Is Five9 Stock A Buy?

Five9 has climbed more than 5% past a 74.42 entry in a first-stage double bottom, meaning it's now out of a proper buy zone. Look for the stock to create a new chance to get in like a three-weeks tight or pullback to the 50-day or 10-week line.

The computer software firm posted 86% earnings growth in the latest quarterly report, while sales growth came in at 20%. Keep an eye out for the company's next round of numbers on or around Jul. 26.

Five9 stock earns the No. 14 rank among its peers in the Computer Software-Enterprise industry group. DigitalOcean and Dynatrace are also among the group's highest-rated stocks.
