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.

DON'T BUY
Is scarey because it depends on one person, and he can be a lose canon. If something happened to him the company would be half its current price.
BUY
Owned for a long time. Merger unlikely to happen. Business is getting better. They produce a lot of cash flow.
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.
