      Goldman Sachs named Microsoft its top AI pick after recent meetings with management in Europe and San Francisco, maintaining a Buy rating and including the stock on its Conviction List. The bank highlighted strategic AI decisions made over the past three years that it believes are now paying off as enterprises evaluate available AI platforms. Microsoft's early long-term capital spending provides greater flexibility for near-term investment, while balanced spending across proprietary applications and third-party customers has improved the quality of Copilot and Microsoft AI results. Goldman also noted that Microsoft has diversified capital spending between frontier customers and enterprises. All of the $51 billion increase in Q4 remaining performance obligations came from enterprises rather

      $Apple(AAPL)$  Apple's path toward a $5 trillion market cap lines up with a pretty striking trend in its annual profits. A chart covering the company's financial performance over the last two decades shows a remarkable expansion phase after the leadership change. Back in 2011, the year Tim Cook became CEO, Apple's profit structure looked completely different from what we see now. Since then, the company has steadily built up earnings, reaching $112.0 billion in annual profits by 2025. Analysts point to tight supply chain management, strong growth in recurring high-margin services, and consistent hardware refresh cycles as the main drivers behind that explosive profit growth over the past decade.

      $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ $Apple(AAPL)$ $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ It's almost funny how this reads like the Fed decided to cosplay two completely different regimes. In 2024, Powell cut rates by 50 bps right before a presidential election with core CPI still at 3.3%, a move that basically screamed liquidity first, questions later. In 2026, Waller turns around and hikes 25 bps into midterms with core CPI at 2.4%, as if to say they're tightening into disinflation and that's just how it is. Two cycles, same in

      $Broadcom(AVGO)$ I missed the full-port $Microsoft(MSFT)$  move. Told myself I won't repeat that mistake with a high quality, high conviction company. Full disclosure, my average is 370. It's 70% of my portfolio and conviction is very high. Not planning to get shaken out.

      $Microsoft(MSFT)$  I recently put $100K into the Vanguard 500 Index Fund, where MSFT is one of the top holdings. The performance so far has been strong enough that it is making me seriously think about early retirement. MSFT or a low-cost S&P 500 index fund like Vanguard’s seems like a reasonable long-term option, at least based on my own approach. Nothing is guaranteed in the stock market, but time and patience can make a big difference. Criticism from others should not really matter when you are taking steps to build a better retirement for yourself. Focusing on your own financial future and staying invested is the part that matters most.

      $Apple(AAPL)$ Classic Apple price action. I think we could be at 325-330 by Friday, or maybe early next week if the event hype carries it.
