Microsoft lacks sufficient immediate liquidity to cover annual obligations without relying on ongoing free cash flow generation.

like we were saying, Microsoft doesn't have enough money to pay its bills right now, which is like wild to say. Microsoft alone makes up about 4.2% of the entire stock, dude. That's crazy.
And they're they're literally out of cash for the year.
Moody's report last night indicated an eyepopping 2.8 trillion of offbalance sheet commitments uh for Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Oracle in the form of future releases. That's an eight-fold jump from 2023.
what percentage of the entire US stock market is Microsoft? Just Satya Nadella, Satya Nadella, good sir, how much is your company worth compared to the entire US stock market? Folks, the answer is 4.1 to 4.6%.
Represents about 7% of the entire S&P 500. About half of that internet bubble example, just one company.
You know who doesn't have lots of money? Microsoft. And now I know I'm bagging on a stock I have exposure to. My goodness. But that's what I do on this channel. I have a tendency of just speaking my mind, even if that's bad for the book.
But yeah, I've got exposure to Microsoft and I'm like, "Oh man, dude, this is getting a little tighter here. What's going I mean, look at this. I got $95.8 billion in bills, $76.8 billion of cash in short-term investments.
This number is smaller than this number. That is not good. Now, in fairness, they've got $14.4 billion of uh free cash flow. Sorry, was that in the quarter or the year? Let me look.
Free cash flow. Oh, that was for the year. Is it? No, it was for the quarter. Okay, good, good, good, good, good. Okay, that is plant property. Yeah. Yeah, it was for the quarter.
Okay, in fairness, these bills are due in a year and they do have 14.4 billion of free cash flow per quarter. So, that's good. But, you know, it's not the cleanest ship. They still technically right now do not have enough cash to pay all their bills this year.
So, they have to rely on free cash flow, which means it's less money that they can turn around and actually invest or use to pay down debt or buy back stocks. Something to think about.
