BlackBerry Stock Jumps as U.S. Security Win Fuels Its Software Comeback

BlackBerry Stock Jumps as U.S. Security Win Fuels Its Software Comeback

BlackBerry Ltd shares jumped on Thursday, putting the former smartphone name back on traders’ screens after its AtHoc crisis-communications platform won a fresh U.S. government security re-certification and executives talked up its QNX embedded-software business. The move matters because BlackBerry is no longer being judged as a faded handset maker. Investors are weighing whether its two main businesses — secure government communications and QNX software used in cars, robots and industrial machines — can turn recent cost cuts into durable revenue growth.

CrowdStrike Holdings Stock Jumps 8% as AI Cybersecurity Rally Meets CEO Share Sale

CrowdStrike Holdings Stock Jumps 8% as AI Cybersecurity Rally Meets CEO Share Sale

CrowdStrike Holdings surged 8% Thursday, outperforming a soft U.S. market as traders rotated back into cybersecurity names benefiting from AI momentum. Datadog shot higher following a raised outlook, while both CrowdStrike and Palo Alto Networks posted gains—even as the S&P 500 slipped. This development lands in the middle of a debate: does AI undercut cybersecurity vendors, or expand their opportunities? Back in February, shares of CrowdStrike, Datadog, and Zscaler dropped roughly 11% following the rollout of an AI security tool by Anthropic. Robert W. Baird analyst Shrenik Kothari described the slide as a “narrative-led selloff,” noting that the tool didn’t actually address live intrusion defense.

CrowdStrike Stock Just Cleared $500 as Cramer, Mizuho Bets Put AI Security Back in Focus

CrowdStrike climbed past $500 early Thursday, erasing Wednesday’s slide as traders appeared to re-engage with the cybersecurity company’s AI-focused strategy and its efforts to boost partner-driven sales. Shares last changed hands at $503.51, up $35.44 after ending the previous session at $468.07, down 1.78%. This shift is catching attention as investors weigh whether artificial intelligence chips away at cybersecurity vendors or hands them more real estate to guard. CrowdStrike came out with a straightforward response this week: it's streamlining things for resellers, cloud marketplace partners, and services firms, aiming to push more Falcon platform sales through its channel.

Stryker Corporation Stock Slides After Cyberattack Hits Q1 Earnings — Why the 2026 Outlook Still Holds

PORTAGE, Michigan, May 2, 2026, 10:04 EDT Stryker Corporation stock tumbled after the medical-device giant posted first-quarter earnings and revenue that came in below expectations. Stryker blamed a cyberattack late in March, which threw a wrench into manufacturing, orders, and shipments. Still, the company stuck to its 2026 forecast, framing the hit as a matter of timing—it’s now a question of how much of the lost sales can be recovered.

CrowdStrike Stock Rises After Wolfe Upgrade as Anthropic AI Fears Turn Into Cybersecurity Spending Bet

CrowdStrike Stock Rises After Wolfe Upgrade as Anthropic AI Fears Turn Into Cybersecurity Spending Bet

CrowdStrike stock climbed roughly 3% in premarket trade this Monday, after Wolfe Research bumped its rating up to Outperform from Peer Perform. The firm pointed to Anthropic’s anticipated rollout of a more advanced AI model, saying it could drive increased security budgets rather than threaten cybersecurity providers. Wolfe assigned a price target of $450. The timing of the call is notable, coming just after reports related to Anthropic’s as-yet-unreleased Mythos model sent cybersecurity stocks tumbling Friday. For investors, the old debate is back: will improved AI agents end up handling more of the cybersecurity heavy lifting—or just turbocharge attacks and push companies to ramp up security budgets?

CrowdStrike Stock Back in Focus as Cybersecurity Spending Holds Up, AI Debate Shifts

CrowdStrike Stock Back in Focus as Cybersecurity Spending Holds Up, AI Debate Shifts

CrowdStrike grabbed attention again Friday. Investors pointed to steady cybersecurity spending, plus another round of AI-related initiatives and partnerships, for keeping the name in the spotlight. The stock closed Thursday with a 1.75% gain at $392.62, still trailing its 52-week high by roughly 31%. This matters because the company has spent the past several weeks squeezed between two stories: AI as a fresh catalyst for cybersecurity demand, or AI as a direct threat to existing software models. Back in February and March, Reuters reported that new tools from Anthropic sparked a broader slide in software shares. But Robert W. Baird’s Shrenik Kothari pushed back, labeling the move in cyber stocks “panic-driven, narrative-led”—not evidence that core real-time security platforms were actually being replaced.

JPMorgan’s Dimon warns banks could be targets as Iran war raises cyberattack fears

JPMorgan Chase & Co CEO Jamie Dimon is telling U.S. banks to get ready for possible cyberattacks as tensions with Iran ramp up, warning that “banks may be targets” if retaliation comes. Dimon also pointed to higher credit risks should the turmoil persist, though he downplayed the chance that the recent surge in energy prices will spark sustained inflation. https://www.investmentnews.com/equities/jamie-dimon-iran-tensions-unlikely-to-spur-lasting-inflation-warns-of-credit-and-cyber-risks/265513 Why now? The U.S. financial system relies on just a handful of major channels for payments, trading, and settlement—pipelines banks have spent years reinforcing. A geopolitical jolt is exactly the sort of event that draws attackers hunting for weaknesses.
