On October 28, 2025, Guggenheim Securities announced that it has upgraded Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) to a "Buy" rating from its previous "Neutral" stance. The investment firm also set a new price target of $586 for Microsoft's stock, implying around 12% potential upside from the current trading levels.
