🥊MSFT🆚GOOGL🥊 I’m More 🐂-ish For MSFT😉
2 Major & Popular Tech Companies Microsoft & Alphabet Inc have finally released their earnings & the results were a relief for investors🥳🥳🥳 They lifted up the badly beaten Nasdaq (-1.98%) in post-market hours. 💻MSFT & GOOGL💻 Both Beat Estimates But I’m More 🐂-ish For MSFT😉 Read on to find out why❣️
⭐️ Earnings were $2.45 per share, beating Wall Street estimates of $2.23, up 10% from the same quarter last year🥳🥳
⭐️ Revenue rose 7% to $52.9 billion in the quarter ended March, inching past the average analyst estimate of $51.02 billion🥳
⭐️ The majority of MSFT’s sales still come from selling software & cloud computing services to customers, even though MSFT’s share price has has been mostly 🐂-ish from Nov 2022 due to its partnership with ChatGPT creator OpenAI & incorporating AI🤖 technology into its Bing search engine.
➡️ MSFT’s head of investor relations shared that 🤖 is still a relatively small part of MSFT’s total business, which tells us 🐯🐯🐯 that MSFT previous share price increases is sustained by investors’ optimism & 🤖-hype. However, the fact that MSFT’s stock price has been steadily climbing since Nov 22 (despite pull-backs) suggests that investors are somewhat 🐂-ish on MSFT & are willing to buy on dips📉 & hold💎🙌
👍 Cloud business Azure’s growth was 27% in the latest reported quarter beating analyst expectations for 26.6% growth🥳
👍 Overall revenue for the cloud unit (Azure & other services), was $22.1 billion, slightly above estimates of $21.85 billion🥳
👍 Windows business, which depends heavily on PC sales have sagged in recent quarters. The sales drop in the segment was less severe than expected, with MSFT reporting revenue of $13.3 billion beating analyst estimates of $12.19 billion🤗
👍 MSFT’s productivity segment (Office software & advertising sales for the LinkedIn social networking site), also beat analyst expectations with revenue of $17.5 billion versus estimates of $16.99 billion🥳
🐂🐂🐂 During post-market trading, MSFT shares hit above $300 at a point & closed at $298.86, 8.51% higher in post-market trading after earnings release despite reaching a low of $265.37 during the regular session.
$Alphabet(GOOGL)$
⭐️ Excluding items, earnings per share of $1.17, beating an average estimate of $1.07 per share🥳
⭐️ Revenue for the quarter ended March stood at $69.79 billion compared with estimates of $68.95 billion🥳
⭐️ Net profit was $15.05 billion for the quarter, compared with $16.44 billion a year earlier.
👌 Alphabet reported a slight dip in 1st-quarter ad sales from a year earlier to $54.55 billion, but still beat analyst estimates of $53.71 billion🤗
👎 It was the 3rd such decline for the company since it went public in 2004, but was a 2nd consecutive following a 4th-quarter ad sales drop of 3.6%.
👌Investors were pleased with the buyback plan as usual sending GOOGL shares as much as 4% higher in post-market trade before giving back some of the gains to trade up 1.69% & close at $105.59 after post-market trading.
🐻🐻🐻 Google Cloud remains behind its 2 most important competitors, AZURE & AWS, & its growth is slowing. Sales for the unit rose to 28% to $7.41 billion.
🐻🐻🐻 Advertisers, who contribute the majority of Alphabet's sales, have reduced their spending in response to a shift by consumers back to in-store shopping & marketers are experimenting more with new platforms like TikTok, which attracts a more youthful audience.
🐻🐻🐻 GOOGL has been scrambling to keep pace with MSFT in rolling out new 🤖 software that can generate long-form responses to queries & other prompts.
Regardless, I'm happy that both of my earlier stock picks are doing well🥳🥳🥳 &
