A Double Top in MSFT has just appeared.The weekly chart of Microsoft (MSFT) is showing a potential Double Top formation, a classic sign that bullish momentum might be losing strength . 🔹 Bullish Scenario: As long as the price stays above the blue neckline , the uptrend remains intact. Buyers are still in control, and a clear breakout above the recent highs could trigger a move into new all-time highs. 🔹 Bearish Scenario: If the price breaks below the neckline , it could confirm the Double Top setup and open the door for short opportunities. NASDAQ:MSFT is standing at a critical decision point, will the stock continue its strong rally, or is this the first sign of exhaustion before a larger pullback? 💬 What do you think, are we about to see another breakout, or is the beginning of a deeper correction?

Microsoft (NASDAQ: $MSFT) Drops as AI Sales Miss Targets Microsoft (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:MSFT ) slid more than 2% after a report from The Information claimed that the company had reduced growth targets for its AI products because sales teams failed to meet expectations. The report highlighted that several Azure sales units missed ambitious quotas tied to Foundry—Microsoft’s enterprise AI platform used to build and manage autonomous AI agents. According to the report, less than 20% of salespeople in one U.S. Azure division hit the 50% Foundry growth target, while another team initially faced a quota requiring them to double sales. Microsoft quickly refuted the claims, stating that The Information conflated growth projections with internal quotas. The company emphasized that “aggregate sales quotas for AI products have not been lowered,” reaffirming the strength and ambition of its broader AI roadmap. Despite the clarification, the stock reacted sharply, reflecting heightened sensitivity around AI monetization as enterprise adoption continues to lag expectations. Although AI is transforming workflows and offering automation opportunities, the adoption curve for enterprise-scale AI agents remains slower compared to consumer AI breakthroughs. Competitors including Google, Amazon, Anthropic, Salesforce, and OpenAI all face similar challenges as traditional organizations navigate data integration, reliability issues, and operational risk. Technical Outlook From the chart, MSFT has pulled back sharply from its $555 resistance zone and is now retesting a key support level around $465. This area aligns with previous structure and may act as short-term demand. A breakdown below $465 opens room for a deeper decline toward the $450 level. However, holding this support could trigger a rebound back toward the $555 region. Momentum remains neutral-bearish, with price sitting below the recent swing highs.

MSFT LongBroader Market Structure MSFT on the 15-minute chart is in a short-term uptrend following a sequence of higher lows and higher highs from the $464 area. The key structural shift occurred when price printed a CHoCH at $492.44, breaking above the previous swing high and confirming bullish intent. Before that, the market had transitioned from lower lows into a clear higher-low structure, signaling accumulation before expansion. The recent drop from the $492–$494 supply is corrective, not impulsive, which suggests we’re seeing a pullback rather than a reversal unless demand fails. Supply & Demand Zones The upper supply around $492–$494 has shown clear weakness for buyers; price rejected immediately with strong momentum and multiple wicks showing absorption and aggressive selling. Higher up, the major supply at $504–$507 remains a strong distribution zone where price previously dropped sharply, indicating institutional control. On the demand side, the closest zone at $478–$475 is fresh and unmitigated; buyers stepped in with strength from that area earlier, producing a decisive rally and ultimately the CHoCH. A deeper demand below $470–$466 is even more important because it initiated the entire trend shift and contains protected lows. Price Action in the Marked Region Price is currently declining from supply and pushing toward the green demand region. The move down is controlled rather than impulsive, indicating sell-side momentum is fading as it approaches prior buyer interest. The marked projection makes sense: a dip into $478–$475 would allow liquidity collection before a bounce toward the $488–$492 supply above. If demand holds, expect responsive buying with a clean bullish engulfing candle or long-wick rejection. Trade Bias, Direction & Invalidation The bias for now is bullish, looking for a pullback to demand and continuation upward. The expected direction is a retest of $478–$475 followed by a rally toward $488–$492. A key invalidation level is a clean 15-minute close below $475—if that level breaks, sellers likely target the deeper $470–$466 demand, and the bullish thesis weakens significantly. Momentum & Candle Behavior Momentum currently favors sellers in the short term, but the drop is stepping rather than impulsive, suggesting exhaustion into demand. Look for a shift in candle behavior—such as a bullish engulfing bar, absorption wick, or displacement candle—to confirm buyer strength returning.

