PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 18/22, Up 27%)

Excellent business with high margin, "low capital" style fundamentals.
Expecting further earnings growth.
Quality name that has great management team.
Higher interest rates not impacting business.
Able to raise prices in step with inflation.
Very good time to buy.
 

BUY

He's added shares twice in recent weakness. Nobody cared that they delivered a fine set of figures. Make no sense!

DON'T BUY

Great company. Fabulous CEO. Always trades at a premium, and that's kept him away. He only has space for 20 stocks, and he sees better opportunities in AMZN, AAPL, and GOOG.

HOLD
Trim?

MSFT is a must-own with the AI themes, but right now its PEG is 1.4x. AAPL is another must-own, but pricier at 2.7x. Both are all over the AI themes. He wouldn't trim either.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Concerns over ramping up generative AI in their operations was a big reason why the stock got hammered today, but he likes the stock at this level. Too much cost ahead of potential gains. Their CFO is known for underpromising and over-delivering. She sets a low bar like she did in last night's conference call. The CFO didn't include in her forecast the huge revenue stream that will come from gen AI. MSFT did post an EPS beat. Shares sold off today but that selling will end. That's when you buy.

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research

With the stock up 40% YTD there was bound to be some profit-taking on a not-100%-perfect quarter. But we continue to view it as a premier growth company for the long term.

BUY

Owns it, likes it, talking about taking weight higher. Catching the AI trade as a leader along with AMZN. AI is forecast as a $50B industry in a couple of years. Every little business has MSFT on its desktops. Thinks it will go higher.

BUY
What AI stock to buy?

Also, Nvidia, Google and Meta, all have the money to invest in this and buy smaller companies for the long-term.

TOP PICK

Still has a decent runway. He targets $375. If they are allowed to buy Activision, it will add to their cloud and other businesses. A core holding. Also are a major player in AI. They have chat GPT embedded in their APIs.

(Analysts’ price target is $349.01)

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 12/23, Up 37.9%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Our PAST TOP PICK with MSFT is progressing well.  We now recommend to trail up the stop (from $260) to $315. 

BUY

A great business with recurring revenues, with high-margin software revenues. Cloud will re-accelerate growth. AI will drive an upgrade cycle.

DON'T BUY

He has traded it and wouldn't buy now. It is toying with its previous peak in late 2021 and could meet resistance.

PARTIAL SELL

He trimmed his MSFT holding because valuations were getting high.
