I Bought Nebius Group After Dumping My Microsoft Shares
MSFT, NBIS
Published: February 21, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

Nebius Group N.V. offers a better pure-play for AI cloud exposure over the traditional hyper-scalers like Microsoft Azure and Amazon's AWS, and its Q4 2024 earnings results validate the bull case. We cover risks relating to pricing pressures and the competitive landscape, including Nebius' positioning relative to other neo-clouds like Groq and Cerebras. With revenue guidance implying top-line growth of between 4x to 6x in 2025, I would rather own fast-growing NBIS over Microsoft during this AI revolution, despite the uncertain profitability outlook.

Microsoft: Now Worth Buying After A Year Of Nothingness

Published: February 21, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

Microsoft stock is rated a Buy due to it being a wonderful company at a fair price. Steady EPS growth, driven by AI and cloud growth potential, can boost shares. Despite heavy CapEx spending impacting free cash flow in the short term, these investments are expected to benefit the company for many years. CapEx spending growth will slow down by Fiscal 2026, which will give a boost to free cash flow.

Why Microsoft Is The Best Positioned Hyperscaler In 2025
MSFT
Published: February 18, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Neutral

Microsoft's AI revenue has surpassed $13B annually, driven by Azure AI services and Microsoft 365 Copilot, despite the stock underperforming in the hyperscaler complex. However, its free cash flow declined 29% YoY due to increased capex for AI infrastructure, but I believe it to be temporary with easing supply constraints by the end of FY25 and capex slowing in FY26. Simultaneously, efficient AI models like DeepSeek's R1 should lead to faster enterprise adoption, translating to a higher compute demand and operational leverage, benefiting Microsoft's top and bottom lines.

For almost the entirety of Microsoft's existence, the company spent far more on R&D than CAPEX.

While Open AI is independent, it vicariously functions through Microsoft at this moment in time. Microsoft is more and more being associated with Open AI's ChatGPT.
