Current trend

Shares of Adobe Inc., a leading American software developer, lost 0.77% during the last trading session, while the S&P 500 index rose by 0.39%.

Analysts consider this movement to be a correction against the upward trend. Investors hope for an increase in the company’s profits, which is actively introducing artificial intelligence (AI) technologies into new products. Thus, last week, instruments to simplify the process of editing photos were presented. Vice President of Strategy, Design, and New Products Matthew Smith noted that the project will be in demand in the market since many users prefer not to generate new images but to adapt existing ones for specific purposes.

The quarterly financial report is due on December 11. Experts believe that investments in new technologies will provide Adobe Inc. with positive dynamics in the second half of the year. According to preliminary estimates, earnings per share may amount to 4.66 dollars, 9.13% more than a year earlier, and revenue – 5.54B dollars, up 9.71%. For the year, the values ​​​​will be 18.28 dollars and 21.44B dollars, higher than in 2023, by 13.75% and 10.46%, respectively.
