Oracle has announced plans to increase its capital expenditure on cloud infrastructure to nearly $50 billion over the next several years, with a focus on GPU-rich data centers tailored for AI workloads. The company expects this investment to drive faster revenue growth beginning in fiscal 2027, leveraging surging demand for generative AI services and enterprise cloud deployments. Oracle’s internal forecasts project a compound annual growth rate for cloud revenue of over 20% through that period, as the expanded GPU capacity supports new AI service offerings and hybrid cloud adoption by large corporate clients.

A severe weather–related power outage at one of Oracle’s U.S. data centers last week disrupted TikTok’s American operations, underscoring service-continuity challenges for hyperscale customers. TikTok reported slower load times, time-out errors and partial content ineligibility flags, fueling user frustration and a spike in app deletions in the U.S. Although power was restored within 48 hours, the incident prompted Oracle to pledge enhanced redundancy measures and further investment in backup power and network resiliency across its global data center portfolio.

Recent SEC filings show that Belpointe Asset Management reduced its stake in Oracle by 18.2% during the third quarter, trimming approximately 5,300 shares and leaving its total holding at just under 24,000 shares. Meanwhile, Vanguard and State Street modestly increased their positions, reflecting continued confidence from large index funds. On the insider front, two senior executives sold a combined 25,000 shares late last quarter, marking a roughly 6% decline in their individual ownership stakes. Insider sales over the past 90 days total more than 62,000 shares, representing 40.9% of the company’s outstanding shares held by executives.

In its December quarter, Oracle reported non-GAAP EPS that exceeded consensus estimates by $0.62 and delivered 14.2% year-over-year revenue growth, driven by strength in cloud applications and infrastructure. The company ended the period with a return on equity exceeding 70% and a net margin above 25%. Additionally, Oracle is advancing its push to achieve FedRAMP Moderate authorization for Primavera Cloud, targeting multi-year federal contracts and deeper penetration into regulated markets. Success in the federal sector could unlock recurring revenue streams and bolster Oracle’s competitive positioning against other major cloud providers.
