This summary was created by AI, based on 46 opinions in the last 12 months.

Oracle Corporation is currently experiencing a tumultuous period marked by significant volatility and market skepticism towards its heavy investments in AI and data centers. Although the company recently reported better-than-expected earnings, concerns about its rising debt levels and cash flow issues continue to loom over investor sentiment. Many analysts see potential in Oracle's long-term earnings growth, particularly through its AI initiatives, projecting substantial EPS increases by 2030. However, a strong reliance on AI and concerns about competition, particularly from better-capitalized peers, has led to caution among experts, with a significant number recommending to hold or wait before making further investments. Despite some optimistic projections, the overall view remains cautious, with calls for prudent positioning amidst ongoing uncertainties in the tech sector.

DON'T BUY
Have had problems, with IBM and Microsoft coming at them, as well as problems trying to acquire Peoplesoft. Last quarter was a big positive surprise because of the stronger US$. Things are getting better, but not his favorite tech name.
DON'T BUY
Ranks well in their database. Year-over-year earnings are up about 20%. Earnings are forecasted to grow modestly from this point on.
DON'T BUY
Has lagged the overall tech market. Has not seen growth and has some margin issues. Prefers others.
TOP PICK
A global play on the basis that databases need to be upgraded. The acquisition of PeopleSoft would also be good.
TRADE
Chart shows that it could be a head and shoulders top.
BUY
Will be weighed down by its proposed acquisition of People Soft. Decision not likely until mid-December. Generates tremendous cash flow and has a strong balance sheet. Not cheap but attractive on a free cash flow basis.
WAIT
Microsoft and IBM are attacking them on the database side. Also been attacked on the application side by others. Trying to make acquisitions to fend them off. If they can buy Peoplesoft they should be OK.
DON'T BUY
Ranks just below the midpoint on their database. Earnings estimates have dropped by 2%. Sales growth is pretty draggy.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
There will be difficulties with acquisitions. Not sure how they're going to proceed once they get the acquisition completed. Will probably see some correction over the next month. Just look some profits.
DON'T BUY
Not sure if these guys are the big winners in the sector.Prefers others.
PAST TOP PICK
(Was a top pick on May 23/03. No change.) Still likes. Should continue showing improvement.
DON'T BUY
Fully valued.
BUY
Likes the space their in. Sees upside to the end of the year.
TOP PICK
A little expensive. They have their year end report at the end of May and the year seems to be shaping up rather well. Have landed some decent deals.
PAST TOP PICK
(Was a top pick on Feb 13. Up 2.6%.) Still likes. A market leader and was bought as a hedge in the event of an uptick in the market.
