My biggest impressions from the article
Microsoft shares slid about 10% on Thursday following an earnings report that disappointed some investors, prompting the stock’s sharpest daily decline since March 2020.
Microsoft’s finance chief, Amy Hood, argued that the cloud result could have been higher if it had allocated more data center infrastructure to customers rather than prioritizing its in-house needs.
“If I had taken the GPUs that just came online in Q1 and Q2 in terms of GPUs and allocated them all to Azure, the KPI would have been over 40,” she said.
Analyst Ben Reitzes of Melius Research, with a buy rating on Microsoft stock, said during CNBC’s “Squawk on the Street” on Thursday that Microsoft should double down on data center construction.
“I think that there’s an execution issue here with Azure, where they need to literally stand up buildings a little faster,” he said.
LMAO, the analysts and C level execs are going to accelerate the fall of Micro$lop.
The reality is, and I say this with a heavy heart, that Crapple is ahead of everyone else in how to keep the money and stock prices moving in their favor. They ‘rent’ AI capabilities from OpenAI and Google and put their money where they always have, making new devices, some good developing and fucking over everyone in their walled garden. Microslop, on the other hand, has completely lost its north.
Full disclosure, I fucking hate Crapple almost as much as I hate Microslop, but they evidently know what they’re doing. How long they can keep their shit up is another conversation for another time.
