Today’s Topics: Why SaaS stocks are being punished while the broader market holds up AI as a margin killer vs a moat builder Price‑to‑sales multiples collapsing to Global Financial Crisis levels Which software businesses still control sensitive, mission‑critical data The growing divergence between platform giants and pure‑play SaaS Survivors, casualties, and where selective long‑term opportunities may lie Get in touch: The Magic Markets Website @MagicMarketsPod, @FinanceGhost, and @MohammedNalla (all on X) Pop us a note on LinkedIn Disclaimer: This podcast is for informational purposes only and does not constitute financial or investment advice.
