This is what Nic Chahine averages with his option buys. Not selling covered calls or spreads… BUYING options. Most traders don’t even have a winning percentage of 27% buying options. He has an 83% win rate. Here’s how he does it.

Slack has been unable to identify the cause of the problem, but the company is providing ongoing updates on its status page.

"We’re looking into the cause and will provide more information as soon as it's available," Slack posted at 9:25 a.m. ET.

In another update, Slack said its platform is failing to load for some users. "We are continuing to investigate the cause."

Why It Matters: The outage could be problematic in the near term for businesses using slack for day-to-day operations.

In early 2021, Slack was down for a few hours and the company took a hit after Slack provided credits to affected customers. Following Salesforce's $27.7 billion acquisition of Slack, the outage and any related costs could negatively impact Salesforce's stock. 

Salesforce is set to announce its fourth-quarter financial results after the market closes on March 1.

CRM Price Action: Salesforce has traded as low as $195.79 and as high as $311.75 over a 52-week period.

The stock was up 0.64% at $198.09 at time of publication.