Microsoft: Target Zone Hit!Microsoft has reached our green Long Target Zone between $451.84 and $477.87 as anticipated. In the meantime, the stock has successfully completed the magenta wave (4) and has since broken out of the Target Zone to the upside. We now expect further gains as wave (5) unfolds, targeting a move above the resistance at $562.17, where the larger blue wave (I) is expected to conclude. After that, we anticipate a pronounced correction phase. However, there remains a 38% chance that MSFT could break down through the Target Zone and fall below the support at $392.97. In this case, we would reclassify the last significant high at $562.17 as the top of the beige wave alt.III and prepare for a new low in wave alt.IV .

MSFT: Next Long Term Buy ZoneMicrosoft has staged a strong rally since the April tariff-related selloff, rebounding significantly but ultimately failing to set a new meaningful high in October. While the company’s earnings have remained relatively strong, it is still a publicly traded stock and therefore susceptible to broader market conditions that could trigger a pullback. After my analysis on META identified a strong trade/buy zone around $600 and below, I’ve noticed a very similar setup forming on Microsoft, one that could present an excellent buying opportunity if a deeper drop materializes. From a purely technical standpoint, using volume-based tools, I see several reasons to be prepared for a potentially larger pullback in this stock. To start, I’ve marked two major zones to outline the volume-price action: the first is the consolidation range before the tariff driven decline, and the second is the volume profile of the subsequent uptrend. You’ll notice that price broke out of the previous consolidation range without any meaningful retracement back into that fair value zone, essentially melting up. This creates thin structural support that can easily give way if meaningful sell-side pressure emerges. Secondly, price has failed twice above the Value Area High of the uptrend’s fair value range near $538. These failures resulted in a failed auction that drove price to the opposite end of the range at $472. What concerns me most is the rejection at the Point of Control (the most heavily traded zone), highlighted in blue. Price reacted sharply from that level, forming a resistance zone that has not been reclaimed, an indication of potential weakness. Third, price is now losing the uptrend anchored VWAP from the previous swing low. In my view, this is a major support level that typically signals trend continuation, where buyers should be stepping in to defend price. That is not occurring. If price breaks below the Value Area Low where the most recent swing low sits I would be concerned about a possible waterfall move that could bring price back into previous support zones. If such a drop does occur, I will not panic. Instead, I will recognize it as a potential major buying opportunity in a fundamentally strong and profitable company one that could represent nearly a 25% decline from the highs. Only time will tell..

MSFT — Bullish Structure Intact Above 373.22, Targeting 739.88.Microsoft remains in a well-defined long-term bullish structure despite the current pullback from the 0.40–0.50 Fibonacci resistance cluster. The recent decline appears corrective in nature and does not signal any structural weakness as long as the stock preserves its main support foundation. Key Support (Primary Structural Level): 373.22 The level at 373.22 represents the most critical demand zone on the chart. It marks: The origin of the previous bullish impulse, A zone of strong institutional accumulation, The base that continues to anchor the long-term trend. As long as price stays above 373.22, the broader upward cycle remains intact. Fibonacci Expansion Targets (Long-Term Investor Levels) The current impulsive leg projects the following upside targets: 483.97 (0.333) 509.67 (0.40) 548.04 (0.50) 593.32 (0.618) 643.96 (0.75) 701.51 (0.90) 739.88 (1.00 — primary long-term extension) These levels correspond to strategic zones where institutional models anticipate consolidation or profit-taking. Market Structure & Investor Outlook The long-term trend remains strongly bullish. The current pullback is normal retracement behavior. Secondary demand pockets sit at 446.75 and 413.75 if the pullback deepens. Macro structure remains fully intact above 373.22. Bullish Continuation Scenario (Base Case) If MSFT holds above 483.97 and regains momentum, the price can progress through: 509 → 548 → 593 → 643 → 701 → 739.88 This represents the natural continuation path of the current expansion. Bearish Scenario (Limited & Non-Structural) The only valid bearish scenario for now is a return to retest the key support at 373.22. This move would represent: A technical retest, A liquidity sweep, A refresh of institutional demand, not a trend reversal As long as price holds 373.22, the long-term bullish structure remains unchanged. Conclusion Microsoft continues to demonstrate strong long-term structural integrity. The only bearish possibility is a corrective move back toward the 373.22 support, after which the broader trend is expected to resume toward the long-term targets: 509, 548, 593, 643, 701, and 739.88.

