Market Index Analysis

  • Oracle (ORCL) is a member of the S&P 100 Index and the S&P 500 Index.

  • The Bull Bear Power Indicator of the S&P 500 Index is bearish with a descending trendline.

Market Sentiment Analysis

Equity futures are lower as the announcement to release oil from the US and the IEA's strategic petroleum reserves failed to reverse the rally, which had receded from nearly $120, but has since reversed its slide after two oil tankers were attacked and oil terminals were suspended. Tomorrow’s February PCE will provide another reading on inflation, but before the surge in oil prices. Adobe and Dollar General will report earnings after the bell, potentially injecting volatility into Friday’s session.

Oracle Fundamental Analysis

Oracle is among the 20 largest companies in the world, selling database software, enterprise applications, and cloud infrastructure and hardware. It is also a member of the US-based Stargate joint venture with OpenAI, SoftBank, and MGX.

So, why am I bullish on ORCL following its earnings release?

Oracle reported revenues of $17.19 billion and earnings per share of $1.79, beating estimates of $16.93 billion in revenues and earnings per share of $1.70. I remain bullish due to its improved 2026 and 2027 outlook, while models trained on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) with enterprise applications deliver faster, cheaper AI services than rivals. I am equally bullish on its strategic partnerships, including a $300 billion deal with OpenAI, a $5 to $9 billion deal with TikTok's US operations, and a $88 million deal with the US Air Force.
