The software sector outperformed the market as CrowdStrike and Salesforce reported strong earnings, pushing the IGV ETF above its June highs. CrowdStrike impressed with record Net New Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR), accelerating revenue growth, and raised its full-year growth forecasts, supporting a bullish outlook despite high valuation multiples.
