According to Wedbush, CrowdStrike is benefiting from increasing demand for artificial intelligence (AI) cybersecurity products. The analysts called CrowdStrike the “Gold standard” in the cybersecurity field. They observed strong momentum in the company’s cyber platform approach, reporting positive checks and healthy trends moving into the next year.

Wedbush explained, “CRWD remains at the forefront of securing the AI Revolution over the coming years.” The firm also sees growing “deal momentum” with AI as a positive factor driving the stock upward.

Since last month’s earnings report, CrowdStrike stock has gained about 7.7%. Earnings projections have been moving higher, with analysts expecting a 10% decrease in fiscal 2026 profit, followed by a 33% rebound the following year. Sales are predicted to grow by an average of 22% over the next four quarters.

The company’s shares have shown volatility, with 17 price swings greater than 5% in the past year. Today’s increase indicates strong buying interest. CNN analysts forecast the potential for a further rise to $575, which would be an estimated 12% return from current prices, although the median forecast calls for a slight decrease to $500 over the next year.
