🟢 Workday is trading 5% up today amid broad software-sector rebound

Workday is trading $199.14, up 4.84%, after a broad rebound in software stocks.

• Investors continue to weigh Silver Lake’s reported acquisition talks, providing additional support.
• Market coverage showed Workday rising alongside Salesforce and ServiceNow as investors pushed back against fears that AI could undermine established software companies.
• The broader market is higher ahead of the 2:00 PM FOMC Minutes, supporting risk appetite. No new Workday announcement or earnings release was identified on August 19, 2026; the move appears primarily sector-driven.
