  • Microsoft Stock at a Crucial $480: Potential Surge to $600 or Drop to $400
    January 21, 2026, 2:18 PM EST. As of January 21, 2026, Microsoft (MSFT) trades at $480, facing a potential climb to $600 or a drop to $400. The company's growth is fueled by its Azure cloud platform projected to hit $90 billion revenue and a partnership with OpenAI enhancing AI tools. However, regulatory risks loom, especially a possible $5 billion EU fine, and macroeconomic concerns around recession add uncertainty. Microsoft's stock has outperformed the S&P 500 year-to-date by 4 points but stands at a crossroads.
