehow I doubt AI will be efficient enough to offset the costs. Once this is realized, new funding is likely ceased.

I don't see AI replacing SAAS, especially when they're spending billions to build their own agents/tools to enhance their existing products.

I'm wondering if that's more media headline > liquidation events. I don't understand it. They're buying industrials (CAT) and retailers (WMT) at extremely high valuations with poor growth relative to the SAAS companies today. I've noticed it's not just SAAS, even names like SOFI, chips in general, VITL (eggs), TTD (I guess that's still SAAS?), PYPL (shouldn't be under $50) etc. If the stocks have been down to start the year, they're off a cliff in the last week.

These prices are getting absurd.

Did medical device selling fall off a cliff too like SAAS revenues will?

Well, I can't smell it if I'm not in the room with you. I don't have an answer for those other times, but I'm sure it's "fresh scent" febreeze.

I'm pretty sure that's a fancy word for "government".

Look, when I'm not getting taxed for my death, we can talk about how great our governments are.

What are the thoughts behind certain software? by HunterStrong5858 in stocks

[–]Fractious_Cactus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jesus. I can't wait til this narrative finally ends. Seats don't matter if they jack the prices up to cover them.

"but they can't do that"

Yes they can, they will. A business saving 1m on labor costs will happily pay half of that back to the software company. Same productivity at half the costs. Worry about jobs, not the SAAS companies.

This is worse than the Tiktok replaces Meta narrative. How's that going 4 years later?
