Microsoft Corp (MSFT) continues to be viewed with a degree of skepticism and optimism by market experts. While there are concerns about its position in the AI race and its reliance on OpenAI, analysts are largely positive about Microsoft's overall performance in the cloud arena, particularly with Azure's growth expected to exceed 40%. The company's recent earnings showed a strong performance, despite a sell-off initiated by higher capex spending. Numerous analysts believe that Microsoft's recent decline presents an opportunity to buy at attractive valuation levels, as it trades at a PE ratio that is competitive with the broader market. Many experts encourage taking advantage of any dips for long-term investment, highlighting MSFT's strong cash flow and dividend growth, which underpin its resilience despite the broader challenges faced by the software sector.

G00G

BUY

Tech stocks have held up fairly well and he thinks their prospects are pretty good. The one thing that will help them in their fight against Apple (AAPL-Q) is their new operating system that will replace Vista and put them back on the map. Xbox still has a dominant place in the industry and is still growing,

HOLD

(Market Call Minute.) Cheap. Subject to the market outlook. Still facing a lot of challenges with free software.

DON'T BUY

(Market Call Minute.) Trend is distinctly on the downside. Seasonality is negative between now and October.

BUY

Disappointing performer, in part because of the debacle with Yahoo (YHOO-Q). Certainly need something on the search side and expects that they will. Cheap on cash flow/earnings so she thinks it is nearing a bottom. Expects it will return more cash to shareholders.

TOP PICK

$23.31 is the model price, a 35% positive differential. Have $40 billion in cash and no debt. Yielding 3%.

BUY

Likes software. Great recurring revenue line. Would prefer something with higher growth such as Oracle (ORCL-Q). Doesn't see how you will get hurt in this stock. If you are looking for something that will participate when things get better, this will.

COMMENT

Just reported weak numbers and refused to give out guidance in cutting 5000 jobs. Large cash balance. Would consider at $14-$15.

WEAK BUY

Formed a bit of a consolidation range between $18 and $21. If it breaks above $21, it could go up another $4.

BUY

A covered call strategy would be more practical. He would use a stock replacement option instead of the stock. Sell your front month at the money or slightly out of the money Call, month in and month out. This company might have a little downside left in it.

COMMENT

Doesn't think it will get together with Yahoo (YHOO-Q). Yahoo management behaviour during the whole Microsoft bid was appalling bad.

DON'T BUY

Very successful company over the years but they really are living on past glories. Producing a lot of cash but doesn't seem to be able to come up with a home run. There are a lot of companies he would rather own in the technology space.

COMMENT

Microsoft (MSFT-Q), Cisco (CSCO-Q) and Intel (INTC-Q) are probably going to weather the downturn relatively well. They are all effectively utilities and have significantly free cash flows with little or no debt.

SELL

This stock has been doing nothing for a very long time. May bounce back up to $24.

COMMENT

Cash is well in excess of all book liabilities. He likes to get in at 10x peak earnings or less.

WEAK BUY

Likes US large-cap stocks right now and likes the software sector. Most of these companies generate an enormous amount of cash and need virtually no financing. Earnings multiples have come down a ton over the last 8 years. Think you could probably make money on this one. Given a choice, he would rather own Symantic (SYMC-Q) or Sybase (SY-N) but you will probably be okay in this one.
