The stock is up 1.7%, at $286.11, in recent trading. It is up nearly 29% year to date, driving the company’s market cap to $2.1 trillion, trailing only Apple (AAPL) at $2.5 trillion.\nStreet consensus calls for Microsoft revenue of $44.1 billion and profits of $1.90 a share. Microsoft provides guidance for each of its three reporting segments; at the top of the projected range for each, revenues would be $44.5 billion.\nMicrosoft forecast June-quarter revenue from its Productivity and Business Processes segment (which includes Office) of $13.8 billion to $14.05 billion; for Intelligent Cloud (including Azure), $16.2 billion to $16.45 billion; and for More Personal Computing (including Windows and Xbox), $13.6 billion to $14 billion.\nFor the September quarter, the Street consensus calls for revenue of $42.5 billion and profits of $1.95 a share.\nWall Street’s software analysts have been busily surveying Microsoft’s partners and resellers for clues to the quarter, and they’re all finding reasons for optimism.\nCitigroup analyst Tyler Radke on Thursday repeated his Buy rating on Microsoft shares, jumping his target price to a Street-high $378 from $310, after a survey of IT resellers. His new target implies a 35% upside from Wednesday’s closing level. Radke expects a strong finish to the company’s fiscal year, driven by recovering IT budgets, reacceleration in Azure, and continued strength in personal computer sales. He writes that Microsoft remains his favorite pick in the megacap software sector, with “multiple levers” for double-digit growth.\nBofA Securities analyst Brad Sills likewise reiterates a Buy rating after a series of “channel checks,” while upping his target to $325 from $305. He thinks revenue could beat consensus by 2% to 3%, driven by strength in Azure and Office 365 demand. Sills believes Azure can continue to grow at better than 50%, following 59% growth in the March quarter. (He notes that the company gets a relatively easy comparison on Azure, with 47% growth in the year-earlier quarter.)\nKeyBanc analyst Michael Turits maintains his Overweight rating on Microsoft, while lifting his target to $330 from $305. His call is part of a broadly optimistic take on June quarter IT spending based on a reseller survey. He says respondents now see 5.6% growth in 2021 IT budgets, up from 4.6% in the first-quarter version of the same survey. Turits writes that the survey found Microsoft’s strategic importance is increasing. He also raised targets on Arista Networks (ANET), Commvault (CVLT), Fortinet (FTNT), Okta (OKTA), Oracle (ORCL), Palo Alto Networks (PANW), and Vonage Holdings (VG).","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":175355730,"gmtCreate":1627009009120,"gmtModify":1633768808618,"author":{"id":"3584446485123140","authorId":"3584446485123140","name":"BCZK","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9d6199fae3b36c5e59b08755ed44f07e","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3584446485123140","authorIdStr":"3584446485123140"},"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/175355730","repostId":1136017934,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1136017934","pubTimestamp":1627000834,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1136017934?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-23 08:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Microsoft Stock Hits New High as Street Raises Price Targets Ahead of Earnings","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1136017934","media":"Barrons","summary":"Amid growing signs of an acceleration of corporate IT spending, Wall Street analysts are ratcheting ","content":"<p>Amid growing signs of an acceleration of corporate IT spending, Wall Street analysts are ratcheting up expectations for Microsoft, which is due to report fiscal-fourth-quarter results on Tuesday.</p>\n<p>The bullish sentiment has driven Microsoft shares (ticker: MSFT) to a record high.
