Market Whales and Their Recent Bets on CRM Options

Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives discusses the benefits for software companies from the AI spending phase.
In recent weeks, the analyst has been tracking enterprise AI spending in 2025, focusing on use cases and identifying leading vendors. AI now makes up about 12% of many IT budgets, up from 10% in January, with some CIOs accelerating their AI strategies.
Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) chips and cloud providers are central to AI deployments, and for every $1 spent on Nvidia, there is an $8-$10 impact across the broader tech ecosystem.
Around 70% of companies have increased their AI budgets, signaling rapid tech spending despite economic uncertainties.

The analyst has been tracking AI adoption across industries like financial services, healthcare, transportation, and manufacturing.
Many IT departments are focusing on large-scale AI deployments with Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), and Alphabet Inc&#8216;s Google (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), targeting software-driven use cases.
While customers were still in the strategy phase in late 2024, there is a shift in recent weeks, with high-priority AI use cases now being rapidly implemented across various sectors in 2025. Amid the widespread buzz in the software industry about monetizing AI, a select group of companies is beginning to stand out from the crowd.
The software sector is poised for significant growth as the AI Revolution accelerates, with the adoption of generative AI and LLM models becoming key drivers.
The analyst sees Palantir Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) and Salesforce Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>) as top software plays amid the AI Revolution for 2025, with other vendors like Oracle Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>), International Business Machines Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NYSE">IBM</a>), Snowflake Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNOW#NYSE">SNOW</a>), Elastic N.V. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESTC#NYSE">ESTC</a>), MongoDB, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MDB#NASDAQ">MDB</a>) and Pegasystems Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEGA#NASDAQ">PEGA</a>) also well-positioned.
IBM&#8217;s cloud penetration has been particularly successful, presenting a major monetization opportunity. Despite investor skepticism, the analyst said the accelerating AI adoption in enterprises will benefit the software industry in 2025. The analyst also added IBM to the Wedbush Best Ideas List, reflecting higher confidence.

