Investor Daily l: Is Now the Time to Buy Oracle? Cloud Profits, & Risks

from Earn Your Leisure · host iHeartPodcasts

In this Market Mondays clip, Ian Dunlap and Troy Millings dive into Oracle’s latest stock pullback and tackle the burning question: Is now the right time to buy Oracle shares? The conversation breaks down everything investors need to know—including the timing of Oracle’s cloud profitability, the challenges of CAPEX spending, and the shift in market sentiment. Ian Dunlap emphasizes patience, advising investors to wait until Oracle dips closer to $160 before considering an entry point. He highlights how the overall market environment has shifted, urging viewers not to expect every tech company to produce Nvidia-like returns. Troy Millings adds depth by dissecting the nature of cloud profitability, noting that significant returns are often “future dated”—it took Amazon and Google years to generate meaningful profits in their cloud divisions. He draws comparisons to Microsoft’s Azure, explaining that Oracle is following a proven path, even as it faces margin pressure and intense scrutiny. The duo also unpacks Oracle’s position as the fourth-largest cloud provider in the U.S., the spike in credit default swaps, and the impact of negative sentiment as the company’s massive investments raise eyebrows. Troy discusses how Oracle’s evolution—from enterprise software to subscriptions, to AI, and now cloud services—shows resilience, but also warns that market and government connections (like those with Larry Ellison) play a significant role in Oracle’s prospects. For anyone trying to navigate the choppy waters of tech stocks, this analysis offers historical insight, practical entry strategies, and candid takes on where Oracle might be heading next. Don’t miss out if you’re watching cloud stocks or considering Oracle for your portfolio. *Chapters Include:* Oracle’s Stock Pullback: Buy Now or Wait?
