The author closed 50% of their MSFT position before earnings for a profit and intends to re-enter if the stock drops. This implies a belief that MSFT is undervalued at current or lower levels and that a dip would be a buying opportunity before a rally to $500. The author is net bullish on MSFT for the remainder of 2026, using a simple buy-the-dip strategy combined with a flexible exit. If MSFT continues to rally without a pullback, the sold half misses additional gains. If it drops, the remaining half still suffers losses. Community comments highlight this as a "lose-lose" scenario. No fundamental catalyst or data supports the $500 target.