Price Target

Macquarie Maintains Neutral on Salesforce, Maintains $320 Price Target

Thanks to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/03/44347282/recession-fears-gold-records-and-trade-wars-this-week-in-economics">rising recession fears</a> exacerbated by multiple trade wars. Investors have turned to alternative avenues to protect their wealth, from purchasing gold to bidding up <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44418887/alpha-buying-why-reit-insiders-are-betting-big-amid-economic-uncertainty">real estate investment trusts</a> (REITs). However, the smart money has an even bolder idea: rotate back into heavily deflated technology firms such as cloud-based software giant Salesforce Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>).
To be completely upfront, the idea of betting on Salesforce&#8217;s stock is a contrarian and therefore risky one. Aside from the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44383229/salesforces-growth-path-analyst-predicts-28-2-billion-free-cash-flow-by-2031-but-tariffs-could-delay-target">tariffs that could impose macroeconomic pressures</a> against Salesforce's primary revenue drivers, the company didn't do itself any favors when it released its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43991325/salesforce-shares-sink-after-q4-revenues-miss-estimates-weak-fy26-guidance-details">fourth-quarter earnings results</a> late last month.
Headline figures came in mixed, with the highlight being earnings of $2.78 per share, beating the consensus estimate of $2.61. Unfortunately, revenue in the quarter landed at $9.99 billion, missing the consensus view of $10.03 billion (though it was an improvement of nearly $9.3 billion from the same quarter last year).
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/03/44418891/us-home-sales-jump-in-february-median-price-nears-400000-next-big-move-could-shock-everyone-analysts-say">US Home Sales Jump In February, Median Price Nears $400,000</a>
Still, the real story at the time was management's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/02/44019376/salesforces-shares-drop-on-missed-fy-guidance-analyst-recommends-focus-on-bookings">guidance for fiscal year 2026 revenue</a>, which ranges from $40.5 billion to $40.9 billion. In contrast, analysts were expecting revenue to reach $41.375 billion. Subsequently, Salesforce suffered conspicuous volatility.
Recently, though, a floor appears to have developed around the $270 level — and the show support may have fundamental justification. Last week, Salesforce <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44272818/salesforce-pledges-1-billion-to-propel-singapores-ai-industry-through-its-agentforce">committed to invest $1 billion</a> in Singapore's artificial intelligence sector, an effort to promote the adoption of the company's AI product Agentforce.
Further, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CRM/analyst-ratings">analysts are generally optimistic</a> about Salesforce stock, rating the equity a consensus Buy. Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives in particular remarked that while the "geopolitical poker" game has caused some anxieties, the expert isn't hitting the panic button. Specifically, Ives named Salesforce as one of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/03/44116610/investors-shouldnt-run-to-the-hills-over-tariffs-dan-ives-points-to-8-ai-stocks-to-own">potential winners of the so-called AI Revolution</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Smart Money Senses An Opportunity</h2>
Participating in the equities market can be a humbling experience, in large part because the influence of opinions is grossly uneven. While retail investors may think a certain way, ultimately, money talks. Therefore, when institutional players — the entities that actually matter — dig into a particular enterprise or asset, it's always worth paying attention.
During the midweek session, Benzinga's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/insights/options/25/03/44400428/unpacking-the-latest-options-trading-trends-in-salesforce">options scanner</a> identified generally bullish activity. In terms of dollar volume, the most optimistic transaction was for sold (or written) $240 puts with an expiration date of Oct. 17, 2025. Essentially, the trader(s) underwrote the risk that Salesforce share prices won't drop materially below $240 by expiration. For the risk, they are receiving the premium (bid) of $11.40 or $1,140 per every 100 shares represented by one option contract.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1022" height="311" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20145600/CRM-stock-unusual-options-activity.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-834591" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20145600/CRM-stock-unusual-options-activity.jpg 1022w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20145600/CRM-stock-unusual-options-activity-300x91.jpg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20145600/CRM-stock-unusual-options-activity-768x234.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1022px) 100vw, 1022px" /></figure>
Nevertheless, from a swing trader's perspective, the most intriguing transaction could be the long $260 calls expiring April 17. At the time, the ask on these calls stood at $25.15. Adding this figure to the strike price results in a breakeven threshold of $285.15. With a little less than a month to expiration, CRM stock is within striking distance of this target.
Of course, Wall Street players aren't in the business merely to break even. No, the smart money anticipates that there are profits to be made, which implies that CRM stock could move much higher. Determining the magnitude of a possible upswing is where the statistical data comes into view.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20145112/CRM-stock-probability-gambit-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-834579" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20145112/CRM-stock-probability-gambit-1024x576.jpg 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20145112/CRM-stock-probability-gambit-300x169.jpg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20145112/CRM-stock-probability-gambit-768x432.jpg 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/20145112/CRM-stock-probability-gambit.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image by author</figcaption></figure>
Using pricing information from January 2019, a long position held for any given eight-week period has a 57.41% chance of being profitable, a clear upward bias. 
Right now, Salesforce&#8217;s stock is enjoying modest momentum, with shares up roughly 2% in the trailing five sessions. Under similar circumstances, a subsequent eight-week-long position has a nearly 65% chance of being profitable.
Throughout the eight weeks and assuming the positive scenario, traders may assume a median return between 9.24% to 9.77%.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Setting Up a Strategic Play on Salesforce Options</h2>
With the market intelligence above, aggressive traders can front-run an anticipated recovery with a multi-leg options strategy called the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/bull-spread">bull call spread</a>. This particular approach is appealing because it effectively discounts a net long position.
For the previously mentioned April 17 expiration date, a tempting idea is the 280/290 bull spread. This transaction involves buying the $280 call (at a time-of-writing ask of $940) and simultaneously selling the $290 call (at a $480 bid). The proceeds from the short call partially offset the debit paid for the long call, resulting in a net debit paid of $460.
Should Salesforce&#8217;s stock hit the $290 short strike price at expiration, the trader collects the difference between the strike prices (multiplied by 100 shares per option contract) and the net debit paid, or a maximum reward of $540 per each spread. This translates to a max payout of over 117% on what is approximately a 4% move in the open market.
To be clear, if CRM stock doesn't cooperate, the trader is at risk of losing the entire net debit paid since the long call is currently out the money (OTM).  However, it's impossible to realize such massive rewards in a large-capitalization enterprise like Salesforce unless there's significant volume involved. That's the power of leverage, which makes options trading risky but incredibly tempting.

Stephens & Co. Initiates Coverage On Salesforce with Equal-Weight Rating

BofA Securities analyst Brad Sills reiterated a Buy rating on Salesforce, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>), <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CRM/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">with a price forecast of $400.</a>
The analyst acknowledges the growing risk of a macroeconomic slowdown caused by tariffs, which may delay the target to fiscal year 2026.
Sills writes that Agentforce could contribute an additional 2% growth in the upside scenario by the second half of fiscal year 2025, supported by the strong performance of Data Cloud, which had an annual recurring revenue of $900 million in the fourth quarter, marking a 120% year-over-year growth.
The report also highlights the potential for margin expansion and free cash flow growth driven by ongoing productivity improvements across the company.

