Microsoft Corp (MSFT) is at a pivotal point as it navigates the challenges and opportunities presented by AI and cloud computing. Many experts acknowledge the company's strong fundamentals, including robust cash flow, a solid balance sheet, and resilient growth in cloud services like Azure. However, there's a prevailing concern about its AI initiatives, particularly Co-Pilot, which has faced criticism and competition from rival offerings. Despite some analysts expressing skepticism over its current valuation and growth trajectory, a significant portion of reviews reflects a belief in its long-term potential, suggesting it could recover from its recent downturn. Overall, while MSFT has experienced considerable fluctuations, many industry experts are optimistic about its future, indicating it remains a valuable asset for investors focused on tech.

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.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jun 08/18, Up 25%) Software service with a recurring membership fee is doing great. They are seeing 20% growth in revenues and he expects that to continue. Software is not in the cross hairs like semi-conductors and other computer equipment.

BUY

Their cloud offering is really a force to be reckoned with. A name he missed.

COMMENT

China-US trade war is having an effect on entire tech sector. It's a bit more immune to it, but he wouldn't be stepping in front of this train. Perhaps a bit more defensive as a tech in terms of its scope.

BUY

It is big and liquid and has a solid balance sheet. They have an improving margin profile. The 365 initiative involves paying monthly or annually instead of upgrading whenever they remove support for old versions. They are a major cloud computing enabler. This gives them lots of recurring revenue at high margins. To some extent they are turning the company into a utility.

TOP PICK

Sleep at night, buy the company. Expensive but they are growing in their cloud business. Earnings growth is accelerating. they have a 30 multiple into next year. (Analysts’ price target is $144.00)

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.
