This divergence creates intense debate over whether current events will lead to a deeper correction or are merely temporary volatility before further upside.

This comes at a time when some AI startups, such as OpenAI, are working to achieve artificial general intelligence (AGI), while companies like Tesla are developing humanoid robots.“When people in the AI space predict that AGI or fully humanoid robots will come soon and then those deadlines are missed, it creates the impression that these things will never happen,” Gates said, warning against becoming complacent about the risks posed by AI.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Risk Of Bioterrorism</h2>Gates cautioned that an even greater risk than a pandemic today is the use of AI by bad actors to design a bioterrorism weapon.He recalled his 2015&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Af6b_wyiwI">TED Talk</a>, in which he warned that the world was not prepared to handle a pandemic.Five years later, the COVID-19 pandemic struck, resulting in the death of more than seven million people worldwide, according to the World Health Organization.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Disruption Of The Job Market</h2>The Microsoft co-founder added that AI has gotten good enough that it is already causing disruption in areas like software development. While other areas, like warehousing or phone support, are not as affected, he warned that once the AIs become more capable, the job disruption will be more immediate.“AI capabilities will allow us to make far more goods and services with less labor. In a mathematical sense, we should be able to allocate these new capabilities in ways that benefit everyone,” he said.He cautioned that the impact of AI on the job market will only grow over the next five years.“Both are real risks that we need to do a better job managing.

Elliott Investment Management has acquired a substantial stake in the company.


Workday Inc.’s (WDAY) <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/WDAY">shares</a> fell nearly 4% in Thursday’s midday trade after analysts at Piper Sandler downgraded the stock over concerns about the company’s near-term growth outlook.According to The Fly, Piper Sandler downgraded the Workday stock to ‘Underweight’ from ‘Neutral’ and reduced the price target to $235 from $255. The new price target for WDAY stock implies an upside of less than 2% from current price levels.The downgrade follows Piper’s latest survey of Chief Information Officers (CIO), which revealed growing concerns over the impact of artificial intelligence on enterprise software demand.&nbsp;The brokerage’s survey found that more than half of CIOs now expect AI to negatively affect hiring plans, marking the first time that sentiment has crossed the 50% threshold.&nbsp;The firm noted that while enthusiasm remains high for AI infrastructure, appetite for broader application software, where Workday operates, appears to be waning.The firm expressed concern over Workday’s per-employee pricing model, suggesting it could become a liability as businesses reassess headcount and IT budgets in the face of AI disruption.&nbsp;Workday, which provides human capital and financial management software to large organizations, is not alone in feeling pressure from AI-driven shifts in enterprise planning.&nbsp;While the tech sector broadly benefits from AI tailwinds, legacy software-as-a-service (SaaS) providers may find themselves squeezed as budgets pivot to infrastructure and model development.In the first quarter (Q1), Workday’s operating income slumped 39% year-on-year (YoY) to $39 million, impacted by restructuring expenses of $166 million.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around Workday improved to ‘bullish’ from ‘neutral’ territory the previous day amid ‘normal’ message volume levels.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:966/112;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_07_10_124907_png_7054f398af.webp" alt="WDAY’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 01.15 p.m. ET on July 10, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits" width="966" height="112"><figcaption>WDAY’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 01.15 p.m. ET on July 10, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>Workday stock has lost over 10% year-to-date but has gained more than 3% in the past 12 months.Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/autodesk-stock-drops-on-potential-acquisition-of-peer-ptc/ch8GJtfR5kl">Autodesk Stock Drops On Potential Acquisition Of Peer PTC, But Retail’s Exuberant</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Workday Stock Takes A Hit After Piper Sandler Survey Flags AI-Driven Headwinds, But Retail’s Optimistic

Piper Sandler downgraded Workday to Underweight, citing concerns about slowing application demand and AI-driven reductions in headcount. 

Pleasanton, California-based Workday, Inc. (WDAY) is scheduled to report its fiscal year 2025 fourth-quarter results after&nbsp;the closing bell on Tuesday.&nbsp;The Finchat-compiled consensus calls for adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.78 and revenue of $2.18 billion, up 13.5% year over year (YoY). In the year-ago quarter, the company reported&nbsp;an adjusted EPS and revenue of $1.157 and $1.92 billion,&nbsp;respectively.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/WDAY">Workday stock </a>pulled back following the company’s third-quarter results in late November as investors did not take kindly to the company’s full-year subscription revenue guidance cut.Given the precedence, the forward guidance for the first quarter and the current fiscal year is expected to determine the stock's near-term direction.Investors may also focus on other key metrics, such as the fourth-quarter subscription revenue, which was guided to $2.025 billion, adjusted operating margin , estimated at 25%, 12-month subscription revenue backlog, and operating cash flow.&nbsp;Last week, Morgan Stanley analyst Keith Weiss downgraded the stock to ‘Equal-Weight’ from ‘Overweight’ and reduced the price target to $275 from $330. Among the pushbacks mentioned by the analyst are recent negative revisions, headcount reductions, Workday’s go-to-market investments not paying off as expected, and weak fourth-quarter results from enterprise software companies.Loop Capital also has a ‘Hold’ rating on Workday stock with a $260 price target, while Goldman Sachs rates it ‘Buy’ with a $310 price target.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment toward Workday stock turned to ‘bearish’ (28/100) from the ‘bullish’ mood that prevailed a day ago. However, the message volume improved to ‘high’ levels.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:626/140;" src="https://st-everywhere-cms-prod.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/wday_sentiment_d089fd1c3d.png" alt="wday-sentiment.png" width="626" height="140"><figcaption>WDAY sentiment and message volume February 25, as of 12:46 pm ET | Source:&nbsp;Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>Some retail watchers said it is too risky to hold the stock at its current high valuation.
