BUY

He's short a lot of tech stocks, but MSFT is doing very well. He had been long this, then sold it a few months ago. MSFT instead is a buy. That said, he wouldn't be too quick to jump into any tech stock now--they've been volatile, overowned in ETFs, so there's been some unwound. MSFT has great growth and dominates their field. The CEO has done a fantastic job ressurecting their growth, especially in the Cloud. They are well-position in Cloud which will fuel growth. They also have a ton of cash. Stay long on this. Maybe you could add more at a lower price.

TOP PICK

They do not have a data privacy overhang like lots of other FANG stocks have. They pivoted themselves to the cloud. They are doing good things for the enterprise. They pay a pretty good dividend. The stock will continue to grow at 15%+ for the next while. If you get this next week or so on the pull back close to $100, that would be good. (Analysts’ price target is $125.77)

HOLD

They continue to provide good earnings. They sold it too early. He thinks valuation is too high. Well run company, generating a lot of cash flow. This should be a long term hold.

WAIT

Add more? Has hung in fairly well compared to other tech. Viewed as more of a traditional tech company. Well managed. Cloud services are growing. Doing all the right things fundamentally. Tech spend will continue to increase. Sees core businesses growing. If you already own it, hold, but wait to add more and see if it comes down and holds around $95.

TOP PICK

After watching it, she bought it during the recent pullback under $103. They're transitioning their Office business into a subscriber-based business. Then, there's Windows. The last third is their Cloud business, which is well-positioned, just behind Amazon. They have a global business. Companies are comfortable with Microsoft so there's security and confidence in MSFT. The Cloud has a lot of room to grow. Boasts a strong balance sheet and a stable, recurring revenue stream. Strong balance sheet; they are net cash positive, actually. They don't need the debt markets to finance growth. (Analysts’ price target is $125.69)

BUY ON WEAKNESS

How much to buy this as an entry point? At $106, it's in a mid-high multiple, which is a little rich for him, but then again, it's done very well under a high multiple. They have transitioned very well from software to the cloud. Their CEO has done a masterful job. He'd prefer to see this priced lower, but he's not sure he'll see that.

TOP PICK

They have 18% top line growth and are killing it in cloud. It has recurring revenue and high growth. It is not trading at a crazy multiple. He thinks it can hang in in a downturn. (Analysts’ price target is $125.69)

PARTIAL SELL

A mature tech company. He is concerned about the valuation. Great company did a turn to the cloud. It had a very good run.

TOP PICK

Owned it for quite a few years. They broke out from a giant base a few years ago. He likes what they are doing. He thinks it is still on a uptrend. Great entry point. Dividend Yield of 1.6%.

COMMENT

He added to their current position during the recent pullback. This is #6 in all their holdings and this is the leader in their software holdings and is contributing in a substantial way to the company’s 45% growth in revenues. The subscription business is brilliant. Their cloud business now rivals that of Google’s. (Analysts’ price target is $126)

PARTIAL BUY

A great business positioned well in OS and the Cloud for enterprises--which is a strong secular tailwind. They are still gaining business as they move to a subscription-based system. MSFT generates a lot of free cash flow that will increase dividends over time. They hold a lot of cash that they will repatriate from overseas. A good business, and, yes, a little expensive, so he would add to a position to some degree, though not huge.

DON'T BUY

The company reached a big target at 10 times book value near $120. The problem is that its intrinsic value, based on earnings growth, is about 30% lower than the current stock price. It the market has a pullback, this could pull back to at least $93.

TOP PICK

Software tends to be more stable and he likes the business model. He worries he may regret this one if the market pulls back, but likes their earnings growth potential. Yield 1.7%. (Analysts’ price target is $124.32)

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Definitely on her radar. Today, it pulled back to $106 which is getting pretty close to her pulling the trigger. Before, it was too expensive. Been doing very well this year. Nice recurring revenue stream and their businesses are doing well. Their cloud business is growing. Gaming doing well.

TOP PICK

The run will continue. Their story is cloud transition, moving client workloads on-premise (in their buildings) onto the cloud. MSFT's data centre capacity rivals Amazon's AWS, the market leaders. MSFT is catching up with advantages being brand loyalty--customers trust them for dependability. Lots of runway left; he has a target of $145 (1.6% dividend, Analysts' price target:$124.32)
