This summary was created by AI, based on 44 opinions in the last 12 months.

Oracle Corporation is currently navigating through a challenging period characterized by significant investments in data center infrastructure amid rising debt levels. Analysts express mixed sentiments, with some highlighting the potential for Oracle to emerge as an AI powerhouse, supported by its partnership with OpenAI and a promising EPS growth projection by 2030. However, concerns regarding cost control, capital expenditure, and the impact of AI investments persist. The company has seen volatile stock performance, with recent sharp declines following mixed earnings reports and a general downturn in the software sector. Overall, while Oracle has potential growth avenues, uncertainties about its financial health and execution of its strategic vision make the outlook complex and variable.

TOP PICK
His model price is $86 or a 46% upside. They are now involved with Tiktok. We have to wait to hear from ORCL-N on how this is going to work. (Analysts’ price target is $62.31)
TOP PICK
He likes the technical chart that is about to break to an all time high. The pandemic has had no negative impact on the stock. He has a model price of $83.80 -- about 46% upside. They are doing huge share buybacks. They are in the Top 100 of the S&P. Yield 1.69% (Analysts’ price target is $54.90)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 12/19, Up 3%) It is a sleeper. Next Tuesday they will report earnings. His price target is around $60. He expects lower revenues, but an increase in earnings. They have a massive cloud enterprise resource planning service. He still owns it.
TOP PICK
His model price is $83.64. Yield 1.81% (Analysts’ price target is $50.78)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 22/19, Down 7%) He loves it. Old Tech. There is a new CEO coming in. It is a great company. They beat earnings estimates because everyone went out and bought laptops for work-at-home.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 22/19, Down 4%) They probably made every wrong move in terms of tech that you had in the past 15 years, missing the cloud space. His model price is $72 or a 39% upside. It does not have the same beta as the rest of them. It has a lot of potential on the upside.
COMMENT

IBM vs ORCL? Everyone is looking for the next MSFT. He would go with IBM. There are some new high level managers, who he feels will best take them into that direction. The problem with IBM is that the shares are trading near where analysts are setting their target price. He might buy 1/3 of a position here.

DON'T BUY

Oracle vs. IBM You get what you pay for. He's never made money in a value tech stock. If a tech stock can't grow, how can it attract investors? Oracle has legacy issues. Neither Oracle or IBM is his first choice. There are better choices in tech.

TOP PICK
It has shown consistency of earnings in the last two quarters. He likes their involvement in supply-chain management and customer services. They have gotten into subscription services. His top 2 software holding. His 12 month target is $62. Yield 1.79% (Analysts’ price target is $53.59)
TOP PICK
He's long held this. Has a $64.34 price target. Has shown good earnings lately. (Analysts’ price target is $53.37)
DON'T BUY
Follows it, but doesn't own it. Better opportunities elsewhere. Lumps it in with IBM. Ball and chain of a lot of legacy products. If you're interested in the hardware or cloud space, there are better choices.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 01/18, Up 2%) Just sold it. They got bearish and wanted to raise cash. It is a trading stock and trading close to its target now.
TOP PICK
In a consolidation pattern. He likes this type of stock because it is trading on a range and you can trade it from bottom to top. Technology is moving into its seasonal period. Not a high risk trade. Yield of 1.6%. (Analysts’ price target is $53.4)
DON'T BUY
He likes the runway heading into subscription services and cloud based business. He would prefer to own MSFT-N.
HOLD

(A Top Pick November 13, 2017. Down 1%). This reminds him of Oracle and Cisco, which sat at the same level for a long time and then revitalized themselves. Oracle relies on the big banks and other large companies with large databases. Other companies have moved into Software As A Service with applications that run across the cloud. Oracle’s customers have huge data centers and don’t need to move. Data protection is challenging in the cloud. The street has been looking to Oracle to increase its presence in the cloud. It is moving but not as fast as people want. He likes the business and it will get there eventually, but it will take more time.
