NTSB Says Issues A Total Of Seven Safety Recommendations To The FAA And Boeing To Address Noncompliant Evacuation Slide Components On Boeing Airplanes

Oracle Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) just pulled back the curtain on its cloud ambitions at OCI Day, giving investors a close-up look at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence">its AI-powered</a> data center expansion.
While AI demand continues to surge, JPMorgan analyst Mark R. Murphy remains cautious, maintaining a Neutral stance on Oracle stock with a $135 price target, below its current trading level of $145.86.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">AI Demand: Booming, But Is It Enough?</h1>
Oracle is doubling down on its AI infrastructure, expanding its customer-facing regions from 69 to 101 in the past year. But while the company insists demand is outpacing supply, Murphy notes that this messaging feels less urgent than before. 
Still, Oracle's investment in AI data centers suggests confidence in sustained demand, despite growing chatter about an "overbuild" or even an AI bubble.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Training Vs. Inferencing: Oracle Sees No Difference</h1>
One of the most debated topics in AI infrastructure is the difference between training (building models) and inferencing (running models). While Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) leans heavily on inferencing for steady revenue, Oracle argues that for major customers, both processes look the same. This implies a more persistent AI compute need than skeptics might believe, said Murphy.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Bubble Concerns? Oracle Hedging Its Bets</h1>
With Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella warning of an AI "overbuild" and Alibaba Group Holdings Ltd's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABAF#NYSE">BABAF</a>) chairman hinting at a potential bubble, Oracle's response was refreshingly pragmatic, Murphy noted.
Oracle Executive Vice President Clay Magouyrk dodged long-term predictions, instead emphasizing infrastructure flexibility — stating Oracle could repurpose its GPUs for general computing or storage if AI demand wanes. This adaptability could prove crucial if the AI hype cycle falters.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Oracle's Data Center Push: Big, But Not The Biggest</h1>
The event took place at Oracle's Novva facility in Utah, a massive operation but one dwarfed by neighboring Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and Boeing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) data centers.
Oracle also showcased plans for an even larger facility in Abilene, Texas, suggesting its AI cloud ambitions are just getting started.
Murphy sees Oracle's AI-driven cloud expansion as a long-term play, but acknowledges near-term challenges — particularly hefty capital expenditures cutting into free cash flow.
While Oracle's growth trajectory is promising, it still faces hurdles in keeping up with hyperscaler giants. For now, the AI gold rush continues — but not without risks.
ORCL Price Action: Oracle stock is down 5.41% at $137.97 Thursday morning at publication.

Boeing's Options: A Look at What the Big Money is Thinking

Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) expanded its order pipeline after bagging five major deals over the last 10 days. While its short and medium-term price trend remains strong, here&#8217;s more on the company&#8217;s technical analysis.
What Happened: Here are the five orders bagged by Boeing from March 21 to March 30.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Malaysia Aviation Group:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Ordered 30 Boeing 737 MAX aircraft (18 737-8 jets and 12 737-10 jets) with options for 30 more. This order is to modernize Malaysia Airlines&#8217; single-aisle fleet and enhance passenger experience in Southeast Asia.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Japan Airlines:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Ordered 17 additional Boeing 737-8s to refresh their domestic fleet. This order nearly doubles JAL&#8217;s 737 MAX backlog.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Korean Air:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Finalized an order for up to 50 widebody aircraft, including 20 each of 777-9 jets, and 787-10 jets, and options for 10 more 787 Dreamliners. This is Korean Air&#8217;s largest Boeing order, supporting their post-merger transformation.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">U.S. Army Special Operations Aviation Command:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Ordered five additional Boeing MH-47G Block II Chinook helicopters. This contract brings the total MH-47G Block II aircraft under contract to 51, supporting the modernization of the Army&#8217;s fleet.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">BOC Aviation:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Ordered 50 Boeing 737-8 jets to support global airlines. This expands BOC Aviation&#8217;s 737 MAX portfolio and supports the growing demand for narrowbody aircraft.</li>
</ul>

Why It Matters: Technical analysis of the simple moving averages on <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> shows that Boeing&#8217;s stock, which ended at $170.55 apiece as of Monday, was below its eight and 50-day moving averages. Whereas it had a near-term support at its 50-day moving average of $167.02 and 200-day moving average of $167.67.
The relative strength index of 48.92 signaled that the stock was in a neutral zone, while its MACD momentum indicator displayed a bullish trend. Its 12-day exponential moving average was above the 26-day EMA, thus indicating a positive momentum in the near-term.

