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.

AAPL

BUY

He's bearish tech, but this is excellent. Has performed well, pays a bit of a yield and earns a profit. Rock solid balance sheet. If you want to be in tech, buy this. You could even take some profits here.

BUY

This company has made a great transition from selling a physical item to the software as a service. They also have other arms with high growth. Fortress balance sheet with high growth.

BUY

They are in a strong position because the enterprise is moving to the cloud. They have a massive installed base. It is looking like it can support double digit revenue growth for years to come.

BUY

It's not cheap now, but you're buying quality and recurring revenue, plus sustainable earnings. A great chart with momentum. This meets his criteria. A great company.

BUY

What one tech stock to buy? MSFT or Cisco. MSFT is the poster-child of the sofrware side with fantastic management and delivers logical guidance. Cisco he likes for supplying in the big 5G deployment. Recently beat earnings.

TOP PICK

MSFT trades at 21x earnings and pays a nice dividend that will grow. Their issue is that MSFT is an enterprise company dealing with large companies. People are moving a lot more to the cloud. This will make huge margins through Office 365, cloud and their LinkedIn purchase. As more people go to the cloud, they'll need help which is where MSFT steps in. MSFT will slowly grow and pay a nice return. This has held because of good earnings. Great prospects. (Analysts’ price target is $126.17)

TOP PICK

It is a core holding. It is a little expensive but they own the small business market. The cloud positions them well. The growth will accelerate as movement to the cloud continues. (Analysts’ price target is $126.34)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 31/18, Up 13%) There is a secular theme in software as a service, as well as the cloud and this one is right in the middle of this. They are the absolute leader in their space. It pulled off its highs, but as one of the last stocks to sell off, it is a company you can buy here and hold it for 2 to 3 years.

BUY

An excellent company with a strong long-term record. Stable earnings and cash flow generation. Consistently grows. Recurring revenue with high margins. It's not as cheap as it once was. He added during the last earnings when it pulled back.

TOP PICK

They have such a good quality office program that they are moving to subscription based. They are becoming the lead in cloud and storage centers. They should be able to grow at 15-20% each year and could double in the next 4 to 5 years. (Analysts’ price target is $125.59)

BUY

The Cloud business has been strong in past years, but has slowed down a bit as late. Also, the PC market continues to decline. That said, MSFT will continue to transfer to the Cloud, but long-term they should do well. If you own this, hang tight. There could be a short-term hiccup, but you can accumulate shares for the long term.

COMMENT

Looks okay. It's recovered from its dip and it wasn't away from its consolidation of $105. The upside will be limited. Earnings come out tomorrow. He'd guess buy it AFTER the earnings. If it falls below $100 it'll be tricky, but if it break above the upside will be limited. It's a good way to diversify the portfolio. An ETF with this is a safer bet. It may consolidate around $110.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 01/18, Up 1%) The longer term trend is up. He has owned this one for a while and he thinks they will own it in the foreseeable future.

TOP PICK

The CEO has done an amazing job since 2014, changing the business model from hardware to service. Now, they're only behind Amazon in the cloud. Has a strong team. Execution has been superb. They've added debt, but still have a AAA rating and are buying back stock. (Analysts’ price target is $125.14)

BUY

Just added on the recent pull back. Well positioned in terms of the cloud services and they did a good job in terms of transitioning to a subscription model for their Office programs. Lots of cash in their balance sheet and recurring revenue streams.
