MSFT

wtf MSFT. I sold my Jan $500 calls on Thursday for even

ElkQuiet1541

today seems software day... Adobe?, MSFT?

Mrsir300

Agreed, earnings kicked off a few big jumps like MSFT but others like NOW have been a slow crawl up. I started opening leaps a couple months back on CRM, NOW, and ADOBE that are doing really well

MSFT green so MU is real dump

Commercial_Seat_3704

Yeah I think Zuck is just going to copy the MSFT playbook and say they will be fcf positive going forward. He hates falling behind the other guys.

MSFT 500 this Week isnt a Meme

Balls deep in MSFT

Creamed_Dreamer

Lmao I wouldve bought and sold MSFT 460s expiring today, last week for a 30% profit when I couldve made 1000% good times

Happy-Champion1661

straddles/strangles on everything, this earning season is not about direction but volatility. Look at AMZN AAPL and MSFT, huge moves way bigger than implied probably best to play cheap IV names

Moepenmoes

MSFT is literally free money

EnginrA

MSFT hasn’t stopped chadding since earnings think we see $500 soon

need20goodmen

All you regards have to do is look at Mag 7 minus Tesla. Whichever stock has a shitty sentiment buy it. Its that simple. Google tanks because of high capex? BUY. People making fun of MSFT bagholders? BUY AMZN subreddit freaking out? BUY Zuck doing stupid shit again? BUY Imagine betting against these companies, you’re worse than Burry

Necessary_Ad_9800

What if MSFT goes back below 400 lmao

Wide-Contribution-29

I hate to ask this but what’s the next… MSFT? You know the obviously oversold stock that’s just coiled back to spring… 

dicktoronto

This is the most wild post I’ve seen on here in a long time. You do realize that a ridiculous percentage of software development has moved to Mac with the rise of agentic software development, and you can run almost frontier-level models locally now on a MacBook Pro. It’s quite difficult to get some Mac models because of demand and RAM shortages, and they’ve made more money because of AI, without investing a significant sum into it, than companies like MSFT and other competitors dumping trillions into AI…

basically every company deals with depreciation, \*yawn\*. Amazon didn’t need FCF when it was becoming one of the biggest companies on earth, & it doesn’t now. When Andy Jassy says the buildout is guaranteed money, I believe him over you. Seems to be working for MSFT

Some of my current favs: CELH, AMD, MSFT, SOFI, EME, AMZN

They won’t . More likely open ai will go out of business or MSFT or some other hyper scale will absorb it for pennies the dollar

Feelings on buying shares or leaps? I have leaps on TSM, GOOG, AMZN. I have shares of MSFT

Currently have GOOG MSFT AMZN NVDA SNDK CRWV INTC NBIS up 110% ytd what am I missing

Gorgenapper

What happens if you have enough VOO that it adds up to 1 MSFT?

Affectionate-Tart891

Depends on the stock, for instance 1 of MSFT is already too much

RevolutionaryPhoto24

Taking assignment on IREN puts at an overall cost-basis at spot, pretty much. Could’ve been worse. (Will probably hold the shares and write against remaining uncovered MSFT to build back liquidity.) Trawl for cheap LEAPS if VIX remains low and manage what must be managed. (No time this week for SPX.)

I have a put contract on MSFT, seems like that is fucked

MSFT probably will continue to pump, clear it was way oversold

so glad I held AMZN MSFT and GOOG

You forgot the part where both MSFT and AMZN made money.

crouching_dragon_420

At this pathetic revenue growth rate DIS is still expensive. While MSFT grow like 15+% rev YoY this thing is at like 3-5%. Why buy this when META, MSFT, AMZN are all cheaper?

I’ll ride during earnings

GuwopGOAT

I only need to see if what color MSFT is to know whether we pump or not

JefeDiez

Thankfully meta gave the 9-day warning sign and I sold out of some. I held MSFT! So still very flat this year. Ugh

As long as the reports are staggered we will be okay. Like if we had META or MSFT instead on META and MSFT. Still plenty of gambling to be had.

MSFT + NVDA naked calls to the balls

Accurate-Exchange298

Thank you for your input. Much appreciated . To your comment about - 'You dont have to react each week to a price swing to shave a coupe bucks.' .. As a rule, if a stock I am trading falls enough that the option can be bought back for a 40-50% profit, I buy back the call and sell a new expiry date call. The reason is that if the stock keeps falling, the next roll might not give enough premium to shield against additional drops or might have to be written further out in time than i would like. This trade was a regime where the entire AI trade was being questioned by the markets(ROI on capex by hyperscalers , earnings of AAPL. AMZN, MSFT, META etc, drop in semi conductor stock prices etc) and so I rolled more frequently than I normally do to keep in step with the stock price drop. If you see the % change in the option price on the dates I rolled, some were below my 40% rule , but in the absence of clarity on the AI trade environment, I wanted to be a little more cautious. https://preview.redd.it/9gy06if2i0hh1.png?width=335&format=png&auto=webp&s=3d3e475d0fa70975048077ad899cd4fbd7e4e6fa

