AI Debt Concerns: Recent chatter on X about Oracle Corporation (ORCL) has focused heavily on the company’s upcoming Q2 earnings report. Investors are grappling with the firm’s massive $111.6 billion debt load, tied largely to ambitious AI and cloud infrastructure investments. Many express unease over a reported $300 billion deal with a major AI player, questioning the sustainability of this financial strategy.
Stock Price Volatility: Discussions also highlight a dramatic 37% drop in ORCL stock to around $217, erasing much of the gains from earlier AI-driven optimism. Some on X see this dip as a potential opportunity, while others warn of deeper risks tied to customer concentration and rising costs. The mood remains tense as the December 10 earnings loom, with expectations of $1.64 EPS and $16.19 billion in revenue.
Cloud Growth Hopes: Despite the concerns, there’s a flicker of optimism on X about Oracle’s cloud momentum and strategic partnerships. A recent 2% bounce in stock price to near $205, spurred by positive analyst calls, has reignited some hope. Users are keenly awaiting clarity on AI migration and revenue projections in the earnings release.