MSFT Holding a Tight Range — Levels I’m Watching for Nov 26 MSFT spent most of the session stuck inside that tight 475–478 pocket. It never really committed in either direction, and when a stock trades like this, it usually means bigger players are positioning quietly ahead of the next move. The recovery off the morning shakeout was solid, but every attempt toward 478 kept getting absorbed. That kind of steady rejection usually hints that there’s something sitting overhead — not sellers necessarily, but hedging pressure. On the 15-minute view, you can see how controlled the move has been. Nothing impulsive, nothing sloppy. Just slow buying with shallow pullbacks, then that familiar hesitation right under the ceiling. The candles toward the end of the day say a lot: smaller bodies, slower pace, and a clear unwillingness to push into that resistance. If you check the 1-hour GEX chart I uploaded below, the reason for that hesitation becomes pretty obvious. There are heavy call walls stacked right above price. That whole stretch from 479 into the low 480s is packed with hedging resistance, which usually acts like a lid until volume picks up. Below price, the GEX landscape is cleaner — good put support around 470 and deeper at 465 — which explains why MSFT hasn’t been eager to unwind. So for Nov 26, I’m mainly watching two things: A clean break above 478 gives MSFT a chance to move into 479, and if that gets taken out with real momentum, then 482.5 becomes the next logical magnet. But if price stays stuck under that band, it’s just more coiling. If MSFT loses 475 and stays below it, then the market probably wants to revisit 472 or even 470 to reload. Option Angle Calls only make sense if price can finally get above 478 with strength — that’s where the air pockets sit between GEX levels. MSFT usually moves quickly when it clears a hedging cluster. Puts only make sense if 475 breaks cleanly. Below that, 472 and 470 open up. If MSFT stays above 475, puts decay fast because the structure leans bullish. Disclaimer This is not financial advice. It’s just my personal view based on chart behavior and options data. Always trade your own plan and manage your risk.

Microsoft: Overvalued but Still Bullish - Watching the 400–450Microsoft NASDAQ:MSFT 1. Quick Trade Plan (for those who want levels first) 🎯 Market Bias: Long term bullish, but in a late phase of the cycle. Strategy: Don’t chase highs; buy the correction. 📌 Buy Zones Primary Buy Zone: 400–450 USD Strong support cluster and the preferred accumulation zone. Aggressive Early Entries: 450–470 on sharp dips, but main focus remains 400–450. ⛔ Invalidation Level 345 USD A break below this level invalidates the mid term bullish structure. 🎯 Take Profit Targets TP1: ~600 TP2: 680–720 Potential completion of the final fifth wave. 🧭 For Current Holders Continue holding while above 345. Use a protective stop below 345 if trading shares. Options traders may hedge instead. 🆕 For New Buyers Avoid entering near ATHs. Wait for the 400–450 pullback. Use 345 as your hard-risk level. 2. Fundamental Overview: Great Business, Clearly Overvalued 💼📊 Microsoft has delivered very stable mid-teens growth for years: Revenue growth: 15–17 percent annually EPS growth: also 15–20 percent annually Last 3 quarters: EPS +9–12 percent, revenue in the same range This is a mature mega-cap, not a hyper-growth name. ⚠️ Buybacks Stopped Company regularly bought back shares for six years Stopped in March 2023 and hasn’t resumed This removes a major EPS-boosting engine 📉 Valuation (Peter Lynch style) EPS growth ≈ 15 percent P/E ≈ 30 Stock trades at ~2x its fundamental fair value Conclusion: Amazing business. Predictable. Cash generative. 🔥 But fundamentally overpriced and in the late stage of its growth curve. 3. Technical Picture: Still Bullish, but Late in the Cycle 📐📈 📅 Long Term Channel Since 2010 Price has stayed inside a massive uptrend channel for 14+ years. As long as MSFT remains inside it, the primary trend stays bullish. 📏 200-Day Moving Average MSFT consistently bounces from the 200d MA on the weekly. That keeps the structural bull trend intact. 🌊 Elliott Wave Context Currently in the 5th sub-wave of a larger 3rd wave Upside still possible Potential final wave targets: 600–700 ⏳ What Comes After Once this major wave completes: Expect a multi-year sideways cycle (5–7 years) as the market distributes the massive positions accumulated since 2009. 4. Current Structure: A Correction Is Likely Before New Highs 🔄 We already saw an A–B–C correction, but structure suggests another A–B–C, forming a zigzag, before the final move higher. 🎯 Why 400–450 Is the Key Zone Major liquidity & support cluster Aligns with channel midline and prior consolidation Perfect area for a 5th wave launch If MSFT hits 400–450 and bounces → 600–700 is back on the table. 5. What To Do Based on Your Situation 🧭 ✔️ If You Already Hold MSFT Stay in the trade while above 345 Expect volatility You can hedge or use a stop below 345 🟦 If You Want to Enter Don’t FOMO near the highs ❌ Wait for a pullback into 400–450 Start with partial size, add on confirmation 345 = hard stop ⚡ If You Trade Short Term Shorts are counter-trend Treat every drop as a tactical move, not a macro reversal Unless 345 breaks 6. Final Thoughts ✨ Microsoft is still in a powerful long term uptrend, but: Fundamentally overvalued Technically late stage of its long cycle Likely to give a clean buyable correction Best accumulation zone: 400–450 Invalidation: 345 Upside targets: 600–700 It’s a “buy the dip, not the rip” market for MSFT. Not financial advice — manage risk according to your plan.

