Microsoft Copilot Engagement Surges Alongside Broad Corporate Earnings Reports
Newsquawk ·
Microsoft reported that Copilot engagement accelerated sharply, with automated tasks nearly doubling since July, daily users rising nearly 50% quarter-on-quarter, and year-on-year growth exceeding five times. For the first quarter of fiscal 2027, Microsoft posted EPS of USD 4.92 on revenue of USD 92.3 billion, topping estimates. Alphabet recorded third-quarter EPS of USD 2.12 and revenue of USD 127.6 billion, missing expectations and causing shares to drop in after-hours trading. Meta offered 40 million Class A common shares and entered forward sale agreements with Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs. Additionally, Marvell was reported to be in talks to acquire Lumentum Holdings as various other major firms released their quarterly financial results.
AI 시장 분석
Microsoft reported better-than-expected earnings with Copilot usage and daily active users surging 50% quarter-over-quarter. In contrast, Alphabet plunged in after-hours trading after missing profit and revenue estimates and warning of near-term margin headwinds. Expanded AI-related capital expenditures and earnings differentiation among major big tech companies are increasing market-wide volatility.
상승 영향
- AI — Microsoft's Copilot daily active users surged about 50% quarter-over-quarter and over 5 times year-over-year, proving the accelerated commercialization of AI software.
- Semiconductors — Semiconductor demand remains solid as massive data center and infrastructure investments by big tech like Microsoft and Alphabet continue, with annual CapEx reaching $195B to $205B.
하락 영향
- Software — Concerns over slowing profitability among software and platform companies are growing due to Alphabet's earnings miss and weak guidance from Fortinet (FTNT) and ServiceNow (NOW).
DYAX 전담 분석
Microsoft's strong rise in Copilot engagement and expansion of 24 data centers across 5 continents prove robust demand in the AI software sector, acting as a tailwind for related hardware and cloud infrastructure companies. Alphabet's third-quarter earnings miss and margin pressure concerns highlight near-term cost burdens across big tech, but as the surge in AI search queries continues, long-term monetization transitions and changes in CapEx guidance must be closely monitored.
