Oracle sets new standards in stock prices – Cloud growth boosts market value

The joy among Oracle investors could hardly be greater at the moment. The software giant's stock experienced a massive surge on Thursday, reaching a historic high after the company presented impressive quarterly results and gave an optimistic revenue forecast for the fiscal year. The expected significant revenue increase is primarily driven by strong growth in the cloud infrastructure sector, which Oracle predicts will rise by over 70 percent. These encouraging prospects led several analysts to raise their price targets, with analysts from KeyBanc notably describing Oracle's growth forecasts as "breathtaking." On Thursday, Oracle's stock value increased by 13 percent, closing just below the $200 mark, making it the leader in the S&P 500. The stock has gained nearly 70 percent since the low point in April 2025 and has already grown by 20 percent in 2025 alone, putting it in a leading position compared to the S&P 500. Technical analyses offer exciting insights into Oracle's further price development. The stock recently broke through an "inverse head and shoulders" pattern, which is another indicator of the positive trend. This momentum continued on Thursday, when a "breakaway gap" with high trading volume catapulted the price upward. However, caution is advised as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates overheated market conditions and warns of possible short-term profit-taking. Informed forecasts suggest optimistic price targets of up to $275 if the trend continues. It remains important to monitor price supports along the way to detect setbacks early. A pullback to around $180 could attract investors, while a deeper dip could offer possible entry points at $154.
