George Soros is one of the most successful investors in the stock market’s history. He founded the Soros Fund Management, which currently manages over $6.6 billion in assets.

Alex Soros, one of George Soros’ sons from his second marriage, was handed over the reins in 2023.

Ahead of earnings season, OKTA was in the spotlight at the start of this week after J.P. Morgan reviewed it as its Overweight-rated cybersecurity stock.  The analysts have a positive outlook on the company’s shift towards sales specialization in Customer Identity and Workforce.

Wall Street analyst D.A. Davidson also upgraded the company from Neutral to Buy in the last month after it reported its financial results and provided its outlook. Okta reported stabilizing growth and strong enterprise adoption in its fourth quarter fiscal 2025 results and outlook.

Analyst D.A. Davidson commented:

“With increasing new product mix, enterprise traction, channel momentum, and sales productivity, we now believe double-digit growth is sustainable.”

Similar sentiment was shown by some other analysts at that time. The firm earned an upgrade from  Mizuho Securities from Neutral to Outperform with an increased price target of $127. This upgrade was based on the opportunities to accelerate growth in the upcoming years. Additionally, KeyBanc and Stifel maintained their positive rating on the stock.
