Key Stories Impacting Oracle

Here are the key news stories impacting Oracle this week:

• Positive Sentiment: Oracle secured a ~15% stake and “Trusted Technology Partner” role in the newly spun‑off U.S. TikTok joint venture, which effectively locks TikTok as a large, long‑term tenant for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and helps justify Oracle’s big data‑center buildouts. This deal is being framed as an infrastructure revenue win rather than a consumer pivot. Oracle’s TikTok Win Isn’t Social Media—It’s a Cloud Power Move
• Neutral Sentiment: Options activity shows sizable bullish bets (whale positions) in Oracle, signaling some traders expect upside or are using derivatives for directional/speculative exposure — this can amplify moves but is not fundamental. This Is What Whales Are Betting On Oracle
• Negative Sentiment: Multiple law firms (Rosen, others) have publicized or filed class actions tied to Oracle’s senior‑note offerings and disclosures about debt used to fund AI/data‑center projects — this litigation creates headline risk and could pressure the stock if claims advance.

• Negative Sentiment: Morgan Stanley flagged that Oracle’s aggressive AI‑infrastructure buildout could create downside risk to EPS targets if spending and revenue cadence diverge from analyst expectations — a reminder that capital intensity and execution timing matter for near‑term earnings. Morgan Stanley finds Oracle’s AI infrastructure buildout creates risk for EPS targets
• Negative Sentiment: High‑profile short/skeptical investors (reported Michael Burry position) and reports that Wall Street showed diminished appetite for some Stargate‑related debt deals have amplified concerns about Oracle’s funding model and liquidity, adding selling pressure.
