Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ: MSFT) has been one of the best-performing Magnificent Seven stocks in 2025. The stock increased over 23% in the three months ending June 10, which corresponds to a broader market move. This also takes into account the company’s April earnings report. The company beat on revenue and earnings and confirmed its full-year guidance.
That guidance included a commitment to maintain its spending on data centers. However, that spending proves the axiom that a company is different from a stock. Being a category leader in AI requires a commitment to spending.
