Suffers weak cell phone sales from China, no lift from AI, a surprise slowdown in service revenues, weak VisionPro sales and a lacklustre full-year forecast. That's all he's heard the last two weeks. Shares could very well fall despite low expectations, but don't dump the stock. Own, don't trade it. Amazing managers who will fix whatever goes wrong, and products are superb.
Is up 55% over the year, though -4% today after earnings and 12% so far this year. They pre-announced strong topline numbers of 25% revenue growth as global Da Vinci procedures grew 18%--and they sell consumables for the Da Vinci system, so more revenues to come. They guided 13-16% DV growth this year--strong numbers. And yet they disappointed investors last night, because of the full-year forecast of 67-68% gross margin, down from last year's 69.1% and below estimates. Also, they signaled rising costs over last year, which the reaction is overblown and misguided. After all, demand for the system is durable and every US company is facing headwinds from the strong USD and potential impact from new Trump tariffs (Mexico makes some of their products). Also, their higher expenses are building the company, which is good.
Up 108% since Oct. 21. A cloud server. Up 7.9% today. It used to be Yandex, the Google of Russia, which no one paid attention to. They plan to acquire as many GPUs as they can and build-new data centres. Their core is the AI infrastructure business. There's limited financial info, but adjusted EBITDA is -$7 million billion last December. When shares jumped last December, Citron Research recommended it twice, but Citron has been charged with fraud twice in an alleged pump and dump operation. NBIS claims to be close to NVDA, but that is in doubt. It trades at 20x its full-year revenue forecast--very expensive.
A wild card. He's sold some of his shares lately. They're building a lot of data centres, but their AI PC failed (so far) and possibly there's fallout with OpenAI and possibly CoPilot will disappoint. If MSFT didn't have such a huge installed base, he would have sold all his shares.
