Oracle Corporation (ORCL) shares have come under pressure recently, slipping 18.98% in the past five trading sessions amid a broader market sell-off. As the company heads into its quarterly earnings on Wednesday, June 10, after market close, BNP Paribas is closely watching the print and expects Oracle to raise its capital spending forecast, adding another key focus for investors.
Analyst Stefan Slowinski noted that Oracle continues to push forward despite financing pressures, while Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) customer prepayments support balance sheet stability. Meanwhile, OpenAI's $122 billion raise underscores rising demand for compute, and Crusoe's Abilene project remains on track to complete by July, keeping expansion plans firmly in motion.
