Billionaire investor Bill Ackman has started buying Microsoft shares after the stock fell over 15% in 2026, seeing value at 21 times forward earnings. Ackman, known for concentrated bets, views Microsoft's Azure cloud and M365 AI suite as key drivers of long-term growth, despite competition fears. Microsoft's strong Q3 fiscal 2026 results, including 40% Azure growth and a $37 billion AI business run rate, support Ackman's confidence. The size of his stake, to be revealed in the upcoming 13F filing, could rank Microsoft among his top holdings, signaling a strong conviction in the company's AI-driven future.
