Zoom stock has surged nearly 400% — is it time to buy, hold or run away?

Wall Street has gone gaga for Zoom Video Communications (ZM) after its latest revenue report, to say the very least. And all indications point to the Street staying united in that optimism, despite an eye-popping price-to-earnings multiple of 232 times forward earnings.

Analysts hopped onto Zoom’s second quarter earnings call Monday night and congratulated execs for developing an essential communication tool to be used during a pandemic.

Count Walravens as among nearly 50% of primary Zoom analysts (this group has Buy ratings on Zoom’s stock) on the Street that remain super bullish on the company’s prospects and stock.
