This summary was created by AI, based on 132 opinions in the last 12 months.

Experts have mixed opinions on Microsoft's current position, particularly in relation to its AI initiatives and overall valuation. While some analysts express concerns over the performance of its Co-Pilot AI and the potential risks from competitors like OpenAI and Anthropic, others highlight the company's strong financial position, significant free cash flow, and robust revenue growth, particularly from its cloud segment, Azure. Many agree that the stock has become attractive at current price levels, with valuations ranging from fair to undervalued due to its solid business fundamentals, ongoing investments in AI and cloud infrastructure, and potential for future growth. Amidst the uncertainties in the tech sector, they believe Microsoft remains well-positioned to adapt and thrive, even as it navigates the challenges posed by the evolving AI landscape.

DON'T BUY

Getting attacked from different directions. Picking up revenues from Windows 7 and the new Office product. If the economy turns, the stock will do better. Better growth opportunities elsewhere.

COMMENT

Earnings will be fairly strong because of their Windows 7 and office 2010 product refresh. He is concerned with their long-term sustainability of growth. Even though earnings have doubled over a decade, stock price has stayed flat. Would treat it more as a trade. There is a ton of opportunity for growth in other stocks in the technology space. (See Top Picks.)

COMMENT

Off almost 20% this year so has been disappointing. Google (GOOG-Q) and Apple (AAPL-Q) have been eating their pie in the cloud. Windows 7 is doing very well and there is a major refresh in the PC world and are still 90% of the market. Should push more into the consumer side and into the emerging markets side. Probably a safe time to get in.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 28/09. Up 25%.) Great opportunity for their enterprise side to do quite well. Windows 7 is doing very well and they're coming out with a new office product.

TOP PICK

Really a poster child with their balance sheet, free cash flow and free cash flow growth. Have various new product introductions, cost cutting initiatives. 5% a year share buyback. 2% dividend. Starting to issue debt at extremely cheap levels so have access to cheap capital.

DON'T BUY

More of a mature technology name. Trading at about 13X forward earnings. Long-term market growth forecast is growing at about 11.5%. Could benefit from Windows 7 upgrades. Corporate PC cycle will be a catalyst. Office 2010 is being adopted more heavily. There are other names with more growth in the tech space.

BUY

Prefers others such as Apple (AAPL-Q), Oracle (ORCL-Q) and Cisco (CSCO-Q) but at this price, it is an interesting value. Windows 7 has been widely adopted and Office 2010 has done quite well and we are in a refresh cycle. Good short-term hold.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick May 4/10, Down 10.85%) Sold a covered call option. The call cushioned 3% points, so loss is only 7%.

BUY

Apple has now become the largest tech firm. He owns both Apple and Microsoft. This one is exceptionally cheap. Windows 7 seems to be a hit. Never seen a stock of this type trading at 11x earnings.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 12/08. Up 37%.) Reduced his position a little bit.

DON'T BUY

Doesn't say anything great ahead for this company. Reasonably valued but can't seem to avoid spinning its wheels. Great cash flow but very modest growth.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 28/09. Up 40%.) Great story. Good products coming out. Still a buy.

DON'T BUY

Going through a pretty strong product cycle right now. They have Windows 7 and they're coming out with Office 2010. This may already be in the stock price. No longer a growth stock. A “show me” stock.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 20/09. Up 47.62%.)

TOP PICK

Hasn’t done much since the ‘90s. On the cusp of a huge earnings explosion. Windows 7. XP was a bust. No upgrade in software in 10 years. Their new search engine is the first as good as Google. They now have a smart phone offering. It was a sleeper. It’s getting ready to ‘hockey stick’ its earnings.
