About Microsoft

Microsoft builds AI-powered platforms, tools, and services for consumers, businesses, and governments. Beginning in fiscal 2027 it reports two segments.

Agents and Infra is the dominant segment. It includes:
- the Azure cloud and AI infrastructure platform;
- Microsoft 365 commercial and consumer cloud productivity subscriptions;
- productivity and server licensing;
- industry solutions;
- frontier and support services.

Devices and Consumer includes:
- search and advertising;
- Xbox gaming content, services, and hardware;
- Windows OEM licensing and devices.

The company's Microsoft Cloud offerings generate a large and growing share of revenue, backed by a substantial commercial remaining performance obligation. Microsoft is investing heavily in data center and AI infrastructure to meet demand for AI and agent workloads, and it holds an investment in OpenAI that materially affects reported GAAP earnings. Its stated mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more, with a focus on making AI broadly available and responsible. Updated

Latest Activity

Nvidia Shares Sink on New Allegations Against CEO Jensen Huang

  • CoreWeave's beat, raised guidance and canceled 10b5-1 plan sparked a semi rally, with chip ETFs up over 15% off last week's low
  • Reports of a second Huang affair and a board meeting to replace him sent shares down 8-9% after hours; Kalshi odds hit 70-87%
  • Dan Ives calls an ouster a clearing event worth $225; Dan Niles sees 99% odds Huang is out and ~145 as support
  • Gene Munster expects a gap down then recovery and disputes that AMD takes meaningful share; Apple closed at a record

The debate has moved past whether Huang stays to what Nvidia is worth without him, and the panel's range is wide: a $225 target against a 145 support test. Traders expect the real clearing to come with next Tuesday's earnings report rather than the board meeting.

AI Relief Rally, Nvidia Governance and CoreWeave Earnings

  • Baird's Tristan Guerra calls for Nvidia's CEO to step down and cuts the target from $500 to $200 on China export governance
  • CoreWeave's beat and the CEO scrapping his stock sale plan triggered a 25% rally and broad AI relief
  • Panel splits on whether semis bottomed: Broadcom down 33%, AMD down 22%, chip equipment names off 30-50%
  • Goldman floats a third hike into March 2027 as Lebenthal argues for 50bp in December; retail holds up on eight straight XRT weekly gains

The bull case for chips now rests on multiples: Amoroso notes semiconductor PEs sit at their lowest since 2022, while Terranova says the bottom is in. On the consumer side the panel leans toward auto-parts repair names over discretionary retail, with record credit card debt the counterweight.

Is Jensen Huang Finished At Nvidia? | Dan Ives

  • Ives puts 15% odds on Jensen Huang exiting as CEO, and sees a 25-30% drop in the stock if it happens
  • Chips to China are 'done' as both parties unite on an anti-China tech stance after the midterms
  • AI demand-to-supply still 4-to-1 with 75% of data centers permitted; Anthropic's IPO value halved to $1T
  • CoreWeave called 'essentially an SPV for Nvidia'; Palantir and Tesla's Optimus framed as the durable bets

One person's job carries roughly a quarter of Nvidia's value, and the board review and congressional hearings are still ahead. Ives stays bullish on the AI trade itself, pointing at permitted capacity and a 4-to-1 demand-to-supply gap, while flagging CoreWeave's capital structure as the fragile link.

NVIDIA Fallout, Anthropic IPO and Hot CPI Hit Markets

  • Panel calls Nvidia's slide quant-driven, not fundamental, with analyst targets barely moving and Microsoft retaking the market cap lead
  • Josh Brown: AI isn't one trade, pointing to Amazon up 17% year to date against Nvidia's decline
  • Anthropic marketing its IPO at $70-$78 for a $1.4T valuation, oversubscribed, with AMD, Nvidia and Microsoft in the placements
  • Claude's new Sheets, Whiteboards and Meetings tools knocked Microsoft and other software names lower on the spot

Anthropic going public at a $1.4 trillion target while shipping office software makes Microsoft both an investor in and a target of its own holding. Nvidia is in buyback blackout until its November earnings report, so it cannot defend itself as hot CPI lifts the two-year yield.

IBM is routing 6,000-plus prebuilt agents through Microsoft's cloud, giving both a joint answer to Salesforce and OpenAI in the enterprise agent race.

$IBM and Microsoft $MSFT just launched Imagine Enterprise, a platform to help businesses build, deploy and manage AI agents at scale. It combines 6,000+ prebuilt AI agents and assets from IBM Consulting with Microsoft's cloud, data and security technologies. Initially targeting https://t.co/sUeABl23HA

Mad Money w/ Jim Cramer 11/6/26

  • Cramer calls Friday's tech bounce a dead cat bounce, with sellers waiting on any data-center recovery
  • Cisco seen as oversold after falling from $230 back to the 90s; he'd buy a small position
  • Applied Materials at $332 versus its $740 summer peak is not automatically a buy
  • Neocloud earnings from CoreWeave and Nebius framed as the week's real test on debt costs

Cramer is telling holders of AI infrastructure names that the washout is unfinished, and that a strong jobs report did nothing to help. The one place he is willing to put money is Cisco, which he thinks has been dragged down with everything else. Applied Materials gets the opposite treatment: its lower price still looks expensive because the old price was built on a squeeze.

Mad Money w/ Jim Cramer 11/4/26

  • Cramer ties Apple's 5.3% jump and record high to hopes midterm results slow data center building and cap DRAM prices
  • T-Mobile's new plans cut the $2,000 iPhone Duo to as low as $800 in family bundles, protecting Apple volumes
  • Microsoft rose 6.7% and Amazon 6.1% on the idea cheaper, scarcer data centers enforce capex discipline
  • AMD's big beat finished up only 1%; Nvidia fell 6.5% on the day, down from $239 to about $200

Cramer's read flips the AI trade on its head: regulation that curbs data center construction relieves memory costs for Apple and spending pressure for Microsoft and Amazon, while hitting the chipmakers that need the build to continue. He cautions the move is only a one-day trade, with Friday's payroll report capable of undoing much of it.
