Even after a 40% sell-off, Microsoft doesn’t appear to be at a “bargain” for an investor who values their peace. Many would disagree, but if we unravel the business’s current situation, Microsoft is at the intersection of massive capital spending and massive potential returns…the stock’s performance hinges on the outcome. What is Microsoft Spending Money On? The company is heavily focused on Agentic AI and custom hardware. Projects include: Agent 365 & Copilot, custom silicon (to lower reliance on Nvidia), Stargate Supercomputer…and more. These are costing them hundreds of billions over the coming years, essentially eating away at the company’s bottomline. Microsoft MISSED January 2026 earnings because of high spending, this will be the main focus again this quarter. In...
Intel ($INTC) Pre-earnings Analysis Intel was left for dead by investors for years after failing to keep up with where the semiconductor industry was headed. As rivals like TSMC and AMD pulled ahead, Intel lost market share, earnings power, and eventually major customers like Apple, turning what was once a dominant position into a long stretch of disappointment. You know it’s real when you have The White House on your side The Trump administration pushed a historic level of government support toward Intel last year, with roughly $10 billion in funding aimed at strengthening domestic semiconductor manufacturing. The scale of the investment signaled how critical Intel had become to U.S. supply chain security. Right now, TSMC is the world’s leading...
Tesla ($TSLA) Pre-earnings Analysis Tesla is suffering from an identity crises, pivoting from a world famous electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer to a company focused on AI and robotics. For investors, this means the company either has massive upside (if successful at its pivot), or it can crumble and fail. Is Tesla too Big to Fail? It’s hard to imagine a world without Tesla. The company’s cult like following the ambitious plans have certainly been influential. With revenue streaming spanning EVs, battery storage, solar, and AI, the company’s diversified enough to withstand changes, but investors should prepare themselves for uncertainty ahead as the company slashes production of its Model S and Model X vehicles and rededicates those factories to building their...
Ouster ($OUST). Robotics, Smart Infrastructure, Physical AI Ouster had a phenomenal year last year, rallying more than 600% as excitement around their products and industry grew, but valuation crashed by more than 50% coming into 2026, leaving us to wonder whether or not it’s still a good buy. The scenario that Ouster’s stock went thought is not exclusive to it. Many other stocks in the AI industry suffered a massive correction late last year and into this year, and the names with the higher Beta reading decreased the most. High Beta means the stock is more volatile than the overall market, tending to amplify both gains and losses…so when the market pulls back, these names often fall harder and faster;...
CoreWeave (CRWV) Analysis. Reversal, or Bull Trap? CoreWeave has become an infamous name among investors as the polarizing company evolves from a niche GPU provider into a hyperscale challenger. Hyperscalers like Meta, Amazon, Microsoft…etc. already offer services like AWS and Azure for cloud solutions. Rather than attacking the same field, they followed the same recipe, but applied it to artificial intelligence workloads. AI workloads, especially LLM training, need massive GPU clusters, specialized services, insane power density…etc. hyperscalers weren’t originally built for this, they have to retrofit, where as CoreWeave was build for AI workloads from day one, directly challenging the weaknesses of these hyperscalers. What’s Holding the Stock Down: CoreWeave’s infrastructure is optimized for Nvidia’s GPUs and they focus on...