You see, former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer owns the LA Clippers, which means a MSFT + LAC merger is imminent. /taps forehead

LuvSicPt5

100% bro \- Biggest winners this week were MSFT and AMZ, the ones renting computing resources, exactly the same shit SPCX is doing \- WSB is bearish AF \- Stock already punished a lot That’s all the DD I need

LuvSicPt5

Last time i listened to you regards i sold my MSFT calls before earning. Full porting SPCX this week.

TranzitBusRouteB

I mean buying MSFT isn’t crazy, it’s still at a decent valuation, just had a great earnings, even if it falls a bit it’s not like the post earnings pump is gonna immediately reverse

Kickboy21

Sold MSFT at $425 and missed out on 44k by selling one day early

Rain_In_Your_Heart

It's a lot more than just MSFT too.

Oly_Champ_16

I did 6k selling MSFT, MU and BE puts last week, although I have 98k in stocks.

Microsoft in the 1980’s was growing at 60%+. The difference between a 15% and 60% growth is 20x over 10 years. You’re basically evaluating MSFT at 15% in the 1980’s and say that’s it overvalued.

Full_Pear449

Level 3 assets are hard-to-value financial holdings that rely on unobservable inputs and internal pricing models because active public markets do not exist for them. For high-tech firms, these typically include private equity investments, proprietary startup shares, and complex contingent consideration or embedded derivatives from recent mergers and acquisitions. Notice one thing: Orcl is siitng around 200BP's they are a horse of a differnet color because of Paramount. META -80bps's, NVDA high 70's, GOOGL high 60's, AMZN low 60's and MSFT mid 60's . Tyupically High tech firms run between 40-60bps. so these numbers are not that scarrrrrrrry

PenguinOfB00m

Friday rally was actually a trim for core hardware AI stocks, establishing a overhead resistance roughly 3% lower by end of day. Most of that rotated into MSFT and AMZN of course, but still that implies that there's very little more liquidity in the market, possibly mostly coming from end of month rebalance. That on itself is not a bearish signal, but a sign that the short term trend is still unresolved. Imo it's a flat monday at best.

cyphr0n

If you assume GOOGL, NVDA, and MSFT to grow at 15% all of those stocks will be worth less as well. Garbage in, garbage out.

Informal-Lime6396

MSFT and META are good companies (subjective, but they are huge) that are down from ATH. According to your methology, when would be a good time to buy?

GlokzDNB

My biggest tip is patience, avoiding crowds, the fact your stocks have new ath doesn't mean it's your money yet, diversification is byproduct of finding good businesses under their value over time rather than starting with 10-20 companies within first year. You shouldn't have 100 ideas, all you need to haveis 1 or 2 stocks that trade under their value and only buy that. If you have great stocks like MSFT and you're not buying it if it trades at 18 forward p/e when sp500 hits ATH but you chase stocks that grow 100% a month on leverage and hype, you're going to miss out great entry of long term compounding stock. So the process of finding these stocks is most complicated, like if I told you servicenow or SoFi are now In buy territory - there are real risks associated with this trade. Can it go lower ? Yes. But if you keep your patience enter it now, buy on dips and keep positions about 1-2% of your portfolio - you can make money if they deliver results and market will reprice it's multiple up. So that's two sides of it - finding best stocks beaten up (maybe meta in couple weeks) and building larger position, and finding smaller but still quite decent quality stocks (SoFi,now) and buying the risk for short term multiple rerating

DrScitt

I keep adding more. MSFT is a good bet.

donniedarko1010

What do you think now about META? and MSFT at this price, though it has run up, but it's still a bit from it's ATH.

GlokzDNB

There will always be part of population which can't stand waiting 10,20 or 30 years for compounding. That's the harsh truth, if you want to build generational wealth the money need 3 decades of compounding and the amount of increase between 30 and 40 years is even more these people could get with trading in their dreams. But for long term investors there's also chance to get 20% over 10 instead 10%. Buffet had checked these two things - getting 20% average over maaany decades. He started at 11 but most of his wealth was created after he was 80. Im on my way, started in perfect time of a small bear market, thanks to good stock selection and understanding fundamentals, took some risks and im at +100% on GOOG just within one year, +100% on panw in just few months. And have more of these. I think avoiding crowds and still selecting quality stocks that market doesnt like (MSFT for 350 was hated stock, but for 460 now is glorified) we can be little bit like buffet. But it takes courage and taking risks. Some will result in a loss, that's fine but we don't need to invest in stocks that go parabolic. I think investing is very hard, harder than trading because you're constantly bombarded with news, you're constantly pushed towards trading and speculating. While investing is boring and needs to be so, good stocks can do shit for months or years and then go parabolic for few weeks. Good luck everyone, I'm trying hard to keep my 30% CAGR with twr, beating nasdaq, staying sane on the road.

