A number of stocks fell in the morning session after markets pulled back as a hotter-than-expected wholesale inflation report for July dampened hopes for a Federal Reserve interest rate cut. The U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI), a key measure of wholesale inflation, rose 0.9% month-over-month in July, far exceeding the 0.2% increase that economists had predicted. Annually, prices at the wholesale level jumped 3.3%, also surpassing the 2.5% forecast. This hotter-than-expected data has poured cold water on widespread expectations for an interest rate cut from the Federal Reserve next month. Persistent inflation makes it less likely for the central bank to ease monetary policy. Sectors with high-growth stocks, such as SaaS, are particularly sensitive to interest rate changes, as the prospect of higher rates for longer can diminish the present value of their future earnings, leading to a decline in stock prices.
Datadog’s second quarter was defined by strong customer adoption of its cloud monitoring platform, particularly among AI-native businesses. Management credited higher usage growth from both existing and new customers, with AI-native companies contributing a rising share of revenue. CEO Olivier Pomel pointed to “rapid usage growth with their [AI-native customers’] products,” as well as steady demand across other customer groups. The quarter also saw increased product adoption, with a notable uptick in multi-product usage and strong traction for security offerings. Despite surpassing analyst expectations, management acknowledged the potential for volatility in usage patterns among large AI customers.

fell 8% in the afternoon session after analyst firm Oppenheimer slashed its price target on the stock, fueling investor concerns despite a positive earnings report. The firm cut its price target to $23 from $32. This negative sentiment from Wall Street appeared to overshadow the company's strong second-quarter performance, where both earnings and revenue topped analyst forecasts. Sprout Social also lifted its full-year revenue guidance. However, another firm, Cantor Fitzgerald, maintained its cautious "Neutral" rating, citing the need to see a reacceleration in revenue growth before becoming more positive. The analyst actions suggested that the market focused more on future growth prospects than on the recent earnings beat.
