Microsoft shares closed near $494 on September 18 amid post-earnings momentum from robust Azure growth of 43% and expanding Copilot adoption exceeding 30 million paid seats, though elevated capital expenditures pressured margins. With the next earnings release scheduled for late October and no major catalysts expected during the week of September 21, trader positioning reflects uncertainty over near-term momentum in a market trading at roughly 25 times forward earnings. The clustered probabilities across the $480–$510 range underscore how sustained cloud demand and AI monetization must offset broader tech-sector volatility and macroeconomic factors to determine the weekly close, consistent with the market-implied odds favoring outcomes around current levels.

If the reported value falls exactly between two brackets, then this market will resolve to the higher range bracket.
Closing prices will be used exactly as published by Pyth, without rounding.
For a standard full trading session, the closing price refers to the Pyth "Close" value of the 1-minute candle corresponding to the final minute of regular trading hours on the primary exchange. If the relevant session is shortened (for example, due to a market-holiday schedule), the Pyth "Close" value of the 1-minute candle corresponding to the final minute of that shortened session will be used.
If the relevant day has no valid Pyth Close value for the 1-minute candle corresponding to the end of regular trading hours on the primary exchange, the market will use the last valid Pyth price achieved during the regular trading hours of the primary exchange as the effective closing price. If no valid Pyth price exists for that trading day due to a system outage, data failure, or other technical disruption, the official closing price published by the primary exchange on which the listed security trades will be used to determine the closing price for that day.
In the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, or similar corporate action affecting the listed security during the listed time frame, this market will resolve based on split-adjusted prices as displayed on Pyth. The target price will be adjusted proportionally to reflect any stock splits. Resolution will be based on the historical price data as shown on Pyth after any adjustments have been applied.
The resolution source for this market will be Pyth, specifically the "Close" values for the relevant 1-minute candle for Microsoft Corporation (MSFT) available at https://pythdata.app/explore/Equity.US.MSFT%2FUSD.
