Datadog’s stock has been swinging sharply as investors weigh mixed signals about the company’s near‑term outlook. On the positive side, fresh analyst checks and updated models point to a likely fourth‑quarter earnings beat, underpinned by stronger core product usage, growing adoption of its AI tools, and an expanding sales force that supports optimistic revenue expectations for 2026. However, sentiment is being held back by signs of softer year‑end IT budgets, worries that AI‑related enthusiasm may not justify previous valuation levels, and recent insider share sales that are adding short‑term downside pressure. In response to this blend of positives and negatives, analysts have adjusted their price targets to reflect both the improved growth trajectory and the increased risk around the stock’s valuation.
