Oracle downgraded to Hold amid concerns over cash flow and high capital spending despite strong growth.

Oracle Corporation is downgraded to Hold due to ongoing market concerns about its high capital expenditures and negative free cash flow, despite strong revenue growth driven by cloud infrastructure. The company reported a record $23 billion in operating cash flow but spent $28 billion on capital expenditures, pressuring credit ratings and investor confidence. Shares are trading below historical averages as skepticism grows over long-term backlog conversion and slowing AI development. The stock is expected to consolidate in the near term amid these challenges.