Resurfacing fears of AI overinvestment triggered by MSFT A report claimed that Microsoft (MSFT) had lowered AI product sales growth targets across several divisions by as much as 50% for the current fiscal year, after many sales teams failed to meet targets for the fiscal year ending June 2025. Although MSFT swiftly denied the report, it reignited investor concerns about AI monetization and the risk of overinvestment. Adding to the unease, IBM CEO Krishna warned that even trillions of dollars invested in AI data centers cannot deliver meaningful returns under current cost structures, further fueling market anxiety. MSFT briefly tested the resistance at 493.00 before falling below EMA21. The price remains below bearish EMAs, indicating a potential downtrend continuation. If MSFT fails to close above EMA21, the price could retreat toward the following support at 465.00. Conversely, if MSFT breaches above EMA21 and 493.00, the price may advance toward the next resistance at 510.

Global Banking and Financial Stability1. The Role of Global Banking in the World Economy Global banking institutions include commercial banks, investment banks, universal banks, central banks, and cross-border financial intermediaries. These institutions perform several core functions that support global economic growth: 1.1 Capital Allocation Banks collect deposits and channel them into loans for businesses, households, and governments. Efficient capital allocation ensures that productive sectors—manufacturing, technology, infrastructure—receive the funding they need to expand. 1.2 Facilitating Global Trade Banks finance trade through letters of credit, export financing, and currency exchange. International transactions require trust, documentation, and risk management, which banks provide by acting as intermediaries. 1.3 Payment Systems Modern banking supports real-time payments, cross-border remittances, SWIFT messaging, and digital fund transfers. These systems form the highway on which global money flows. 1.4 Risk Management and Hedging Banks design instruments such as derivatives, currency swaps, and interest-rate futures, helping businesses manage forex, commodity, and credit risks. This stabilizes global supply chains and investment strategies. 2. The Architecture of Global Financial Stability Financial stability means the system continues functioning even when faced with shocks—like economic downturns, geopolitical events, or market volatility. Several pillars support this: 2.1 Robust Banking Regulations After the 2008 financial crisis, global regulators introduced stronger frameworks: Basel III norms improved capital adequacy and liquidity requirements. Stress testing ensures banks can survive market shocks. Macroprudential regulations prevent systemic risks like credit bubbles. These safeguards ensure banks hold enough capital and liquidity to absorb losses. 2.2 Central Bank Oversight Central banks like the Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, Bank of England, RBI, and others play a major role in maintaining stability by: Setting interest rates Controlling inflation Providing emergency funding through lender-of-last-resort facilities Supervising financial institutions Regulating payment systems Their decisions directly affect borrowing costs, credit supply, currency values, and overall financial stability. 2.3 International Institutions Bodies such as the IMF, World Bank, Bank for International Settlements (BIS), and Financial Stability Board (FSB) create global standards, provide financial aid during crises, and coordinate cross-border regulations. Their involvement becomes crucial during sovereign debt crises and currency collapses. 3. Key Risks to Global Banking Systems Despite advancements in regulation, global banks face several systemic risks: 3.1 Credit Risk The possibility that borrowers fail to repay loans. High default rates—especially in corporate or real-estate sectors—can weaken bank balance sheets. 3.2 Liquidity Risk When banks cannot meet short-term obligations due to insufficient cash. Liquidity crises often trigger bank runs or emergency central bank interventions. 3.3 Market Risk Changes in interest rates, currency prices, or asset valuations can reduce the value of a bank’s holdings. Sudden rate hikes or stock market crashes may cause large unrealized losses. 3.4 Operational and Cyber Risk Digitalization increases the risk of cyberattacks on banks, potentially disrupting payment systems or exposing customer data. Technology failures also pose operational threats. 3.5 Contagion Risk Because banks are interconnected, the failure of one major bank or a country’s financial system can create chain reactions globally. This was seen during: The 2008 Lehman Brothers collapse The 2011 Eurozone debt crisis The 2023 regional bank failures in the U.S. Interconnectedness magnifies both strength and vulnerability. 