GuwopGOAT

This is just like buying a battle pass, why does nobody get mad when Sony or MSFT do it?

Sick0h

The only thing you need to know is that MSFT and AMZN each rallied 15% in a single fucking day. The market couldn’t give a more obvious sign of being risk on than tattooing it to your pupils.

peterpeer9

I turned $10 into $743,000 in just 12 months using my trading bot I co-developed with Claude. Stocks only, no options, major tickers only with high-liquidity, it makes about 2-3 days every session. My biggest draw down was losing $48,000 in a single day (MSFT) and my biggest one-day win so far is $73,000. I've successfully turned this into a popular twitter persona that now has 5,500 followers and 129 subscribers earning me about $13k/mo, passively, with basically just a few hours every month documenting my trades and posting reviews. I also lie on the internet, but Claude doesn't help me with that.

I’m buying saas like no tomorrow. Already up on TEAM and MSFT Next is ORCL and UBER

AgitatorSupreme

I cant fucking believe i got shafted yet again with MSFT.  I had a nice return of $4500, same situation as OP a few quarters back and since then no matter what position I took with MSFT it got shat on.  This time the rally happened and I got shafted because I FORGOT to buy in.  

Yogurt_Up_My_Nose

cash gang makes sense when it's a small amount of your gambling port. but man, if you missed out on the MSFT / GOOG / AMZN run in your primary account. that's fucked.

RetroSalad_

Yeah sold a few MSFT & AMZN yesterday. Have been rugged pull a lot of times this year

MrAccountant67

What do we think MSFT does this week

Mrsir300

When did he start his software short because SAAS is beat to fucking shit - it only just started recovering a bit the past month or so. If he started a little while back he’d still be deep green on some of those shorts like MSFT, SNOW, ADBE, CRM. All still down overall from highs

Etherius

AMZN and MSFT and GOOG are already profitable on AI Meta is close The question is “is Anthropic profitable?” And we won’t know that until we see their operating margins in October

CryptoBoy-007

I'm not suggesting anything, only stating a corporate reality. No company executive in the S&P500 / EU/ UK will take a decision to authorise the use of a Chinese AI. Why do you think ChatGPT, Gemini , Anthropic and MSFT are developing their cyber security tools? The next phase in this development is exploite the systematic weakness these AI vibe coding is generating.

PaperHandsTheDip

MSFT & AMZN are both reaching profitability, and anthropic is expected to have its first profitable quarter this quarter. The "nobody is making money" is no longer true...

Ok_Cry7572

YTD returns: AMZN +19.9% AAPL +14.0% GOOGL +13.0% NVDA +6.3% MSFT -1.7% META -14.4% TSLA -28.9%

JefeDiez

I agree with this. Democrats will try and have some of the AI profits go 'to the people' which to a degree is fair if it totally blows up. The companies should be taxed more- the tax picture if nothing else will LARGELY change. I also don't think every company is being valued as if it this is creating a winning bottom line in 5 years. Meta is a great example. They're going to have to show it first. One revenue stream with a successful ads business and some 'great ideas' on how to monetize AI isn't near enough anymore. You are seeing a lot of trepidation in nearly every hyperscaler now. MSFT appears to be potentially starting a new bull run along with AMZN but their earnings reports were pretty stellar- they're using AI positively.

Recent-Animator6941

My puts gonna print !! Glad that I got out from my MSFT trade at USD450. This shit stock heading back to USD350 now

Can Microsoft ever get a break? Yahoo Finance: Microsoft (MSFT) Faces Consumer Probes Over Microsoft 365 And Copilot Changes.

PYPL, Adobe, MSFT are all up 😂

No_Distance_4905

How big of an issue do you think it would be for Goog, Amzn and MSFT? Is it really that big issue of having an excess capacity? At worst they will be selling it without margin. But these companies still have very strong core business. I wonder how much of all this is priced in already. Maybe it is and if the AI is really that good and returns happen this is not priced in. Or maybe it's somewhere in the middle and the stocks will jump around 🤣.

HystericalSail

As did MSFT, before the run-up on Friday. Still, in the low 120s, and P/E of around 20 as you say, it may be worth an initial tranche.

No_District_2371

MSFT entered the chat

No_Distance_4905

That's a good point, so all these headlines Google, Amzn, MSFT, Nvidia about latest round is basically propping their own paper gains. It will be interesting to see what happens. It's either AGI and huge productivity gains or years of financial ruins.

