CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. Class A (CRWD)

CrowdStrike's stock experienced an all-time high of $557.53 on November 10, 2025. In Q3 CY2025, the company reported results exceeding market revenue expectations, with sales up 22.2% year-on-year. A partnership with IBM was announced in March 2026, designating CrowdStrike's Falcon Next-Gen SIEM as the preferred migration path. The stock saw a pop in early April 2026 due to AI-related news. In April 2026, shares retreated due to a broader SaaS sector sell-off. As of April 10, 2026, the stock price was $379.02.

There appears to be some seasonality in investor attention rather than direct product demand for CrowdStrike's products and services. Seasonal chart analysis suggests a "Buy Date of March 8 and a Sell Date of July 8" has historically resulted in positive returns. The cybersecurity sector sometimes sees a dip in investor attention during the summer months. CrowdStrike's business model aims for recurring revenue and deep customer lock-in, which reduces direct demand seasonality.
