NASDAQ:ORCL 4 January 2026 - 17 January 2026

Microsoft shares closed at $379.40 on June 19, down 2.9% since June 12, underperforming both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, which posted weekly gains. The market is awaiting Micron’s earnings and new U.S. inflation data next week, which are expected to test the ongoing narrative around AI-related spending. AI-focused stocks in the U.S. entered the week after a broader market rebound, but chip makers and cloud infrastructure companies remain under pressure due to interest rates, high valuations, and concerns about spending. The Federal Reserve’s June 17 meeting is a key focus for traders. Schwab’s Trading Activity Index rose to 55.08 in May, with retail investors favoring tech stocks. Options trading volume increased 25.3% year over year, and there are signs of growing caution among investors. Oracle’s shares fell despite record quarterly results, as investors concentrated on the costs of AI data center expansion and new financing plans. Oracle reported 93% growth in cloud infrastructure and a $638 billion backlog, but questions remain about converting this backlog into revenue. On June 11, major U.S. indexes rebounded after a tech-driven drop, with chip stocks leading gains while Oracle and other software names lagged due to concerns about AI spending. In the UK, the FTSE 100 rose 0.6% on gains from HSBC, Standard Chartered, and Prudential. Earlier in June, Oracle’s stock slipped ahead of its earnings report as investors looked for evidence that its AI cloud backlog would translate into revenue. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq experienced notable declines the week ending June 6, breaking a long winning streak, while U.S. payrolls exceeded expectations, shifting attention to Federal Reserve policy.
