Salesforce Inc (NYSE: CRM) has about doubled in 2023 but a Morgan Stanley analyst is convinced that it’s not out of juice just yet.
Salesforce stock should be worth $350Keith Weiss upgraded the software firm this morning to “overweight” and raised his price target to $350 which suggests a 35% upside on its previous close.
The analyst is bullish on Salesforce stock because it currently trades at a discount versus other large-cap software names on a growth-adjusted earnings basis. His research note also reads:
Low investor expectations vs potential top-line upside drivers in price increases, product bundling and Data Cloud adoption frame an attractive risk/reward for CRM.
Last month, Salesforce Inc said it now expects its operating cash flow to grow by 33% in fiscal 2024. Its previous guidance was for a 30% growth.

Still, the analyst is constructive on Salesforce stock because he expects Data Cloud to be a meaningful growth catalyst in the coming year.
Note that $CRM has cut a whopping 10,000 jobs over the past twelve months – which makes up for another good reason to remain long this stock, as per the famed investor Jim Cramer.
In January of 2023, activist investor Elliott Management also revealed a multi-billion-dollar position in the cloud company as Invezz reported here.
