Geopolitical flare-ups in the Middle East have pushed investors toward defensive tech names that can weather market volatility and sustain corporate spending. During these jittery stretches, cybersecurity and enterprise-software firms often shine because their services stay mission-critical even when budgets tighten.
Amid this turmoil, Webush has spotlighted 10 tech stocks to own. Among those picks, Check Point Software Technologies (CHKP) emerges as a little-known but important contender. Analysts at Wedbush Securities flagged CHKP as “well positioned,” noting the company’s push to build a competitive suite across SASE, ERM, and its E-Mail Harmony offering. Wedbush also sees AI as an accelerating driver of deal flow for Check Point, helping the firm win defensive enterprise spending.
