Microsoft Corp (MSFT) has become a focal point of discussion among experts, revealing a blend of optimism and concern regarding its future performance. The company has seen a significant increase in cash reserves while continuing aggressive share buybacks, bolstered by a recurring revenue model from its subscription services. Although concerns revolve around its AI initiatives, particularly in relation to the competition and perceived lag in the AI race, the firm's cloud services like Azure have shown impressive growth rates of around 40%. Despite short-term pressure and fluctuations in stock value, many analysts maintain a bullish outlook, suggesting that MSFT's fundamental strengths in productivity, cloud services, and AI integration could lead to substantial long-term benefits. As a dominant player in both software and cloud markets, Microsoft's strategic investments and partnerships position it well for future success, amid a backdrop of evolving market dynamics.

BUY

Growth potential? Owns it and would buy it here. Thinks it's a great company. After 2000 the technology shifted to the consumers as opposed to the enterprises. Now the big issues in technology are really enterprises based, whether it's the cloud, AI, cyber security, machine learning, etc. those are all big things happening in the cloud and that has to have a lot of scale and the easy choice has always been to pick Microsoft.

BUY

He really likes it. They touch a lot of market segments. It is in the 95th percentile in terms of sustainable investing. This is how to get exposure to tech. Other tech companies are facing major governance issues. There is a lot of anger directed at those companies. MSFT-Q does not have that problem. They do not have a controlling CEO. Other big tech companies have low corporate governance scores.

TOP PICK

She likes their position in the cloud business, second behind Amazon, but gaining market share. They're transitioned many products to a monthly recurring revenue stream--good. They have a strong balance sheet. Valuation is 25x forward earnings, but she expects them to grow earnings in the double digits. (Analysts’ price target is $144.00)

WAIT

Likes it, keeping an eye on it. Would like to own some if it gets beat up enough. CEO is doing positive things. Leveraging Windows platform vertically. Gaming business will continue to grow. LinkedIn has more monetization opportunities. Reasonable valuations.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 09/18, Up 32%) They are a leading in the Cloud and the their membership sales are strong. Software is now a service.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

He is watching for a correction. They are a company that is doing lots of good things. Their chart has the pattern you want to see and they continue to invest in the company.

BUY

New highs are good, like the one now. Buy new highs. It's been on a sharper uptrend than before, which is a little concerning, but there's nothing on the chart saying sell. $115 is the support level.

DON'T BUY

It hit $133, a key upside technical target. It needs to break through this recent high before he calls it a bull stock. Its fair market value is 35% below current levels. Nice company, but over valued.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Their cloud has been a rocketship. Excellent company, but it's run very, very far. Too expensive to add to now. A pullback is a different matter.

WEAK BUY

Haven't owned it since 2001. A little overpriced. Still a medium-risk stock.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Like Apple, it's a great business model and is dominant. They've grown their cloud business very well. It isn't dirt cheap, but generates a lot of cash flow. Buy on dips and hold long term. The dividend will modestly grow.

BUY

MSFT vs. Cisco Diversify with 20 companies, regardless of how many dollars in your portfolio. Diversity by industry. MSFT and Cisco are relatively in the same business, both invested in the cloud, and both companies have turned around and done well with new technology. Own both.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 14/18, Up 15%) They haven't still taken any profit on it. They just increase the Price Target to $135.00. Their PEG ratio is 1.68. They are an innovator. $5.3 billion in revenues.

BUY

It is one of his core holdings. They are moving into the on-line world. Their rate of growth has been accelerating. It is expensive but is going to go substantially higher.

BUY

Very low risk. Fortress balance sheet, which gives it flexibility for acquisitions and the like, which have not been part of its growth strategy. Converted to a software service company. Hard to find reasons not to buy. (Analysts’ price target is $127.00)
