$AKAM Akamai's forward PE is a fraction of its competitors. This stock will find its true valuation when the short sellers stop hyper manipulating this ticker, and go long. It is too easy to manipulate with the float locked, and so few shares available to trade. They are taking brutal advantage of it. We have come straight down from 140 to 88 in 2 weeks. Oppenheimer already stated that earnings will be on the higher end and guidance will be raised on Nov 5th. We are at a great price point to go long. Akamai Technologies (AKAM) has a Forward P/E ratio of approximately 12.85; mature CDN transitioning to AI cloud infrastructure. Fastly (FSLY) 47.39 Highly speculative; heavily judged on revenue traction over net earnings. CrowdStrike Holdings (CRWD) 208.33 Premium valuation; pricing in massive AI endpoint security growth. Cloudflare (NET) 285.51 Hyper-growth premium; sustained 30%+ revenue expectations despite compressed margins.

$AKAM Today Akamai upgraded to Strong Buy from Outperform at Raymond James Raymond James analyst Frank Louthan upgraded Akamai to Strong Buy from Outperform with an unchanged price target of $170. The firm cites valuation for the upgrade following the stock's recent pullback. Credit risks and fears from higher rates drove last week's selloff, as Akamai faces a $5.5B capital commitment to generate over $11B in revenue from Anthropic, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Raymond James believes the selloff "creates a compelling long-term opportunity."

$AKAM Good call and huge backlog. AKAM not only has The CISvbusinrss that is booming but they have edge computing capabilities for Robots that will be a bigger mkt than AI . They are working with a huge “ unnamed” enterprise already. It has to be Tesla they are already working w Tesla for data content delivery. This should be a $150 stock

$AKAM Oppenheimer expects Akamai Technologies (AKAM) to report Q3 2026 earnings at the high end of its guidance, with the company scheduled to officially release its results on November 5, 2026. Key Insights from Oppenheimer • Q3 2026 Outlook: Checks point to solid adoption of cloud infrastructure services and API security, while increased traffic from AI crawlers is driving higher bandwidth usage and demand for bot-management tools. • Anthropic Agreement: Oppenheimer highlighted Akamai's 7-year, $11.6 billion cloud infrastructure contract with Anthropic (which could scale up to $20 billion with additional commitments), noting it provides major multi-year visibility and drives strong long-term sentiment with an Outperform rating and a $180 price target. • Prior Q2 Performance: Akamai beat Q2 2026 expectations, reporting adjusted EPS of $1.59 on $1.10 billion in revenue, fueled by nearly 40% growth in its cloud infrastructure services segment

$AKAM I feel like this is the only value stock and growth stock simultaneously. Sold a 90P for good premium, would be nice to get exercised.

$AKAM Should less than 1000 shares really drop this share price by more than 3 dollars? This share price should be 120+. Let's friggin GO!!!!

I never got in $AKAM Idk why you keep tagging me. Let this be the last time or you're getting blocked simply for being weird. $NIKE.X I'm in a LEAP. I'm doing fine. I don't need to short like a crackhead. $OPEN will recover when interest rates are more favorable.

$AKAM i do not understand this stock. Cut in half since May like its a semi, but it isnt. Plenty of cash, good fcf, relatively low pe, new deals rolling in monthly, yet riding near 52 week lows. Hoping for good news this week!

$AKAM With Anthropic's IPO in the headlines, one detail from Akamai's Sept 8-K: Anthropic's warrants are for non-voting preferred shares. They only turn into voting stock if Anthropic sells them to a third party. https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1086222/000119312526401048/d288154d8k.htm
