"Oracle's large GPU holdings should improve margins as compute prices rise, despite its high debt load."

Analyst's reasoning:Oracle has a significant number of GPUs purchased at lower prices, and the ongoing shortage in memory and compute allows it to raise prices. This should help margins even with its debt burden.

"Oracle is a highly leveraged AI infrastructure bet with exploding debt and negative free cash flow — avoid given uncertain payback."

Analyst's reasoning:Oracle's debt is rising toward $150 billion, capex exceeds operating cash flow, and free cash flow has turned negative at -$20 to -$25 billion annually. Despite a $638 billion RPO backlog, the margin and payback are unclear, making this a high-risk leveraged play.
