Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT), the world’s largest software company, is a key player in the AI industry.

Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT)’s shares have gained 21% since Cramer’s October comments. All of these gains are due to a bullish run that kicked off in April and that has seen the stock gain 28% since then. The stock rose after Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT)’s March quarter revenue and earnings beat analyst estimates.

Here is what Cramer said about Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) in October 2024:

“Microsoft’s supposed to be hurt by weakening demand for its Copilot, with its Copilot being their AI assistant. I have no idea if there’s a real weakness here but there is chatter and that’s enough to send the stock down. That said, I think the bears need a lot more than chatter to keep it down.”
