Microsoft (MSFT) shares surged nearly 14% during the week of April 13, 2026—the best weekly gain since 2015—closing Friday at $422.79 after opening Monday near $374, adding over $370 billion in market capitalization. This rally reflects a sharp reversal in trader sentiment, shifting from concerns over elevated AI capital expenditures to optimism around accelerating Azure cloud revenue and Copilot adoption, bolstered by bullish analyst upgrades like $641 price targets and "Outperform" reiterations citing timing mismatches in spending versus growth. Broader big-tech rebound and value buying amid a 30% pullback from the 52-week high of $555 amplified momentum. Traders now focus on the April 29 fiscal Q3 earnings, where consensus eyes 21% EPS growth to $16.50, testing sustained AI-driven fundamentals.
