Palo Alto earnings smash expectations, AI fueling cyber demand — ride the breakout higher

Palo Alto Networks just reported earnings that easily beat Wall Street expectations, and the stock surged 12%. The company's CEO said AI advances are actually increasing demand for cybersecurity, not hurting it.

Idea

Palo Alto Networks squashed fears that AI would disrupt its business — instead, AI is driving more urgency around cybersecurity spending. Analysts are already raising their price targets after the print, and the stock is hitting fresh highs. When a company beats on earnings, gets analyst upgrades, and has a fresh narrative (AI = more cyber spend, not less), the stock tends to keep running for several more sessions. This looks like a classic momentum continuation setup.
