Salesforce Crushes Earnings -- Is the Stock Still a Buy?
Salesforce (NYSE: CRM) was founded in 1999. Since its IPO in 2004, the stock has returned over 6,500% for investors. Its stock has been under pressure over the past year, primarily due to its acquisition of Slack Technologies for a whopping $27.7 billion. Many investors feared that this hefty price tag was unmerited. However, Salesforce management has proven itself time and time again with its acquisition history, and investors are starting to understand the power of Slack as it's integrated into the business.
