Microsoft seems grossly overvalued with a P/E of 50. For the longest time, Microsoft had the same P/E as the s&p500 (10-18), but now it’s 56% above the s&p500’s (23). If Azure were to fall behind, I could see msft’s stock

They aren’t necessarily trimming headcount. They’re replacing them with Indian workers on H1B visas from Infosys. However, quality will decrease tremendously. https://m.timesofindia.com/business/india-business/1000
