Microsoft rebound ahead of Nasdaq open puts AI spending in spotlight

Microsoft rebound ahead of Nasdaq open puts AI spending in spotlight

Microsoft Corporation starts the U.S. premarket session Monday with a setup that’s more straightforward than it was late last week. But holders are staring at the same issue: does the stock deserve its software valuation when the company is spending like an infrastructure player? Nasdaq lists premarket hours as 4:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. Eastern, and regular hours at 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The exchange also marks July 3 as closed for the Independence Day observed holiday. Microsoft’s latest quote put the stock at $372.97, up $20.04 from its last close. With a $2.777 trillion market cap in the same quote, that gain added roughly $149 billion in market value. That figure is about 9.4 times Microsoft’s $15.8 billion in free cash flow for its fiscal third quarter and about 4.7 times its $31.9 billion capital spend for the period.

Microsoft Sinks Under $390 With Nasdaq in Recovery

Microsoft Shares Fall as Investors Worry About AI Spend, Cloud Push

Microsoft shares struggled again Friday. The stock traded near $386.92, hitting an intraday low of $382.32, and put the company’s market value at about $2.88 trillion. Microsoft’s P/E ratio sat around 23, meaning the stock is priced for a lot of future growth. Any stumble in AI-related cloud revenue could weigh heavily. Microsoft’s decline stands out because it’s losing ground even as the rest of the market climbs. Shares closed down 1.77% at $390.34 on Thursday, while the S&P 500 gained 1.8% and the Nasdaq composite added 2.5%. Barron’s said Friday the stock has dropped for six sessions in a row, with worries over AI spending hitting big tech.

Microsoft shares rose in late trading Thursday after a report said the company is getting ready to announce new in-house AI models next week. One of the models is aimed at coding and is designed to boost usage of GitHub Copilot, the developer tool. Microsoft is looking to show that its AI push means more than just rising data-center costs.

Microsoft Stock Moves on Weekend; Bigger Wall Street Test Ahead

Microsoft $190 Billion AI Spend Losing Its Sting for Investors

Microsoft shares fell late Tuesday morning, down $2.96 to $415.61. That put the company’s market cap near $3.10 trillion. Investors have been concerned about Microsoft’s AI spending this year, but recent comments suggested those worries could be already priced in. Stock is down for the year so far. Microsoft is getting deeper into AI spending, raising fresh questions from investors about when that money will translate to profit and cash flow. CFO Amy Hood told investors the company plans to put about $190 billion into capital expenditures in 2026, with $25 billion of that set aside for higher component prices. Capital expenditure, or capex, covers outlays for things like data centers, chips, and servers.

Microsoft gets $2 billion lift from Ackman, Monday looms for AI trade

Microsoft is ending the week with Bill Ackman’s Pershing Square as a new investor. The hedge fund disclosed a $2.09 billion stake, putting fresh money into the software company during a week when most of big tech pulled back. Microsoft’s rising AI spending and new pressures on growth stocks from the bond market are both in focus for investors, making the filing important now. The 13F, a backward-looking report showing quarter-end U.S. equity holdings for big money managers, gets close attention if a major investor picks up a fresh position.

LinkedIn Layoffs 2026: Why Microsoft’s Job Cuts Hit Even as Revenue Grows

LinkedIn Layoffs 2026: Why Microsoft’s Job Cuts Hit Even as Revenue Grows

LinkedIn is set to lay off around 5% of its staff, adding to the tech industry’s persistent job cuts—even as the Microsoft-owned networking platform continues to expand. The news was expected to land with employees this day, according to two people with knowledge of the decision who spoke to Reuters. One of the sources pointed to a push to restructure teams around growth priorities, insisting there’s no stated agenda to swap employees for artificial intelligence, or AI. The cuts land just as Microsoft posts stronger numbers from LinkedIn—revenue climbed 12% for the quarter ended March 31, outpacing its constant-currency growth after stripping out currency swings. Parent Microsoft, for its part, booked $82.9 billion in revenue for the quarter.

Microsoft Stock Week Ahead: MSFT Faces a Fresh AI Test After Big Investor Cut

Microsoft Stock Week Ahead: MSFT Faces a Fresh AI Test After Big Investor Cut

This week, Microsoft Corp. faces a more pointed debate around its stock: is artificial intelligence still its strongest growth engine, or could it end up undermining the Office and Azure lines that helped build its market cap? The latest pressure comes from TCI Fund Management, which slashed its Microsoft stake from 10% of its portfolio at the end of 2025 to just 1% by March’s close. Sir Christopher Hohn, in a note to investors, pointed to uncertainty about Microsoft’s future edge as AI advances rapidly. MSFT’s been trailing the wider rally lately. On Friday, the stock slipped 1.34% to finish at $415.12, while both the Nasdaq and S&P 500 were setting fresh records to end last week.