4. The Drivers of Financial Stability in the Current Global Environment 4.1 Strong Bank Balance Sheets Global banks today hold higher capital buffers and liquidity reserves. This increases their ability to withstand market shocks. 4.2 Digital Transformation in Banking Technology improves efficiency, risk monitoring, and compliance. Real-time data analytics help banks detect stress early and manage exposures more effectively. 4.3 Banking Consolidation Mergers create larger, stronger banks with diversified operations. This reduces individual institution risk but can also create “too-big-to-fail” challenges. 4.4 Improved Crisis Management Frameworks Many countries now have: Deposit insurance Resolution mechanisms for failing banks Better stress tests Contingency funding arrangements These tools reduce panic and ensure orderly handling of distressed institutions. 5. Emerging Challenges for Global Financial Stability 5.1 Geopolitical Tensions Trade wars, sanctions, and military conflicts affect currency stability, commodity prices, and cross-border capital flows. 5.2 Inflation and Interest Rate Volatility High inflation forces central banks to raise rates. Rapid hikes increase borrowing costs and can strain banking sectors—especially in emerging markets. 5.3 Shadow Banking Risks Non-bank financial institutions—hedge funds, fintech lenders, investment funds—play a growing role but operate with less regulation. Their instability can spill into the banking system. 5.4 Climate and Sustainability Risks Climate-related disasters, ESG compliance pressures, and the transition to green economies impact credit portfolios, insurance markets, and investment strategies. 5.5 Digital Currencies and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) While innovation brings opportunities, it also poses risks: Volatile crypto markets Lack of regulatory frameworks Potential loss of monetary policy control Cyber-vulnerabilities Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) may reshape global banking in unpredictable ways. 6. The Path Forward: Strengthening the Future of Global Finance Ensuring long-term global financial stability requires coordinated efforts across governments, banks, international organizations, and the private sector. Key priorities include: 6.1 Strengthening Regulation and Supervision Continuous evolution of Basel norms, cyber-resilience frameworks, and cross-border regulatory cooperation is essential. 6.2 Enhancing Financial Inclusion Stable banking systems must serve not just corporates but also small businesses and individuals. Digital banking, UPI-type platforms, and low-cost financial services reduce inequality and strengthen economies. 6.3 Building Resilient Digital Infrastructure Banks must invest heavily in cybersecurity, cloud reliability, AI-driven risk analysis, and fraud prevention. 6.4 Sustainable and Responsible Banking Green financing, climate-risk assessment, and ESG compliance will increasingly shape global credit flows and stability metrics. 6.5 Crisis Preparedness Regular stress tests, liquidity buffers, and emergency response frameworks help ensure rapid containment of shocks without widespread disruption. Conclusion Global banking is the lifeline of modern economies, facilitating capital flow, trade, investment, and innovation. Financial stability depends on well-regulated, well-capitalized, and well-supervised banking institutions that can withstand economic and geopolitical shocks. As globalization deepens and new risks like cyber threats, climate change, and digital currencies emerge, maintaining stability will require constant vigilance, updated regulatory frameworks, and resilient financial infrastructure. Ultimately, the strength of the global banking system shapes the strength of the global economy, influencing growth, employment, and prosperity for billions of people.

PERFECT MSFT SHORTWe have a really strong timeframe alignment on NASDAQ:MSFT , presenting us with a great shorting opportunity. Weekly If we start top down from the weekly, MSFT had a strong and fast rally but has faced strong rejection on the upper side of its long term upward channel. Price may now look to retrace to its previous long-term swing high after this rejection. We also see volatility constriction through Bollinger Bands, indicating potential for large price moves and volume to occur soon. Daily On the daily chart we see a strong rejection of the daily 50 ema and resistive levels after a downside breakout. Hourly For the entry on the 1hr timeframe we are looking at a large head and shoulder formation, with a trend rejection and a strong rejection of the 1hr 100ema. I am targeting the previous long-term swing high at 470 as my singular TP. Goodluck-nfa.
