On August 14, Snowflake declined 3.02% in regular trading, trading at $326.56/share, with turnover of $177 million. The stock faced selling pressure despite a recent bullish analyst call.
On the news front, while Oppenheimer raised its price target on Snowflake from $295 to $400 citing strong core consumption growth and expanding AI agent CoCo adoption, heavy insider selling overshadowed the positive call. Director Dageville Benoit filed on August 12 to sell 50,000 shares worth approximately $16.785 million, following a similar 50,000-share sale in late July at $280 per share. Director Michael Speiser also reduced holdings by over 50,501 shares at an average price of $324.06.
The broader Internet Services and Infrastructure sector experienced widespread declines, with Twilio falling 5.43%, Cloudflare down 3.65%, MongoDB declining 2.69%, and Shopify dropping 2.11%, adding industry-level headwinds to Snowflake's price action.
