On July 1, Figma rose 6.03% in regular trading, trading at $19.82/share, with turnover of $120 million. The stock gained alongside a broad rally in the application software sector as investors continued to reassess the competitive threat AI poses to traditional software companies.

The sector-wide strength was fueled by reports that OpenAI may delay its IPO due to financial challenges, prompting a re-evaluation of the narrative that AI would rapidly displace incumbent software platforms. RBC Capital Markets analysts noted that the notion of enterprises fully replacing existing software solutions with AI is unrealistic, stating that the most pessimistic moment may have already passed. Within the Application Software sector, Strategy rose 9.1%, AppLovin gained 9.14%, Palantir Technologies climbed 7.64%, and Salesforce advanced 5.2%.
