Software Stocks Rally in Q3; Cramer Sees More Upside
In the third quarter, software stocks rebounded strongly as concerns about AI disrupting traditional business models eased. The iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF (IGV) rose 17%, while the semiconductor ETF fell 11%. Salesforce rallied 46%, helped by the launch of 'Claudeforce' with Anthropic, and Microsoft gained 37% on strong Copilot demand and Azure growth. Workday and Veeva also saw significant gains. Jim Cramer highlighted the comeback as the defining market story and remains bullish on Salesforce and Microsoft, while noting that higher interest rates pose a risk. Cybersecurity stocks like CrowdStrike also performed well. The article reflects market sentiment and investor perspectives but does not introduce new corporate events or significant AdTech developments.
AI Labs Own the Next Software Moat: Distribution
In an opinion piece for The Drum, R/GA's global chief technology officer Nick Coronges argues that agentic AI is not killing SaaS but shifting the value layer. He contends that AI labs like Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google are building a new moat through distribution, owning the general-purpose surfaces (desktop apps, agents, plugins) where work happens. The piece highlights Anthropic's partnership with Salesforce ('Claudeforce'), enabling Claude to access Salesforce data and workflows. Coronges predicts a Cambrian explosion of short-lived, composable software products, where enterprises assemble custom tools. He also notes that services firms like R/GA are increasingly delivering 'tools that make things' rather than just outputs, blurring the line between software and services.
