Just watched one of the sharper post-earnings moves I’ve seen in a while.
Cloudflare ($NET) reported strong Q1 results last night — revenue of $640M (+34% YoY) and EPS that beat expectations. But the market sold off hard on slightly softer Q2 guidance and the announcement of ~1,100 layoffs (over 20% of the company) as they accelerate their shift to an “agentic AI-first” model.
The stock dropped roughly 24% in a single session.
Here’s what I did: I sold off my entire position at an average of $238 in the 2 or 3 days running up to earnings, then repurchased most of the shares back at $196 during Friday's session.
Short-term timing worked in my favor this time, but more importantly, **I didn’t lose an ounce of long-term conviction**. I simply felt the price heading into earnings looked too good to be true on this occasion.
Cloudflare’s structural advantages in edge computing, security, and now AI infrastructure remain as compelling as ever. The layoffs aren’t a sign of weakness — they’re a deliberate acceleration toward higher efficiency and product velocity in an AI-driven world. I still believe NET is one of the best-positioned companies in the entire cloud and cybersecurity stack.
Volatility is part of the game. The key is separating the noise from the signal.
Curious to hear how others are thinking about Cloudflare post-earnings — are you buying the dip, staying on the sidelines, or trimming?
