Intuit (INTU) stock dropped 12% after its fiscal 2027 revenue growth guidance of 9-10% fell short of expectations, with TurboTax unit growth projected at only 2-3%. This guidance fueled fears of AI disruption spreading from tax preparation and accounting to the broader software sector, causing Adobe (ADBE) and ServiceNow (NOW) to also decline by 3%. Analysts downgraded Intuit, citing concerns that AI disruption is now impacting QuickBooks and slowing new customer additions, prompting a reevaluation of the company's valuation.

ServiceNow (NOW) stock has surged 29% in the past month, reflecting a broader re-rating of enterprise AI companies following strong Q2 earnings where its AI product exceeded $1 billion in annual contract value. Despite this rally, NOW remains 16% below its year-to-date open, with Wall Street's consensus target price around $142. Achieving $150 would require continued AI contract acceleration, sustained growth in remaining performance obligations, and confirmation that a projected Q3 slowdown is merely a timing issue rather than a trend.
