Weiss’ Take on MSFT Stock

Microsoft Corporation (MSFT) has benefited from short covering recently, Weiss said. But many Wall Street banks that cover the tech giant continue to be worried about its growth and valuation, he noted.

“I think (MSFT stock has) gotten back to (the) excessive multiples that were in place at the end of last year,” the prominent investor asserted.

In spite of these issues, Weiss noted that he owns MSFT stock.
