Microsoft Corp (MSFT) is currently viewed as a robust and versatile organization, harnessing its significant cloud infrastructure (Azure) and productivity software to drive growth and shareholder value. Despite its challenges, particularly with AI integrations and pressures on its software segments, MSFT has demonstrated remarkable resilience with cash flow positivity and strategic spending. There is a mixed sentiment about its Co-Pilot AI functionality, with some experts highlighting its improvement while others remain skeptical about its long-term impact. With an impressive clutch of products and services like LinkedIn, Teams, and Office, the company's balance sheet is solid, allowing for continued investment in future technologies. While experts express concerns regarding high capital expenditures and competition in the AI space, many believe that MSFT's extensive ecosystem will support its continued market share and growth trajectory moving forward.

BUY

There’s nothing he could say except that it’s looking very good. If you bought it here, would hold. The chart is looking healthy. It has a little less volatility than other tech names. A gem.

STRONG BUY

He bought it in 2009, so he's taken some profits this year. But they continue to beat expectations. MSFT is the #2 player in the cloud, which continues to grow. He expects MSFT to close the gap with the #1 player, Amazon. They generate a ton of free cash. He sees 20% upside from here.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 02/18, Up 21%) It is still one of his largest holdings. He still really likes the company. It is hard to find a company with as good a growth outlook. They are the second larger player in the cloud. They have been growing faster because they have the business trust (not to steal your data). Shares have topped out with choppy markets but will go higher when markets move.

PARTIAL BUY

He is trimming in accounts with more than 2%. They are doing a great job. 8 times earnings and double digit growth with strong margins. It is not as cheap as it was and a lot of this is factored into the stock price. It is a reasonable price and can be bought in a new position in a small amount.

COMMENT

Cloud is a different way of looking at computing. It's a secular change, and Microsoft and Amazon are at the forefront. In the cloud, "smart" processes are easier because you can use and analyze data more effectively.

HOLD

He really likes MSFT-Q as it sits in the software space in tech. It has good cash flow, is defensible and immune to tariff wars. The darling in the space. Trading in mid-20 PE ratio, but along with a similar growth rate in revenues. He likes the cloud opportunities and subscription services. Just mind the cycle in the market right now. Have a stop to protect yourself.

HOLD

A great company and one of his largest holdings. He love the subscription business. The cloud business is just another natural for them. Over 50% of their sales come internationally. It trades at 30 times earnings and has grown the dividend by 10% yearly. You have to own this. Yield 1.5%

BUY

MSFT vs. Amazon No, they don't compete with each other. Amazon is the best cloud host, but not for small/medium-sized businesses. Instead, MSFT fills this gap very well, at they collect recurring revenue doing this, like a utility. This stabilizes their margins and increases MSFT's growth.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

An unbelievable 10-15 year turnaround. A wonderful business. His buy price is $125. Keep your eye on it. Firing on all cylinders. Cloud infrastructure growing like crazy, as is the legacy Microsoft suite. Business model has evolved well to subscriptions. Reasonable multiple, phenomenal company. Wait for a pullback.

DON'T BUY

Beat on bottom and top lines. Cloud business is 1/3 of the company. Growth being driven by migration to the cloud. Not a good entry point, valuation's too high for its growth rate. More compelling are Amazon, Google, Alibaba.

HOLD

The company has done well growing revenues, cash flow and earnings. They have also reinvigorated their investor base -- meaning a higher PE ratio is the new norm. They have reinvented themselves and are very active in subscription revenues, the cloud and gaming. He does not own it at this time.

BUY

They're into themes--cloud, software, gaming, social media (LinkedIn)--with strong tailwinds. He likes MSFT. Valuations have risen a bit (Google and Facebook have pulled back). MSFT's growth isn't as attractive as those two, but investors love their runway of growth.

STRONG BUY

Loves it. MSFT is still misunderstood: MSFT is actually part utility, because you must pay MSFT once a year to use their services, just like you would pay a utility regularly. Guarantee income. Also, the cloud business still has enormous room to grow.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Possible summer pullback? Absolutely, you may be able to buy it back cheaper this summer -- around $120. If you plan to take profit, don't sell all of it -- only a portion. It gives you some flexibility. This stock has to be a core holding in any tech portfolio. It is so consistent.

BUY

For a TFSA And Google. Both have good room to grow. MSFT has defensive, stable earnings growth with lots of diversification in many markets. Buy either or both for the long-term.
