Finally! A US court has ruled that Microsoft $MSFT-0.1% can go ahead with its planned $69 billion acquisition of video game maker Activision Blizzard $ATVI+0.1%.
In case you were wondering why most stocks were green yesterday and $AAPL+0.5%, $MSFT-0.1%, $GOOG+0.8% and $AMZN+2.5% were down, here's why 👇
Cool thanks for the info :) i hope they keep going down and get to nice numbers for buying ;)
Shares of $GOOGL+0.7% are up over 30%+ for the year and shares of $MSFT-0.1% are up over 40%+ for the year.
I picked up$MSFT-0.1% pretty well at $235 and I'm still holding. I believe they will improve results with the help of AI, the inclusion of AI in Office and Windows will attract new customers. I didn't buy $GOOGL+0.7% and I'm glad I have money in $MSFT-0.1%, I like that one better.
Do you have your eye on any particular stocks but they are not at the prices you would like to buy them at and you are waiting for them to fall???
I'm waiting for a drop in a lot of stocks I'd like to buy at a better price like $PEP-0.3%, $META+2.3%, $JNJ-0.1%, $MSFT-0.1%, $WM-0.5% or maybe $ASML+0.1%.
I would definitely buy everything from the big tech sector at more attractive prices,
Have a nice evening Buliosians, I would be interested in your opinions, how do you see the future of these two - technological giants? Which of $MSFT-0.1% vs $GOOG+0.8% do you trust more in the future? For example, can Microsoft steal the #1 spot from Google in internet search with the help of their AI? Have your say in the comments!
I like Microsoft better, I like their diversification and incorporation of AI into Windows and MS Office. Personally I hope their acquisition of $ATVI+0.1% works out, that would give them a bigger share of the video game market.
AI! The most talked about topic in the investment world lately. We had a crazy tech rally during covid. When the pandemic ended, inflation and interest rates rose and the tech. mega rally was extinguished.
Now we have a new rally!
ChatGPT has left investors feeling exuberant. And a new rally is in full swing as all sorts of future AI opportunities are priced in.
That's why I've...

Nicely summed up and I'll join the Applaks here 😂 I also think they'll come up with something later when it's a blast
The 10 largest companies in the S&P 500:
1) Apple $AAPL+0.5% - 7.4%
2) Microsoft $MSFT-0.1% - 6.7%
3) Google $GOOG+0.8% - 3.8%
4) Amazon $AMZN+2.5% - 3.1%
5) NVDIA $NVDA+1.7% - 2.6%
6) Berkshire Hathaway $BRK-B+2.0% - 1.7%
7) Tesla $TSLA+3.9% - 1.7%
8) META $META+2.3% - 1.6%
9) Exxon Mobil $XOM+1.8% - 1.3%
10) United Health Group $UNH-0.3% - 1.3%
Leaving out the six. ...it makes me wonder how it's all based on tech companies... :)
Just two stocks make up 26% of the NASDAQ index and 14% of the S&P 500 index. Those two stocks are $MSFT-0.1% and $AAPL+0.5%.
This is not what a healthy market looks like.

Thanks for the update. It's good that these stocks are rising, however, since I also invest in ETFs, I don't know if I totally like it :)
Or how Jim Cramer ruined our enjoyment of the stock markets... Time to short? 😂
Jim Cramer pointed out the top 7 stocks he thinks are guaranteed winners for this year - Apple $AAPL+0.5%, Microsoft $MSFT-0.1%, Nvidia $NVDA+1.7%, Amazon $AMZN+2.5%, Facebook $META+2.3%, Tesla $TSLA+3.9%, Google $GOOGL+0.7%.

There are some good points and some that are a bit against. I don't see a lot of growth there right now either and I would have expected some sort of drop off. If we get to even lower levels than we were last year, that would be a bump. Still no blood flowing in the market yet...
The S&P 500 index is up 20% from the lows in October, so the index is technically in a bull market.
Shares of $AAPL+0.5% are up 1.5%, taking it to an all-time high of $183.86.
Shares of $MSFT-0.1% are also hitting a new all-time high.
How do you feel about the current market situation and what do you expect?
I would also like to know the answer to the question of what to expect from the market, but now it's an unreal goulash, it seems to me, the market does pretty much whatever it wants regardless of what's going on around it,
$MSFT-0.1% Market cap ($2.44 trillion) is slowly approaching $AAPL+0.5% Market cap ($2.79 trillion). Do you think Apple will maintain its dominance with the largest market cap, or will Microsoft replace it in the top spot? :)
As most here have written, even if $AAPL+0.5% is no longer on that first rung it probably won't matter. AAPL already has that name and that status awfully strong.
3 AI stocks that could beat Google $GOOG+0.8% and Microsoft $MSFT-0.1% in the long run 👇
C3.ai $AI+4.6%: Increasingly popular among institutional investors, but we'll have to wait a few years for real gains.
Palantir $PLTR+2.0%: Palantir is gaining significant market share in the AI market and its revenues are growing solidly. Despite its "meme" reputation :-)
Nvidia $NVDA+1.7%:...

Unfortunately I missed$NVDA+1.7% and I regret it... so at least I'm sticking with $PLTR+2.0% and hoping it's a bet on the right horse :)
We are finally seeing some decline in stocks like $MCD+0.1% $PEP-0.3% $PG-0.7% $KO-0.5% and $SBUX+1.1% has been added as well I think the decline is not over and so finally those new here will be able to buy into these good stocks for at least some first position to possibly dilute further.. :) It's just a shame that $MSFT-0.1% and $GOOG+0.8% haven't joined in yet... :)
I would like to buy$PEP-0.3% and $MSFT-0.1%. Of course, that would require the share price to go down by double digits.
Like gentlemen and ladies. Growths from the beginning of 2023... 🤑 Do you have any? 🥂
NVIDIA $NVDA+1.7%: +101%, Facebook $META+2.3%: +98%, AMD $AMD+4.9%: +57%, Tesla $TSLA+3.9%: +37%, Amazon $AMZN+2.5%: +35%, Google $GOOGL+0.7%: +35%, Apple $AAPL+0.5%: +33%, Microsoft $MSFT-0.1%: +31%, Nasdaq 100 $QQ+1.2%: +23%, S&P 500 $SPY+0.9%: +8%.
$GOOGL+0.7% between 87-90.6$ 13% of portfolio 😀
$AMZN+2.5% a bit too, and then etf VUAA from vanguard DCA
Congratulations to all shareholders of course, has anyone tried investing and betting on it turning out like this?
