Microsoft shares closed at $516.17 on September 25 after surging 3.66% on the launch of enhanced Copilot features, including natural-language coding tools and agentic capabilities aimed at enterprise users. This reinforced the company’s AI positioning, following fiscal 2026 revenue of $331.8 billion (up 18%) and Azure growth near 43% in the prior quarter, with management guiding continued mid-40s percentage expansion. Analysts have turned more constructive, with Stifel raising its price target to $575, while the stock trades at roughly 29 times trailing earnings—well below peaks earlier in the cycle—and sits within 6% of its October 2025 record. With the next earnings release not until late October, the week of September 28 lacks company-specific catalysts, leaving price action dependent on broader tech sentiment, Treasury yields, and any incremental AI-adoption signals.
