On September 3, Oracle rose 3.17% in regular trading, trading at $150.34/share, with turnover of $523 million. The stock rebounded from recent weakness driven by layoff concerns and analyst target price cuts.
On the news front, Hewlett Packard Enterprise announced a multi-year global collaboration with Oracle to deploy HPE Juniper Networking equipment and services across Oracle's global AI data centers. The deployment covers PTX and MX routers as well as QFX and EX switches, along with multi-year network support services. As part of the agreement, HPE has issued warrants to Oracle for the purchase of HPE common stock. The partnership lays a critical network foundation for Oracle's AI infrastructure, enabling a more efficient and scalable cloud platform to meet growing global AI computing demand.
The announcement comes amid a complex backdrop for Oracle, including EU scrutiny of its cloud licensing practices and multiple analyst target price reductions, with Jefferies lowering its target to $290 and TD Cowen to $240, though both maintained Buy ratings. Oracle's next earnings report is scheduled for September 10, which will be closely watched for cloud business profitability and AI transformation progress.
