$Microsoft(MSFT)$ Anyone calling for Satya Nadella's resignation today has completely forgotten what Microsoft looked like before 2014. Nadella took over a stagnant, bureaucratic company that had completely missed the smartphone revolution and whose stock price had been moving sideways for an entire decade. He didn't just rescue the company; he completely reinvented it.
Current market frustrations are driven by short-sighted traders demanding immediate multi-billion-dollar returns on AI investments. However, in the big tech ecosystem, if you show up late to a massive infrastructure shift—like the PC or cloud eras—you lose permanently. Nadella is investing aggressively because he learned from Microsoft's past mistakes with Windows. Firing him now over high capital expenditures (CapEx) would be like firing Steve Jobs right before the iPhone launch because R&D was getting too expensive.
