This crash happened after the stock formed a double-top pattern at $367 and a neckline at the support at $312. A double-top is one of the most popular bearish reversal signs in technical analysis.<\/p>\n<p>The stock has remained below the 50-day and 200-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMA), a sign that bears remain under control for now. It also remains below the Supertrend and the Ichimoku cloud indicator.<\/p>\n<p>Most importantly, the stock has formed a descending pattern, with the key support level being at $228.48 and the descending trendline, which connects the highest swings since May this year.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the stock will likely have a bearish breakdown when it moves below the lower side of the descending triangle pattern. A move below the support will point to more downside, potentially to the key support level at $200.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The alternative scenario is where the stock rebounds after earnings as bulls target the upper side of the descending trendline at $250.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image inv-component-break-container size-large\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/symbols\/NYSE-CRM\/\">CRM<\/a> stock chart | Source: TradingView<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Salesforce earnings preview&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p>Salesforce, the biggest company in the CRM industry, will report its financial results this week and provide more color on its business.<\/p>\n<p>The company\u2019s revenue rose by 10% in the third quarter to $10.2 billion, with its subscription and support revenue rising by 11% to $9.7 billion. These results and its guidance were better than expected.<\/p>\n<p>Its guidance was that its business would make between $10.24 billion to $10.29 billion, representing an annual growth rate of between 8% and 9%. That figure would bring its full-year revenue to between $41.1 billion and $41.2 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The main concern among investors is that its investments in the AI industry, where it is focusing on AgentForce, is not helping its revenue growth accelerate.<\/p>\n<p>Data compiled by <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/quote\/CRM\/analysis\/\">Yahoo Finance<\/a> shows that the average revenue will be $10.27 billion, up by 8.7% from the same period last year. Its earnings-per-share (EPS) is expected to move from $2.41 last year to $2.86.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Salesforce has always been a highly conservative company, meaning that its revenue and earnings will likely be better than its guidance and what analysts expect.<\/p>\n<p>Another positive is that the company has become a bit undervalued, with its forward price-to-earnings ratio being 20.36, lower than the sector median of 23.57. This figure is also much lower than its five-year average of 36.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, the forward PEG ratio of 1.22 is lower than the sector median of 1.6.<\/p>\n<p>Analysts have a <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2025\/10\/16\/salesforce-stock-soars-over-6-today-heres-why-analysts-are-bullish\/\">relatively bullish outlook<\/a> for the stock, with the average target being $325, much higher than the current level of $230. The most recent estimates were from companies like Jeffries, Cantor Fitzgerald, Barclays, and Evercore.<\/p>\n<p>READ MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2025\/08\/22\/salesforce-stock-price-forms-hs-brace-for-a-crash\/\">Salesforce stock price forms H&amp;S: brace for a crash<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2025\/12\/01\/salesforce-stock-price-forms-a-risky-pattern-ahead-of-earnings\/\">Salesforce stock price forms a risky pattern ahead of earnings<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/\">Invezz<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Salesforce stock price remained under intense pressure in November as concerns about the company&#8217;s AI business continued.
