  • ServiceNow Moves Higher as Guggenheim Lifts Rating to Buy
    July 1, 2026, 11:00 AM EDT. ServiceNow (NYSE:NOW) jumped roughly 4% after Guggenheim bumped its rating up to Buy from Neutral, setting a $125 price target. Analyst John DiFucci pointed to the stock's recent slide as a good spot to buy in, betting on continued double-digit growth and possible strength from the U.S. Federal Government. Shares have dropped 35% since December 2025 on AI worries, but Guggenheim says these concerns don't hit the long-term case. The firm values ServiceNow at 7.5x enterprise value to next-twelve-month recurring revenue, calling that a premium that fits the company's profits and growth outlook.
