Microsoft defended AI spending despite DeepSeek pressure
By: Schaeffer's Investment Research | January 30, 2025

• Microsoft Stock's Worst Day Since October

MSFT is down 6% to trade at $416.03 at last glance, pacing for its fourth daily loss in five and worst day since October, but a floor at $410 looks ready to contain this pullback. The tech giant beat top- and bottom-line estimates during its fiscal second quarter, but it also issued a dismal cloud growth outlook and defended increased spending on artificial intelligence (AI) despite DeepSeek pressure.

The equity attracted six price-target cuts in response, the worst from BMO to $500 from $510. The biggest loser on the Dow today, MSFT is also the second most-traded stock in the options pits with triple the intraday average volume. Most popular by far is the weekly 1/31 420-strike call, where positions are being opened.

And Microsoft is back in the picture for buying TikTok

It'll all be fine. And to be honest being a Chinese owned company, who in US will want to have that app on their phone? With the whole TikTok department of security concerns, you're now going to allow deep seek? Or will they have to be owned by a US company like TikTok?

I don't think their openai deal is worth as much as it used to be due to Deepseek and the other open source models coming out.

Microsoft Unveils CoreAI
By: TrendSpider | January 14, 2025

Key Takeaways:

• CoreAI Launch: Microsoft debuts CoreAI to drive AI advancements under Jay Parikh.
• Tool Integration: Enhances Azure, GitHub Copilot, and Visual Studio for developers.
• AI Leadership: Aims to lead AI innovation with customer-focused tools.

Microsoft Launches CoreAI Division to Advance AI Applications

On Monday, MSFT (Microsoft) CEO Satya Nadella announced the formation of CoreAI – Platform and Tools, a new engineering division aimed at redefining application development for the AI era. Led by Jay Parikh, formerly Vice President and Global Head of Engineering at Meta, the division consolidates teams from Microsoft’s Developer Division, AI Platform, and Office of the CTO. This initiative focuses on creating an integrated Copilot and AI stack that combines new UI/UX patterns, agent orchestration runtimes, and an observability layer for next-generation applications.

Nadella emphasized that technology’s rapid transformation will significantly redefine the application stack by 2025. “Thirty years of change is being compressed into three years,” he stated, highlighting the urgency and scale of innovation.

Strategic Goals and Integration

CoreAI aims to empower developers by tightly integrating with existing tools like Azure AI Foundry, GitHub Copilot, and Visual Studio Code, streamlining workflows and improving productivity. The division will also expand GitHub Copilot’s capabilities, creating a feedback loop between AI tools and development platforms.

Jay Parikh, working closely with Scott Guthrie (Cloud + AI) and other senior leaders, will drive the platform’s efficiency and performance. By unifying AI development efforts under the One Microsoft approach, the initiative reinforces Microsoft’s commitment to delivering innovative, customer-focused solutions, empowering both its first-party and third-party customers to be equipped to build and manage next-generation AI applications.

Microsoft (MSFT) Announces Layoffs After Lackluster 2024
By: Schaeffer's Investment Research | January 9, 2025

• MSFT underperformed the Nasdaq last year

• The stock shed 8.9% in the last six months

Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:MSFT) is eliminating jobs across departments, though the cuts will only affect 1% of employees. The tech giant said it's prioritizing high-performance talent after a lackluster 2024, with the stock rising only 12% compared to the Nasdaq Composite's (IXIC) gain of 29%. These layoffs are also modest against 2023, when the company let go of 10,000 workers.

MSFT shed 8.9% in the last six months, and kicked off January with a drop to its lowest level since late November. Resistance at the 40-day moving average has kept a tight lid on the shares, but a familiar floor at $410 looks ready keep any additional pullbacks in check.

In the options pits, Microsoft stock has been popular with call traders. This is per its 50-day call/put volume ratio of 2.10 over at the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Cboe Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX) that ranks higher than 95% of readings from the past year.

Options may be an attractive choice for those eyeing the security, per MSFT's Schaeffer's Volatility Index (SVI) of 20% that sits in the 20th percentile of its annual range. This means options traders now anticipate lower-than-usual volatility expectations.

Price target raise:

Stifel raised its price target on Microsoft shares to $515 from $475 with a buy rating, thefly.com reported.
According to the investment firm, after a rocky start to 2024 the enterprise software sector is closing the year on a stronger note.
The analyst attributed the improvement to multiple factors like modestly accelerating revenue growth, attractive midyear valuation multiples, early signs of AI monetization, declining interest rates, solid economic performance, and Microsoft’s "safe haven" status following the election, given its minimal exposure to tariffs or China-related risks.
Looking to 2025, Stifel expects management teams to adopt a more conservative approach in their Q1 guidance. But the firm expects MSFT's overall revenue growth rates to at least match those observed in the latter half of 2024.

UBS also raised its Microsoft price target, to $525 from $500, and affimed a buy rating.
The firm highlights that Azure's growth acceleration is likely to be more back-end loaded as new capacity becomes available in the second half of the year, according to a research note.
Although the CEO's reference to an "AI winter" is unsettling, UBS remains confident of Microsoft's position at the top tier of the customer and workload spectrum.

What everyone’s thoughts on the vote for Microsoft to not invest into Bitcoin?

Just curious

Microsoft’s biz dev boss on the big bets that could define the future of AI

For Microsoft head of business development, strategy and ventures Christopher Young, identifying the company’s next big thing is the name of the game. And at Fortune’s Brainstorm AI conference in San Francisco on Monday, Young walked through some of the biggest AI opportunities he sees on the horizon, from robotics to healthcare to data center sustainability.
Embodied AI — basically, AI that is integrated into the physical world — is one important category on Young’s radar. Self-driving vehicles, for example, will be big for Microsoft, he explained — but not necessarily vehicles that transport people. It will be “a lot more about transportation of goods and services around,” he said, like long-haul trucking: “Just think about all the vehicles that operate in small warehouse contexts or even a shipyard.”
Young also highlighted the potential of humanoid robotics, citing Microsoft’s investment in companies like Figure (which is also a partner with Microsoft, in a collaboration that gives Figure access to Microsoft’s AI infrastructure and services). “It’ll be quite commonplace, particularly in categories of work where it’s very dangerous for people,” he said, citing work on offshore oil rigs, or oil drilling in Antarctica. “There are going to be a lot of different opportunities to bring new types of embodied technology into those kinds of categories,” Young said.
Sustainability is another area that Young predicted will be a big trend for Microsoft in 2025, particularly when it comes to delivering more efficiency for the data centers the company is building — including the cooling necessary to make sure infrastructure does not overheat, as well as making data centers more water-efficient. “We have a series of different methods we’re employing in our data centers, some of them we’ve been doing for a while, others are new,” he said. “We continue to work with our partners, like Nvidia, AMD, even the in-house silicon we’re building at Microsoft.”
As far as venture investments, there are a couple of key categories that Young thinks are important examples of where Microsoft is looking for AI growth. AI infrastructure is one where Microsoft “is making a lot of bets,” he said, including cybersecurity. Microsoft has invested in a company called Hidden Layer, which focuses on protecting AI models against being manipulated by third-party actors. Another is the need for data governance and compliance: “As we bring more AI capabilities into organizations, those AI agents, the copilots, are going to want to access information. You need better governance, you need identity capabilities.” Microsoft has invested in a number of companies in this space, he explained, including Reliance AI.
Lastly, Young cited the healthcare space as an exciting one for investment in AI – noting that Microsoft is investing in companies that use generative AI to look for natural remedies for certain ailments, like eczema, as well as using AI to assist pathologists and radiologists in cancer screening.
