According to CoinMeta, as reported by Cailian News on October 28th, the stock price trends of Microsoft and Google have clearly diverged since their last financial reports were released. As the pressure exerted by massive expenditures on artificial intelligence on corporate profits receives increasing attention, Wall Street is also examining more closely the returns on investment in AI by both companies. These two tech giants are major players in the AI sector and will release their financial results after the market closes on Wednesday. Recent stock price performance indicates that investors seem to favor Microsoft more. The market expects that Google's free cash flow will be negative in 2026 and 2027, while Microsoft's free cash flow is expected to decline in the current fiscal year ending next June before resuming growth.