Str8rDay

Oh man you memory freaks come out of the woodwork to ruthlessly defend your portfolios. Momentum trades have not been this bad since 2020 and 2008 (critical dates). This is readily available to fact check in TradingView. You can focus on the fundamentals all you want. They do make a lot of money. Maybe they will make even more money in the future. But you’ve also got to look at the technicals and right now SNDK is down 50%. MU is down 30%. Quote Amy hood all you want. Share NAND prices rising like crazy. None of that matters if the share prices are falling. SNDK dropped 5% on Friday while the Q’s rose 0.65%. Are you just gonna buy the dip forever? Finally, he isn’t spreading misinformation. Quit using buzzwords. MSFT did not raise their previously issued FY26 CAPEX guidance. They *may* increase it FY27 going forward. Getting all emotional and defensive with stocks is how you get taken advantage of by the institutions.

Ok-Age5784

The thing is co pilot might not be the best AI for coding but it’s the “best” AI to cooperate non-tech. Proprietary data kept in house and it integrates with all the office software that corps run off. It’s the “best” to the people making purchasing decisions in those companies and will remain so aslong as it is within 10-20% functionality wise to the top AI models. MSFT enterprise moat paying off

95Daphne

The slowdown/reversal is going to be priced before it actually happens. And honestly, the cues are there that it's happening, and you're just biased and not seeing them. I mean, the whole reason for the MSFT pop was because they announced they're going to be cash flow positive and are not increasing CAPEX any further. I do not expect for the SOXX to top its June highs for a while. The damage has been too severe.

Extension_Diet4064

If the explicit goal is weighting heavier into mega-caps without picking single stocks, VUG does that. Just be clear on the look-through overlap. In an 80/20 VOO/VUG setup, your top 5 holdings (NVDA, MSFT, AAPL, AMZN, GOOGL) make up over 27% of your portfolio. If tech multiples contract, that tilt doesn't protect you from drawdown depth compared to a simple core holding.

option-trader

Yep, it's clearly a shakeout of the weak hands. Fundamentals actually look stronger after seeing SKHY post profits on par with MSFT, GOOG, and AAPL. It posted Q2 operating profits of $41.5 B compared to $40.6B, $40.77B, and $35.69B for the other three, respectively. Then we saw STX with blowout numbers telling us the memory play here is intact. WDC and SNDK will report on Wednesday after the market closes, and I expect more blowout numbers. WDC is at $550, and it'll be above $700 by year end. I expect SNDK to be above $2500 by year end. SNDK is going to report EPS above $35 and then guide FY27 to $225-$250. At $2500, that's a p/e of 10 making it reasonable at least until FY28 can be more visible.

Aggravating-Big3858

Thanks for sharing ... not here to hate on this fairly sensible strategy. I've essentially been 100% SPY for 25 years, and now that base is big enough that picking stocks and trying to outperform is relatively pointless. Of course I'd love to find the next MU and ride to the moon, but we all know that ain't happening. Buying MSFT or GOOG on a dip is basically just buying the SPY, so unless I start day trading biotech penny stocks I'm SOL

Emilio___Molestevez

retards in here are fucking **STILL** going on about an AI bubble after $GOOG $MSFT $AMZN earnings is the most bullish thing I've ever seen

Unusual_Statement_64

I’m too cowardly to put too much of my portfolio, but did some similar trades. Made 70% on UNH myself, but closer to 5% of overall holdings. Bought in August last year with the buffet news, and had a few scares With it dropping even further with some 10%+ drops. Held on and up 70% for a one hear return is pretty awesome. Bought a small amount of MSFT as well and up 25% on that over 2 months. Will probably take those gains here soon and back to index.

SanDisk_Made_Me_Rich

I'm going to be honest with you all and this an uncomfortable reality you may need to accept: Judging by the memory & storage shortage & high prices we see today, expect to see high prices & a shortage of sex robots in 2030+ That may mean some of you may need to share a sex robot just like technically you're sharing a woman with other men when you hire an escort. And I'm going to take a page out of $MSFT, $AMZN, $GOOG playbook and amass as many sex robots as I can and then rent them out. I'll be a sex robot pimp 🕴

Ok-Personality-6630

doing all the above after 1 year. Thanks to many bits of advice etc people post here and other subs. Buying in times of fear for undervalued companies. Recent examples; EasyJet MSFT Google

SanDisk_Made_Me_Rich

These companies are not stupid $AMZN, $MSFT, and $GOOG. They’re spending even more money because it’s incredibly profitable to increase capacity Look, if you were running a business that was capacity constrained and had really high margins, you would beg, borrow and steal to expand that business.

notreallydeep
