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.

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.

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.
