Premium contentMicrosoft Corporation is an American multinational technology corporation headquartered in Redmond, Washington. Microsofts best-known software products are the Windows line of operating systems, the Microsoft Office suite, and the Internet Explorer and Edge web browsers. Social media mentions are up 143% in the past 24h.
Likes it even it at current levels (all-time high). Generative AI is a strong catalyst in the coming 1-3 years. They will charge $30 monthly to use their Copilot AI that 60% of companies plan to try or buy. If Copilot proves to be efficient, the revenues and upside are huge.
Not a value company, but has become a "utility" style company due large scale adoption of products. Very strong product suite with high margins. Excellent management team. 30x earnings per / share hard to justify, but strong dividend and excellent balance sheet. Would recommend holding, or buying on weakness.
Hit record high earlier today. Makes sense especially with exposure to AI space. Cloud business is growing, subscriptions keep the money flowing. Not cheap now at 33.5x, growing at 15x, 2x PEG. Forward price to sales a bit high at 11x.
In all the right spaces and doing the right things. Hold. Be careful adding, as tech did so well last year.

MSFT is expected to grow in the mid-teens on the top-line over the next few years and trades at a forward P/E of 30.9. It trades at a premium, as it shoulld. With that said, we think the bar is high for above-average share price growth at MSFT. They are very large, being scrutinized on acquisitons, not cheap and have had a strong run in the last year. We think it is a name an investor can still do fine with over the long-term, but we might not expect 'fireworks' here either.

IBM lacks the spread of clientele like MSFT. Also, IBM has been getting rid of their hardware business, focusing more on software with AI. In terms of quality, MSFT is better (customer loyalty, Office Suite) while IBM is inferior, offering little growth. IBM isn't a big player moving forward. Among megatech, MSFT is the top.
Price action has been a lot better recently. We are going to see what they are going to do on the tablet side and the mobile side. Since the expectations on this are so neutral in the US, the stock itself is cheap. They have tons of cash. Apple (AAPL-Q) has stolen the spotlight and has been driving the things like the Q’s, the Spider technology index. Stepping into Microsoft is probably not a bad idea.
