For example, take a look at Microsoft, textbook software stock. It\u2019s been pretty much straight down since its peak last July at $555. But it did jump 3.6% today. Did anything happen this weekend to justify today\u2019s rally?<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1kwbn3\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Nope. In fact, we got a negative piece this morning about how the private colossus OpenAI has been pushing business away from Microsoft and toward Amazon because its customers want to go there. Incredible given how close they were at one point, but it\u2019s right that Microsoft stock\u2019s been clobbered. They\u2019re not looking much like an AI\u2026 winner right now. No matter, it\u2019s enjoying its first romp in ages. Enjoy it.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<figure data-testid=\"article-figure-image\" class=\"yf-750ceo\">\n<div class=\"image-container yf-lglytj\" style=\"--max-height: 640px;\">\n<div class=\"image-wrapper yf-lglytj\" style=\"--aspect-ratio: 960 \/ 640; --img-max-width: 960px;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/IcxpU5outkNyq4sZ9uDuqQ--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTY0MA--\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/insidermonkey.com\/e594c84b43643f9264f217379beb7064\" alt=\"\" loading=\"eager\" height=\"640\" width=\"960\" class=\"yf-lglytj  loaded\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Image by Tawanda Razika from Pixabay<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) develops software, hardware, and cloud-based solutions.
