Today’s Zacks Research Daily highlights 16 major stocks, including Apple Inc. (AAPL), Oracle Corp. (ORCL), and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (GS), as well as micro-cap stock Precipio, Inc. (PRPO). Apple is seeing growth in Services revenues, while Oracle benefits from cloud infrastructure investments. Goldman Sachs is refocusing on investment banking and trading businesses. Precipio is scaling profitably in its pathology division.
Apple’s Services revenue growth, Apple TV+, and Apple Arcade are driving subscriber growth, with revenues expected to grow low to mid-single digits in the June quarter. However, iPhone sales weakness, especially in China, and regulatory challenges are concerns for investors.
Oracle’s outperformance is driven by strong results in its Cloud Infrastructure business, with partnerships with Amazon and Google. However, increased spending on cloud platform enhancements and competition in the cloud domain may limit margin expansion.
Goldman Sachs’ performance has been strong, with plans to raise dividends after clearing the 2025 Fed stress test. While its focus on investment banking and trading is positive, geopolitical concerns and overseas revenue dependence are potential risks.
Precipio, a micro-cap company, is seeing success in its pathology division, with expanding revenues and gross margins. However, liquidity concerns, onboarding delays, and regulatory risks pose challenges, with execution and funding critical for future growth.
Overall, these companies offer a mix of growth opportunities and challenges, making them interesting options for investors to consider. Visit the Zacks Research Daily for more insights on these stocks and others in the market.
