Blue-chip software stock Salesforce Inc (NYSE:CRM) broke above resistance at the $265-$267.50 range late last week, which also coincides with its year-to-date breakeven level. Plus, the shares went on to stage a bounce after a retest of this level.
 
CRM also just crossed above its 200-day moving average, which is still sloping higher. With these layers of technical support in place, now looks like a good time to bet on the stock’s next leg higher.

 

 
In the options pits, Salesforce stock’s 50-day put/call volume ratio of 0.85 at the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Cboe Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX) sits in the 91st percentile of its annual range, meaning options traders have been much more bearish than usual. The last two rollovers from this area have marked bottoms around it.
 
Options look like a good way to go when considering CRM, as it’s seeing well-priced premium at the moment. This is per the stock’s Schaeffer’s Volatility Index (SVI) of 24%, which ranks in the low 12th percentile of its 12-month range.
 
Our recommended November call has a leverage ratio of 11.4, and will double on an 8.9% rise in the underlying shares.

While everyone’s still counting their money from this first AI boom … Nvidia and countless others have moved on to the next stage.

That includes Big Tech, which is currently making a series of peculiar investments in a few strange companies. This has nothing to do with tech. At least on the surface …

Yet, these strange investments could be the early ripples of a massive wave …Without them, ChatGPT could stop operating … Amazon, Google, Microsoft and more could see profits drop drastically.

In fact, Elon Musk says these investments are critical when it comes to solving the number one problem facing AI.

Now, Silicon Valley legend Michael Robinson has identified two companies that could play a significant role in the solution.

Their stocks just may be the key to AI 2.0.
