Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) is engaged in developing and marketing software, services, and hardware that deliver new opportunities, greater convenience, and enhanced value to people’s lives.

Financial Times reported on May 8 that Sir Christopher Hohn’s hedge fund, TCI, has divested almost all of its $8 billion stake in Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) amid concerns about the negative impact of artificial intelligence on its products.

One of the biggest and best-performing hedge funds in the world, TCI had owned a sizable chunk in the tech giant for much of the past decade, but reduced it from 10% of its portfolio at the end of 2025 to just 1% by the end of March.

Sir Christopher Hohn stated in the fund’s investor letter:

“We reduced our investment in Microsoft because the rapid progress in AI introduces uncertainty over Microsoft’s competitive position in the future. We are primarily concerned about Microsoft’s Office productivity software franchise, where AI could change established workflows and lead to the emergence of new productivity platforms, but we also see some risks in [cloud provider] Azure.”

The move comes despite Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) reporting strong results for its Q3 report on April 29, topping estimates in both revenue and earnings. The company expects the revenue for its Azure and other cloud services business to grow between 39% ​and 40% in constant currency in the fourth quarter.

While we acknowledge the risk and potential of MSFT as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and doing so within a shorter time frame.
