Microsoft rebounds after multi-day selloff on positive analyst commentary and AI momentum
Wedbush analyst Dan Ives predicted 'very strong' Q4 earnings for Microsoft driven by AI enterprise demand, per Benzinga. Morgan Stanley maintained an Overweight rating with a $650 price target, implying 38% upside, citing favorable software spending trends from their CIO Survey.

Analysis

This gain snaps a four-day losing streak that saw MSFT decline roughly 6% on data center cost concerns. The positive analyst commentary from two major firms appears to have provided a catalyst for buyers to step in at lower levels. While the Musk-OpenAI lawsuit heading to trial and Italian regulatory probe on Activision represent ongoing headwinds, neither appears to have materially impacted today's trading.
