Quintero noted that cloud bookings are accelerating and likely to generate upward revisions to cloud revenue estimates, aided by structural go-to-market changes introduced by Chief Executive Officer Eric Clark.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Quintero highlighted that Manhattan is transitioning from an AI-debated stock into an AI beneficiary following favorable customer feedback on its agentic software tools. As outlined by Investing.com, Morgan Stanley&#8217;s vertical AI framework suggests supply-chain and retail operations have historically been under-automated, creating direct monetization paths for automated workflows.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">The upgrade follows a 69.5% share price gain over the prior six months, with Quintero arguing that business momentum is inflecting positively despite an elevated valuation multiple.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Is now the time to buy Manhattan Associates? <a href=\"https:\/\/stockstory.org\/us\/stocks\/nasdaq\/manh?utm_source=whyItMovesArticle&amp;utm_medium=yahoo&amp;utm_campaign=companyLink&amp;utm_article=Cl92aGwCY0I%3D&amp;utm_ticker=MANH\" data-ylk=\"slk:Access%20our%20full%20analysis%20report%20here%2C%20it&#039;s%20free;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;source:content-canvas%20default\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Access our full analysis report here, it&#039;s free&quot;,&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yTrafficOrigin&quot;:&quot;content-canvas default&quot;}\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Access our full analysis report here, it&#8217;s free<\/a>.  <\/p>\n<p>        What Is The Market Telling Us          <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Manhattan Associates&#8217;s shares are quite volatile and have had 16 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today&#8217;s move indicates the market considers this news meaningful but not something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">The previous big move we wrote about was 14 days ago when the stock dropped 3.4% on the news that a deepening Treasury selloff and higher oil prices pushed the benchmark 10-year yield to 5.218%, reinforcing expectations of further Federal Reserve rate hikes.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Manhattan Associates is up 30.6% since the beginning of the year, and at $218.43 per share, it is trading close to its 52-week high of $223.76 from August 2026. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Manhattan Associates&#8217;s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $1,434.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">WHILE YOU&#8217;RE HERE: The Next Palantir?