Boeing&#8217;s stock fell sharply in 2024 due to safety concerns from a 737 MAX incident, production halts from labor disputes, 777X delays, and defense contract losses, all resulting in delivery shortfalls and financial strain.
Price Action: Boeing fell 0.33% in premarket on Tuesday, whereas SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), tracking the S&amp;P 500 index, declined 0.066% to $559.02.
BA was down 0.77% on a year-to-date basis and 10.00% lower over a year.
Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings indicate Boeing has positive medium and long-term price trends, contrasted by a weak short-term outlook. Momentum ranking is solid at the 67.79th percentile, but value and growth rankings are lower.

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BA/analyst-ratings">Benzinga&#8217;s analysis of 22 analysts</a> shows a consensus &#8220;hold&#8221; rating for the stock, with an average price target of $201.63, ranging from $113 to $260. Recent ratings from Wells Fargo, Citigroup, and JPMorgan average $174.33, suggesting a 2.55% potential upside.

Boeing Charting A Quiet Comeback? Aircraft Maker Bags Five Major Contracts In Last 10 Days: Here's What Its Chart Shows

Warren Buffett&#8216;s Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) revealed that Precision Castparts, an aerospace parts manufacturer it acquired in 2016, has experienced close to a $2 billion increase in value.
What Happened: The Oracle of Omaha had previously labeled the acquisition a &#8220;big mistake,&#8221; leading Berkshire to take approximately $10 billion writedown in 2021. Buffett admitted that he &#8220;paid too much&#8221; for the company when Berkshire acquired it for $37 billion in 2016, leading to significant job cuts. The recovery has brought Precision Castparts&#8217; value to about $34 billion, nearing the break-even point for the deal, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/6dbdec34-b2f8-4e9c-8b31-ac008211d4cd">reported</a> the Financial Times.
The aerospace industry&#8217;s resurgence after the 2020 pandemic and increased production from Boeing (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), a key client of Precision Castparts, are credited with the recovery. Deloitte &amp; Touche resolved a critical audit issue related to Precision Castparts, which had affected Berkshire&#8217;s financial reports for five years.
In the past, Deloitte had flagged the valuation of Precision Castparts as requiring a &#8220;high&nbsp;degree of auditor judgment and&nbsp;an increased extent of effort.&#8221; However, as its customers&#8217; prospects improved, Berkshire&#8217;s management increased its estimate, providing more flexibility.

Why It Matters: Precision Castparts, has been on a growth trajectory since 2024, bouncing back from a difficult start to the decade. Despite the challenges, the company&#8217;s revenues finally surpassed their 2019 peak in 2024, rising 12% to $10.4 billion. Pre-tax profits also saw a significant rebound, increasing by 24% to approximately $1.9 billion. 
The company attributes the revenue increase to higher demand for aerospace products and, to a lesser extent, power generation products. The earnings increase was mainly due to sales increases and improved manufacturing and operating efficiencies.
Precision Castparts&#8217; future success could depend on its ability to increase production to match expected growth in air travel and demand for aerospace products, as well as improvements in industry supply chains and labor relations.
In its annual letter to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/exclusives/25/02/43917155/warren-buffett-americas-businesses-usually-find-a-way">Berkshire&#8217;s shareholders</a> in February, Buffet wrote, &#8220;While our ownership in marketable equities moved downward last year from $354 billion to $272 billion, the value of our non-quoted controlled equities increased somewhat and remains far greater than the value of the marketable portfolio.&#8221;
Buffett is likely to address further questions regarding Precision Castparts at the company&#8217;s annual meeting in May.
