JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee maintained an "Overweight" rating on Microsoft with a $625 price target, according to a report cited by Zhitong Finance. In the note, Chatterjee said investors will be closely watching growth in Azure, commercial Microsoft 365 cloud, and Copilot. He added that the stock’s reaction may depend less on the quarterly results themselves and more on the company’s outlook, as investors want signs that cloud and artificial intelligence growth can be sustained.
Separately, Yorkville Ives analyst Dan Ives on Friday kept an "Outperform" rating on Microsoft and set a $615 price target. He also named Microsoft as one of his "top five tech names for 2027." Ives said earnings reports from hyperscale cloud companies including Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon could help calm a highly volatile market. Together, the two analyst views point to the same near-term focus: whether Microsoft can show durable momentum across its cloud and AI businesses.
