Microsoft rebounds after multi-day selloff as analyst predicts strong Q4 earnings
Wedbush analyst Dan Ives predicted 'very strong' Q4 earnings for Microsoft and other Big Tech companies, citing significant AI enterprise demand and comparing the current environment to mid-1996's genuine adoption phase. BlackRock and Microsoft also reported raising $12.5 billion toward a $30 billion AI infrastructure fund, per Benzinga and Finnhub.

Analysis

Today's gain breaks a four-day losing streak that saw MSFT decline roughly 6% on data center cost concerns. The positive analyst commentary and AI infrastructure fund progress appear to be providing a counternarrative to last week's margin worries. However, the modest rebound (+1%) relative to the prior decline suggests investors remain cautious, and the stock only slightly outperformed its flat sector.
