Microsoft (MSFT) shares, trading around $360 amid a 21% year-to-date decline through March 2026—the worst start since 2008—reflect trader unease over surging capital expenditures for AI data centers, projected at $37.5 billion quarterly, despite Q2 FY2026 results showing $81.3 billion revenue (up 17%) and Azure growth of 38% in constant currency. Microsoft Cloud revenue hit a record $51.5 billion, up 26%, but post-earnings selling pressured the stock on deceleration fears and a forward P/E near 23x. Analyst consensus price targets average $590, implying upside potential. Traders eye Q3 FY2026 earnings on April 28-29 for Azure momentum and AI monetization updates, a pivotal catalyst ahead of April highs or lows.
