ORCL: AI Data Center Expansion And Financing Will Drive Future Upside

Analysts have trimmed the Oracle price target by about $11 to reflect slightly higher discounting, lower projected profit margins and a modestly lower future P/E multiple, even as revenue growth expectations are supported by recent Q3 beats, raised long term revenue goals and broadly constructive research commentary. Analyst Commentary Street research on Oracle clusters around strong Q3 execution, rising long term cloud ambitions and a reset in valuation assumptions after a sharp selloff.
