CrowdStrike Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: CRWD), is slipping lower after Anthropic, a partner of CrowdStrike’s, unveiled a new AI model that has advanced cybersecurity abilities. It calls it Claude Mythos.
Amazon.com Inc., another CRWD partner, is also developing a powerful artificial intelligence tool that will handle business development and sales.
After today’s drop, CrowdStrike is now down 22% from its high for the year.
Why Claude Mythos bearish on CRWD Stock
Anthropic leaked a draft of its AI next generation model, which includes autonomous threat hunting capabilities. This could bypass endpoint protections such as CRWD and third-party firewalls.
CrowdStrike’s 381x multiple will be difficult to justify if Anthropic’s large language model (LLM) is successful in identifying, sandboxing and patching independently.
Investors are concerned that CRWD’s moat of detect-and respond could erode as AI becomes “cyber aware” on the kernel-level, turning the premium price into a wasteful expense.
CrowdStrike’s relative strength (14-days) index is currently at 36, indicating that it has not been “oversold”.
The RSI indicates that there is still room to fall further.
CrowdStrike stock is negatively affected by Amazon’s news
Reports that Amazon has been working on an AI-based tool to handle business and sales development tasks is also causing investors to sell their CrowdStrike stock.
This is a blow to the agreement CRWD made with Amazon Business Prime in September 2025. The Falco Go was positioned as Amazon Business Prime’s primary security system.
The reports from AMNZ AI agents are a direct attack on the moat of distribution and partnerships that AMNZ has worked for years to build.
In short, it signals a potential “partner-to-competitor” pivot that threatens CRWD’s revenue growth as well as enterprise dominance.
As of this writing, CrowdStrike is firmly below its MAs. This indicates that bears have a firm grip on multiple timeframes.
CrowdStrike Holdings: Should you purchase the dip?
Despite headline risks, CRWD may still be attractive to long-term investors who want to purchase the stock on a dip. This is because the company has a record annual recurring income (ARR) of $5.25 Billion.
Its “land and expand” strategy is still unmatched.
AI, on the other hand, could be a huge asset for CrowdStrike in time. Why?
Falcon’s machine speed platform is a great alternative to manual tools because it reduces the “breakout time” down to minutes.
Wall Street analysts are still bullish about CRWD. The mean price target is $492, which indicates a potential gain of over 30%.
