Specifically on $DOCU which is approaching levels not witnessed since 2021. Not only is there the rates sensitivity (usually software long duration, higher rates should hurt (been opposite this rate move for now) and the exposure to AI threats (how hard is it to rewire an esignature) even if you want to put those two aside, the business has a significant exposure to the real estate (mortgage, refi, etc) industry and that by all accounts is not performing well (see starts data today, number of existing closings, etc)... seems like this lack of pricing fundamental developments of the business is the tell tale that the move is not based in anything more than a squeeze it would seem. Would love to know from any buyers, why buy here, and what causes you to sell (purely momentum?) It would seem a deep rerating (the opposite from last earnings set up) might be coming for the software trade (especially if AI trade comes back to close out the year). Upsetting they are so inversely correlated, because AI rate of change spending levels does not matter, current AI is enough to present problems for these software providers, at some point that linked should break as AI spend less still won't save software names from their problems
