Summary
Nutrition label

79% Informative

Datadog has been granted admission to the S&P 500 index, one of just 5 companies to make the grade so far in 2025 .

The cloud monitoring and security platform is a leader in the field, with a long track record of industry accolades.

Despite its impressive history of growth, Wall Street still believes the stock is a buy.

The stock is currently selling for just 76 times next year's earnings and 14 times sales.

Wall Street analysts cite Datadog 's growth trajectory and increasing total addressable market ( TAM ) as the foundation for their optimistic call.

Given its long history of growth, strong secular tailwinds, and Wall Street's bullish take, I would submit that Datadogs is a buy.
