#From “SaaSpocalypse” to Recovery: The Return of Quality SaaS Stocks My personal view is that large institutional investors have been aggressively pressuring SaaS stocks since the beginning of the year, while the rise of AI fueled concerns about a potential "SaaSpocalypse." As a result, many high-quality SaaS companies saw their share prices decline by more than 40%, despite maintaining strong fundamentals.

Market fears are likely overstated, as the real value lies in augmentation rather than replacement.
