We recently published a list of  Why These 15 Big-Cap Stocks Are Plunging So Far in 2025. In this article, we are going to take a look at where ServiceNow, Inc. (NYSE:NOW) stands against other big-cap stocks that are plunging so far in 2025.

The market has been reversing its gains earlier in the year, so much so that the S&P 500 is now down 1.5% year-to-date. The past two years have seen the same index post stellar gains back-to-back, and those gains were mostly spearheaded by big-cap stocks.

However, historically speaking, the market delivering a third year of such returns would be unprecedented. Investors believe that 2025 will likely be a year when the market starts to cool off, and recent events have started a trend toward just that.

Big-cap stocks are now leading the way down as tariff and AI-related fears hurt them the most. Many big-cap companies have invested significantly in these tech trends, which investors have now soured on.

Still, it’s a good idea to keep an eye on the big-cap losers year-to-date. Many of them have declined enough to open up buying opportunities.

Methodology

For this article, I screened the worst-performing big-cap stocks year-to-date.

I will also mention the number of hedge fund investors in these stocks. Why are we interested in the stocks that hedge funds pile into? The reason is simple: our research has shown that we can outperform the market by imitating the top stock picks of the best hedge funds.

Number of Hedge Fund Holders In Q4 2024: 110

ServiceNow, Inc. (NYSE:NOW) is a cloud-based software company.

The stock is down significantly so far in 2025 after the company issued cautious subscription revenue guidance for 2025 during its Q4 2024 earnings report.

The forecast was $12.635 billion to $12.675 billion in revenue. This was below analyst expectations of $12.849 billion. ServiceNow attributed this to a shift in deal timing. However, investors are still nervous.

The consensus price target of $1,129.72 implies 24.67% upside.

ServiceNow, Inc. (NYSE:NOW) stock is down 14.53% year-to-date.

Overall, NOW ranks 7th on our list of big-cap stocks that are plunging so far in 2025. While we acknowledge the potential of NOW as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and doing so within a shorter time frame. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than NOW but that trades at less than 5 times its earnings, check out our report about the cheapest AI stock.
