Microsoft Corp (MSFT) finds itself at a crossroads as it navigates through concerns regarding its AI investments and overall market valuation. Experts express a blend of optimism and caution, noting that while the stock is experiencing pressure from fears surrounding its cloud growth and competition with AI rivals, it remains fundamentally strong due to its solid revenue growth and significant free cash flow. Many analysts believe that the current valuation at around 20-25x forward PE represents a fair price, especially given the company’s projected earnings growth over the next few years. The shift towards subscription-based revenue models and the potential of its AI initiatives, particularly the Azure cloud services, are highlighted as key drivers for future growth. Overall, despite the recent selloff, there's a solid belief in Microsoft's long-term potential, making it a potential buy on dips.

AAPL

TOP PICK

Nice upgrade to their product suite is coming. Changing mix a little to become more oriented to the online community. Early success of their Bing search engine may suggest a challenge to Google (GOOG-Q). Any growth in the economy over the next little while will help push this along. Looks cheap relative to the S&P.

BUY

Multinational company that has operations everywhere. Has been a dreadful stock over the last 10 years but churns out cash like anything. Triple A borrower. It is the utility on the operating systems of PCs. Coming out with a new edition which sounds quite good.

TOP PICK

Really cheap at 11X earnings. Great yield. Fantastic balance sheet. $30 billion in cash and tons of free cash flow. Windows7 is coming out and has great positive response and thinks there will be a good upgrade cycle on this. There's also a new Microsoft Office coming out in 2010.

TOP PICK

Despite being the largest software company globally it is still growing at an impressive clip. Pristine balance sheet with $30 billion in cash. Generates $350 million cash a week. Has a very attractive suite of new offerings coming up in the next 12 months.

BUY

Has been languishing for quite some time. Have 2 things that are possibly trigger points for the stock to move forward. 1) Their Xbox franchise is getting to a point where it is just about to break even. 2) There is a new operating system coming out in October (Windows 7) that will replace the Vista. It has gotten very positive reviews.

COMMENT

Not a big fan of this. Growth is not there. Thinks it could run to the mid-$20’s and you should get out of it at that time. Use a stoploss of $20.

TOP PICK

Probably trading at its lowest PE since it became public. Trading at about 10X earnings. Very low expectations for earnings growth over the next little while. Windows 7 will be coming out and that is positive. Almost 3% yield.

TOP PICK

One of the only companies with an AAA rating in the US. Just raised a reasonably significant amount of cash at incredibly cheap rates so their balance sheet is in excellent shape. Have a number of new product releases coming out over the next 12 to 18 months.

BUY

Just offered a $4 billion 30-year debt offering at 1% above treasuries. This will allow them to buy back their stock or make accretive acquisitions.

TOP PICK

Has been finding greater value in some of the larger cap, more stable names. Very stable recurring revenue base. Significant international growth opportunities. Trades at about 11X earnings and has $18 billion net cash on its balance sheet.

HOLD

Has been a laggard in the tech sector. Sales growth is not up to what it could be. Has been losing market share to the Apple operating system. There is a potential to become better with their prospective new operating system. 2.6% yield.

SELL

With their operating system, they are being left behind. They will continue to do well on the cash they are spinning off but the growth days are behind them.

BUY

Market Call Minute. Like a utility but recurring revenue from existing suit of products. Expect dividend to rise.

COMMENT

More like a utility than a growth stock. Will do okay if the market goes higher. Software group is strong and it's one he likes but you can be really choosy at this point. He prefers BMC Software (BMC-N) and Sybase (SY-N). (Sybase grew its revenue by 28% last quarter and have very strong growth.)

BUY

50% profit margins and selling for 10X PE. 3% dividend. The utility on the operating systems for PCs. Rock solid balance sheet. Will be a survivor. Will be a very good earner for you going forward.
