Cloud stock Oracle Corp (NYSE:ORCL) is soaring to all-time highs today, following the company's better-than-expected fiscal first-quarter results.
Oracle NYSE: ORCL will have to triple in value to hit the $1 trillion mark and have a valuation on par with today's Magnificent 7, but it can do it. Its FQ1/CQ3 results reveal its growing importance to Internet infrastructure, the cloud, and AI, which is accelerating revenue and earnings growth.
While Oracle's outlook for the current quarter was in line with expectations, the company could boost its fiscal 2026 outlook at Thursday's investor day.

Oracle's fiscal Q1 2025 guidance is impressive, with a 53% y/y increase in RPO and strong cloud business growth, making its valuation attractive. Oracle's cloud services, including OCI and databases, are expanding rapidly, with significant growth in SaaS, IaaS, and cloud database services. Despite competition and supply constraints, Oracle's double-digit growth forecast and strategic partnerships with AWS, Google, and Microsoft bolster its investment appeal.

I reiterate a 'Sell' rating for Oracle, citing concerns over its legacy business despite positive cloud and AI growth, with a fair value of $125 per share. Oracle's partnership with Amazon's AWS is promising, facilitating easier migration and integration for customers, but Oracle is still late to the cloud database market. Oracle's cloud services show strong growth, but hardware, on-premise licenses, and services are declining, impacting overall revenue and growth prospects.
