What stands out

Megan Brantley of LikeFolio shows demand signals for Microsoft’s Azure cloud have accelerated since the prior quarter, even though MSFT’s share price is flat year over year. She highlights a gap between the company-level demand data her platform tracks and the stock’s muted Y/Y move, using that divergence to argue the AI/cloud narrative may still have room to run. The clip matters because it pairs hard consumer and enterprise demand reads with a puzzling stock-price disconnect.