The analyst maintains that Salesforce is emerging as a quality GARP stock, with consistent low-double-digit revenue growth and steady margin expansion of 50 to 100 basis points, driven by sales and marketing leverage.
Sills suggests that in a favorable scenario, Salesforce could achieve a free cash flow of $28.2 billion by fiscal year 2031, representing a 15% compound annual growth rate over five years, with a 38.8% FCF margin. This would imply an average annual margin expansion of 100 basis points from fiscal year 2025.
The primary driver of margin improvement is expected to come from sales and marketing efforts.
To achieve this, Sills highlights the importance of the sales and marketing to incremental revenue ratio as a key metric.
According to the analyst, there is significant potential for further improvement through several initiatives, such as reducing the ratio of account executives to accounts, leveraging partnerships, enhancing product packaging and using Agentforce internally within the company.
The analyst explains that the continued development of Agentforce is expected to result in negative research and development leverage, which will partly counterbalance the positive leverage from sales and marketing efforts mentioned earlier.
Price Action: CRM shares are trading lower by 0.89% to $278.74 on Tuesday.

Shares of companies in the broader software sector are trading higher. The sector may be rising as the overall market rebounds after falling recently on tariff concerns.

NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) will likely be one of the top stocks to watch next week. The company's annual GTC conference, often referred to as the Global AI Conference, will take place, and CEO Jensen Huang will once again provide<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37803088/nvidia-gtc-2024-ceo-huang-highlights-the-past-present-and-future-of-ai-a-new-industry-has-emerged"> a keynote speech.</a>
What Happened: The GTC Conference runs March 17 through March 21, with Huang's keynote coming on March 18 at 1 p.m. ET. The event could serve as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/02/44015322/nvidia-analyst-sees-significant-upside-for-stock-with-favorable-riskreward">the next catalyst</a> for the stock, which has fallen in recent months.
Nvidia's AI conference will give the company a chance to highlight new and upcoming products, give updates on demand for items like the Blackwell chips and showcase future monetization opportunities like robotics and automotives.
Nvidia said Huang's <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_waPvOwL9Z8">keynote </a>and the event will provide a "glimpse into the future of AI infrastructure, scientific computing, AI and robotics."
"AI is pushing the limits of what's possible — turning yesterday's dreams into today's reality," Huang <a href="https://nvidianews.nvidia.com/news/nvidia-ceo-jensen-huang-and-industry-visionaries-to-unveil-whats-next-in-ai-at-gtc-2025">said</a>. "GTC brings together the brightest scientists, engineers, developers and creators to imagine and build a better future. Come and be first to see the new advances in NVIDIA computing and breakthroughs in AI, robotics, science and the arts that will transform industries and society."
A preview of GTC from <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/03/12/nvidia-gtc-2025-what-to-expect-from-this-years-show/">TechCrunch </a>said the expectation is Nvidia shows off an upgraded lineup of the Blackwell chip, like the Blackwell B300 series, codenamed Blackwell Ultra. The chip is slated for a release in the second half of 2025.
The preview also said Nvidia could showcase Rubin, the company's next-gen GPU series, which will be released in 2026.
Huang said on a recent Nvidia earnings call that he would talk about post-Rubin products at GTC, which could mean additional product showcases as the company looks toward 2026 and beyond.
Nvidia will also likely showcase its role in quantum computing. The company will host its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43001201/nvidia-announces-first-ever-quantum-day-at-gtc-2025-days-after-jensen-huang-said-quantum-computing-is-20-years-away" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first-ever</a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43001201/nvidia-announces-first-ever-quantum-day-at-gtc-2025-days-after-jensen-huang-said-quantum-computing-is-20-years-away"> quantum day </a>at GTC, which will feature executives from several leading companies in the sector.

Why It's Important: Keynotes from Huang and product unveilings have proven to be major catalysts for Nvidia and its stock.
Huang gave a keynote at this year's CES earlier in January. Huang's speech happened after market hours on Jan. 6. Nvidia stock opened at $152.03 on Jan. 7 and hit the all-time high of $153.13 during that day.
Investor optimism in the stock may have peaked around the keynote and product announcements at the event as shares have fallen since then.
With Nvidia stock currently down year-to-date, Huang's GTC keynote could serve as a pivotal moment to create optimism in the company's chips and AI business once again along with some potential new products and catalysts that haven't been factored into the stock.
Other Companies to Watch: Over 25,000 people are expected to attend GTC 2025, which will have over 1,000 sessions and more than 2,000 speakers.
Last year's GTC event provided a boost to several public companies who were mentioned as Nvidia partners by the company.
A current speaker lineup also shows that several public companies will have speakers at the conference, which could make their stocks worth watching for investors as AI continues to be a catalyst watched by analysts and investors.
Here are some of the public companies that have <a href="https://www.nvidia.com/gtc/speakers/">speakers </a>at GTC 2025:
<ul>
<li>Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>)</li>

<li>The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>)</li>
</ul>
While many companies are represented by AI sector executives or chief technology officers, Rivian stands out with its CEO and founder, RJ Scaringe, speaking at the event.

