Software stocks have reversed early-year losses, with the iShares Expanded Tech-Software ETF (IGV) up over 40% since April lows. Cybersecurity stocks, especially CrowdStrike, have driven much of this rally, with CrowdStrike's stock doubling since April 10. Investor optimism is high, supported by bullish options activity and strong earnings expectations for CrowdStrike's upcoming Q1 fiscal 2027 report. However, the stock price already reflects this optimism, so any earnings miss could trigger a sharp decline. CrowdStrike's earnings report on June 3 will be a critical test for the sector's recovery.
