Salesforce Stock Plummets After Global Service Outage Amid Analyst Price Target Lifts

Salesforce stock fell by 2.03 percent on September 18, 2026, closing at $237.92 after a global service outage.

The shares then traded modestly higher in after-hours dealings, but the decline still weighed on sentiment.

Several analysts have raised their price targets for Salesforce, with Guggenheim increasing its target from $270 to $300 while maintaining a Buy rating.

Other analysts, such as DA Davidson and UBS, remain cautious, citing valuation risk and execution challenges after the outage.
