Morgan Stanley elevated Microsoft's stock (MSFT) to top pick due to AI tailwinds, setting a price target of $625. Although currently trading at $510, the stock is seen delivering strong total returns, with both institutional buying and bullish predictions establishing a high price floor. As Microsoft unveils Microfluidic cooling technology for data centers, its stock slips along with the rollout of a new AI testbed. Despite these minor setbacks and ongoing tensions over Xbox Game Pass, the company continues to receive strong recommendations, with price targets being consistently updated, including Truist's reiteration of a 'buy' rating with a new target of $675.
Microsoft's CEO offloads $75 million in stock amidst an AI boom, with investors believing it's still a wise move to acquire MSFT shares. Following Q2 earnings, analysts stay optimistic, particularly due to rise in MSFT's Azure operations and OpenAI restructuring deal. However, the stock dips as Europe receives free security updates for Windows 10. Despite the high valuation, records show that if $10K was invested in MSFT stock 10 years ago, you'd have made significant gains, establishing Microsoft as a top, long-term stock. The company additionally restructures its workforce to power an $80 billion AI investment. Its price currently stands at $508, and alongside Oracle's clash in cloud and AI growth, Microsoft's focus remains keenly on boosting Azure and opening fresh prospects with AI.
