BUY
Microsoft Corp

Now trading at 200-day MA and oversold, with RSI around 41-42. Likes it here. Long term the chart doesn't get much better, with higher highs and higher lows. Valuation a bit pricey at 3x PEG ratio, 32x forward PE, and 15-16% growth. At forefront of AI space.

TOP PICK
Microsoft Corp

Misunderstood company - best source of value is distribution (not new tech). Ability to scale new technologies unprecedented. Ability to manage capital and manage business very strong. Excellent margins and strong cash flows. CEO is essential to company success, but company has reached "escape velocity", so not concerned about management ability (can be replaced).

WAIT
Microsoft Corp

They're spending at least $80 billion of capex in AI to keep up with peers, but this has been overhang on the stock. Shares are up only 13% this year, lagging Mag 7 peers. It's early--we don't know what's going on with their AI, but MSFT's suite of services have always been aimed at operational efficiency. We'll see how their AI plays out in coming quarters.

PARTIAL BUY
Microsoft Corp

Is up 13% for the year, but most of those gains happened in January, driven by AI hopes. MSFT is spending a lot on AI. The stock is running in place, and expects it to restart its positive momentum. However, we need to first see benefit coming from their AI spending. Near-term, the tech winners in AI are Amazon, Alphabet and Nvidia. But set your expectations for MSFT for the long term.

WATCH
Microsoft Corp

He owns MSFT, and it's also involved in quantum computing. Other names to think about are GOOG, AMZN, IBM, Atos out of Europe, and Toshiba from Japan.

If you double your money, do the smart thing and sell half. These tech stocks are 3x riskier than the market if interest rates go up. It's about managing risk in your portfolio.

(Note the short timeframe.)
Seasonal time for tech, so he's going to keep holding as long as a massive bear doesn't come along. Doesn't have a lot of risk, as he knows exactly where he'd sell it. If it falls below the breakout point, he'll starting paring back. Has only a 2-3% position.

TOP PICK
Microsoft Corp

By far, the world's biggest software company. Scale advantage, defensive growth. Great exposure to long-term secular info-tech themes: digital transformation, cloud computing, business intelligence, AI, security. 70% of revenues are recurring. Mission-critical products. Strong incumbency advantage, big competitive moat. 

Sustainable EPS growth rate. Valuation is reasonable in view of growth prospects. Yield is 0.8%.

Microsoft Corp
(A Top Pick Jun 24/24, Down 7%)

(Note the short timeframe.)
Still holds it, probably won't be selling; he'll wait and see. Has done well because of AI. Could move up and down around this range for a while before it breaks out to the upside. Definitely in the sideways phase.

BUY
Microsoft Corp
Retired person's portfolio.

Stalled out. His 12-month price target is $491, decent runway. Of the Mag 7, probably want this one at the top of your list because it hasn't accelerated as much as the other 6. So many horses in the race, from cloud to personal computing to business productivity. Nicely priced.

TOP PICK
Microsoft Corp

Its PE sank to 34.4x after that report, close to its median average of 33.94x. Its quarter was far from a disaster, so the sell-off was an over-reaction. Year-over-year earnings actually rose 10% and sales 16%, while Azure revenues jumped 32%. MSFT pays a 0.77% dividend, so you're not buying this for income. This is one to hold long term.