Shares of software companies are trading lower amid overall market weakness and tariff uncertainty. Also, the industry may be moving amid sympathy with Adobe after the company reported soft guidance. Investors may also be weighing the possibility of a government shutdown ahead of the March 14 deadline.

Stocks surged Wednesday morning, with major indices poised to snap a two-day losing streak, as cooler-than-expected inflation reinforced expectations for Federal Reserve <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/03/44274165/inflation-cools-more-than-expected-in-february-strengthens-the-case-for-fed-rate-cuts">rate cuts in 2025</a>.
Futures on major U.S. indices rebounded sharply, with the S&amp;P 500 climbing 1.1% by 9:00 a.m. ET, the Nasdaq 100 jumping 1.6%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average rising 0.8%. 
Small caps, as tracked by the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>), were up 1.2%. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Rate Cut Bets Gain Traction</h2>
The latest Consumer Price Index report showed inflation cooling more than anticipated in February. 
Headline CPI eased to 2.8% year-over-year, coming in below the 2.9% forecast, while core CPI, which strips out food and energy prices, slowed to 3.1%, below expectations of 3.2%
The data strengthened the case for monetary easing, pushing traders to fully price in three Federal Reserve rate cuts in 2025, according to the CME FedWatch Tool.
On the Kalshi event-prediction platform, three rate cuts also emerge as the most likely scenario for 2025.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Commodities Surge, Bitcoin Nears $84,000</h2>
Commodity markets reacted strongly to the inflation data, with WTI crude oil climbing 1.6% and copper surging 2.7% to its highest level since May 2024. Silver also gained 1%, while natural gas tumbled 4.4%.
In the cryptocurrency space, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rose 1.4% to approach $84,000, while altcoins saw notable gains—Cardano jumped 5% to $0.7590, and Solana advanced 3% to $129.

Wall Street Rockets As February Inflation Cools More Than Expected

Salesforce Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>) has committed&nbsp;to invest $1 billion in&nbsp;the country&#8217;s AI sector&nbsp;over the next five years.&nbsp;The investment is aimed at promoting the adoption of Salesforce&#8217;s AI product, Agentforce.
What Happened: Salesforce, on Tuesday, unveiled its plans to inject $1 billion into Singapore&#8217;s AI industry over the next half-decade. The initiative aims to speed up the country&#8217;s digital transformation and promote the adoption of Agentforce, Salesforce&#8217;s leading AI solution.
Having operated in Singapore for around 25 years, Salesforce believes this investment will bolster Singapore&#8217;s workforce in various&nbsp;key service and public sector&nbsp;roles. This comes at a critical moment as the country faces challenges from an aging population and declining birth rates.
Salesforce&#8217;s AI Research hub in Singapore has driven product innovations, including AIOps Agents that enhance Salesforce&#8217;s site availability and in-house code LLMs that assist customers in optimizing their code for better performance. Their work has led to the publication of over 100 research papers and patents.
Salesforce is enhancing its services on Hyperforce in Singapore to offer data residency for Data Cloud, Agentforce, and Unified Marketing Applications (UMA) by next month. This will enable Singapore businesses to leverage Salesforce's Agentforce and data solutions while complying with local data residency regulations.

Why It Matters: This investment comes on the heels of Salesforce&#8217;s recent unveiling of Agentforce 2dx at the TrailblazerDX conference. The new product represents a significant advancement from reactive to proactive agentic capabilities in the AI sector. Notably, today Salesforce also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/contracts/25/03/44272237/ai-takes-flight-singapore-airlines-taps-salesforce-for-next-gen-customer-service-tech">announced a collaboration</a> with Singapore Airlines (SIA) to enhance the customer case management system.
Goldman Sachs analyst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44200350/salesforce-ai-expansion-sparks-analyst-optimism-400-price-forecast-set">Kash Rangan expressed</a> optimism about Salesforce&#8217;s execution of its AI product roadmap, setting a price target of $400 for the company&#8217;s stock. This investment in Singapore&#8217;s AI sector is likely to further strengthen Salesforce&#8217;s position in the global AI market.
CRM stock surged 9.35% over the past six months to close at $277.05 on Tuesday as per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">BenzingaPro</a>.
