Is Cloudflare Overvalued?
Cloudflare hasn't rallied as much as other cybersecurity stocks, but that's justified.
Cloudflare(NYSE: NET) hasn't fared as well as other cybersecurity stocks this year. It's only up 13.8% year to date, while competitors like CrowdStrike(NASDAQ: CRWD) and Fortinet(NASDAQ: FTNT) are up by 49% and 87% year to date, respectively. This gap may exist for a reason, and there is good cause to believe that Cloudflare is overvalued, even at current levels.

Cloudflare's first-quarter results once again showed a net operating loss, which is one of the major headwinds holding the stock back from a higher valuation. Solid growth rates matter, but when a company has been around for more than 15 years, profitability matters a lot more.
