The tech giant Microsoft surpassed the tech giant Google (Alphabet) for the first time in three years, in the market assessment as reported by CNBC. This jump may be only temporary, but it does show that the company continues to chase the market since it was overtaken by Google in 2012. History tells us that the two have traded positions several times in recent years. Still, it shows how much the tech giant Microsoft has improved share prices in the last five years since former CEO Steve Ballmer announced his plans to step down as CEO of the tech giant Microsoft. The tech giant Microsoft’s share price has more than doubled since CEO Satya Nadella took office four years ago. Nadella has reordered Microsoft for multiplatform technologies, for the cloud, artificial intelligence and wants to secure the future of quantum computing and mixed-mode devices. Nadella eliminated Microsoft’s failed efforts with Windows Phone/Mobile and the company no longer guides itself as having Windows at the centre of everything it offers. The tech giant Google generates about 90 percent of its advertising revenue, and iPhone accounts for about 60 percent of Apple’s total revenue. In the latest quarter of Microsoft, its Windows, Surface and gaming divisions accounted for approximately 35% of revenue, with the cloud occupying about 30%, Office and productivity more than 30%. The tech giant Microsoft may be facing questions about its relevance to consumers, but the stock price is close to spending $100 per share. Some analysts believe that the company’s cloud business may double in the coming years to help the company reach a market value of $1 billion. So, what do you think about this?
