Microsoft (MSFT.US): Total revenue for the first fiscal quarter is expected to be between $89.85 billion and $90.95 billion. Capital expenditures for fiscal year 2027 are projected to grow year over year. After accounting for lease accounting adjustments, capital expenditures for fiscal year 2027 are expected to be $175 billion. Positive free cash flow is expected to be maintained in fiscal year 2027.

Deutsche Bank points out that as central banks in the US, Europe, and Japan are tightening policy simultaneously, the market may still be underpricing the eventual terminal rates. With oil prices remaining high, inflation may spill over into core inflation and wages. Moreover, financial conditions have not tightened in tandem, which could weaken the effect of rate hikes. Citing the experience of 2022, Deutsche Bank notes that the market then expected a total of around 200 basis points of Fed rate hikes in the first year, but the final figure exceeded 400 basis points, illustrating that the market often underestimates the terminal rate.
