Microsoft (MSFT) Heads Into Earnings With Strong AI Tailwinds, Analysts Say

Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) is a Must-Watch AI Stock on Wall Street. On October 28, Evercore ISI reiterated the stock as “Outperform” and said it's sticking with the stock heading into earnings on Wednesday.

"Capex growth should remain healthy and reflect tight capacity for AI infrastructure. Our sense is that Microsoft will note that capacity 'remains tight' and the company will continue to invest against AI demand signals."

On the previous day, Guggenheim upgraded the stock to “Buy” from Neutral ahead of earnings later this week. The firm believes that Microsoft is well-positioned for AI.

"We are upgrading the shares of MSFT to Buy from Neutral and introducing a Price Target of $586, representing 12% upside from current levels."
