NASDAQ:MSFT 14 April 2026 - 27 April 2026

U.S. equity markets showed mixed performance in recent sessions, with blue-chip stocks generally outperforming growth and tech shares. On June 22, the S&P 500 fell 0.48% and the Nasdaq dropped 1.41%, weighed down by declines in Alphabet, Meta, Amazon, and Microsoft, while the Dow gained 0.12%. Alphabet lost about 5.5%-6%, dragging the tech sector lower, but gains in Caterpillar and Visa helped the Dow. After-hours trading on June 22 saw little change in major index ETFs, with the Invesco QQQ Trust and SPDR S&P 500 ETF slipping slightly, while the Dow ETF edged up. Microsoft’s recent activity included a 20-year natural gas power deal with Chevron for a Texas data center, reflecting the growing importance of energy supply for AI infrastructure. Microsoft’s shares slipped despite Azure’s 40% growth. Caterpillar gained a direct role in Microsoft’s West Texas AI data-center project, benefiting from co-located power demand. SpaceX is set to join the Russell 1000 index with a strong growth allocation, and its stock has seen volatility, including a 5% drop after the Fed signaled a possible rate hike in 2026. Congressional filings revealed significant holdings in major tech companies by a lawmaker’s spouse. Microsoft shares have underperformed the broader market recently, and insider filings showed nearly $10 million in sales.

  • Netflix Stock Appears Undervalued After 42% Drop, Supported by Cash Flow and Earnings
    June 22, 2026, 9:40 PM EDT. Netflix shares closed at $72.89, down 41.9% over the past year despite gains earlier. A Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) analysis, which values stocks based on projected future cash flows discounted to present value, places Netflix's intrinsic value at $95.10 per share. This indicates the stock trades at a 23.4% discount, suggesting undervaluation. Netflix's strong free cash flow forecast, rising from $12 billion currently to $22.7 billion by 2030, supports this view. Investor sentiment wavers amid intense streaming competition and heavy content investment. The Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratio, linking stock price to current earnings, also provides valuation insights, but the DCF model highlights Netflix's potential value for long-term investors amid recent price weakness.
