Dell Technologies Inc. Class C Common Stock

Dell Technologies Inc

JP Morgan analyst Samik Chatterjee shared earnings previews for several prominent hardware companies, cautioning that these firms may contend with ongoing demand uncertainty and renewed tariff risks in their <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">upcoming earnings reports</a>.
Chatterjee sees another round of conservative results in the coming week, with stock movements more likely to reflect how investors interpret management&#8217;s efforts to either de-risk the second half of the year or contain expectations for potential full-year downside, especially after stronger-than-expected performances in the first half.
In contrast to HP Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPQ#NYSE">HPQ</a>) and Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>), the analyst sees Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPE#NYSE">HPE</a>) and NetApp, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NTAP#NASDAQ">NTAP</a>) as better situated to withstand anticipated headwinds in their upcoming earnings.
Also Read:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/05/45538647/accenture-dell-nvidia-deliver-on-premise-ai-solution-for-regulated-industries" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Accenture, Dell, NVIDIA Deliver On-Premise AI Solution For Regulated Industries</a>
The analyst anticipates that DELL&#8217;s demand drivers, particularly from less macro-sensitive AI spending and its stronger-than-expected AI market share, will effectively offset broader macroeconomic moderation as they look beyond the immediate quarterly results. 
Conversely, the analyst expects HPQ and HPE to be more sensitive to macro trends throughout the year. The analyst also notes that while NTAP shows greater resilience, its revenue upside is limited, as it relies on market share gains to counteract any macro weakness.
Here are the analyst&#8217;s take on some key hardware stocks:
Dell Technologies Inc.: The analyst reiterated the Overweight rating on the stock, raising the price <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/DELL/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">forecast from $108 to $111</a>.
Chatterjee projects the upcoming first-quarter report to look solid on the surface, with strong PC and server demand boosting revenue and margins benefiting from a lower-than-expected mix of AI server sales. However, the analyst cautions that the tariff landscape remains a key concern.
Chatterjee writes that this issue will likely be reflected in second-quarter guidance and possibly in the fiscal 2026 outlook, as the company&#8217;s current baseline assumes higher tariff levels than previously expected, even with reciprocal tariff pauses in place.
The analyst projects revenue of $23.6 billion, reflecting a 6% year-over-year increase. He also predicts gross margins to come in at 22.5%, with operating margins forecasted at 7.9%, pointing to modest strength in profitability metrics.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company: Chatterjee sees the stock as the most favorably positioned among hardware <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/HPE/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">names going into earnings, at least on a near-term basis</a>.
The analyst notes that the company&#8217;s guidance already factors in a slowdown in AI server revenue and assumes a higher tariff burden than peers.
Additionally, he highlights potential upside from stronger networking demand, supported by recent positive results from companies like Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>), Extreme Networks, Inc., and Juniper Networks, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JNPR#NYSE">JNPR</a>).
Chatterjee estimates revenue at $32.4 billion, reflecting 8% year-over-year growth. He forecasts gross margins at 28.7% and operating margins at 9.5%.
HP Inc.: Per the analyst, the company is in a strong position to post a solid second-quarter result, supported by stronger-than-expected revenue as PC demand was likely pulled <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/HPQ/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">forward ahead of potential tariff-driven price hikes</a>.
Chatterjee notes that this comes with limited margin pressure, helped by delayed policy effects, inventory management, and other mitigating factors.
However, he cautions that macroeconomic uncertainty could limit how much of these near-term gains carry into future quarters, as the company faces two key challenges: navigating higher tariffs than previously guided for and uncertainty around PC demand in the second half of fiscal 2025 following earlier-than-usual buying.
The analyst reiterated the Overweight rating on the stock, raising the price forecast from $29 to $30.
NetApp, Inc.: The analyst expects NetApp to see stable demand, supported by new product launches and delayed deals from the previous quarter, leading to a slight revenue beat in F4Q25E. However, FY26 revenue growth is projected to be in the low-to-mid single digits, below long-term averages, due to a muted macro environment and U.S. Public Sector headwinds.
Despite this, EPS is anticipated to exceed consensus due to resilient gross margins (improved product margins and higher Public Cloud revenue mix) and better operating discipline. This positive outlook is expected to drive NTAP&#8217;s valuation multiple back to recent year averages (14x-15x) from the current 13x.

It estimated a 4% drop in the household incomes of the lower decile of Americans by 2033 and a 2% rise in the income of the highest decile.
Meanwhile, the 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.53% and the two-year bond was at 3.9%.

Insights From Analysts:
Senior economist at WisdomTree, Jeremy Siegel, said that he was &#8220;clear-eyed&#8221; about the tariff impact.
&#8220;These tariffs aren't good for the market. Stocks would be higher without them, but the market's current pricing suggests it can absorb the expected hit at current rates.&#8221;
While there was criticism around the One Big, Beautiful Bill on proposed tax cuts, Siegel said, &#8220;While tariffs remain a headwind, the tax cut and a potential easing of tensions in the Middle East could propel equities closer to all-time highs.&#8221;
Meanwhile, quoting the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45536595/big-beautiful-bill-will-explode-the-deficit-and-make-the-rich-richer-congressional-budget-office">CBO estimates</a>, Craig Shapiro of the Bear Traps Report, said, the new Bill will &#8220;explode the deficit while enriching the highest decile of Americans at the expense of the lowest decile.&#8221; 
&#8220;Another opportunity squandered and further proof that the Republican Party continues to cater to the wealthiest Americans time and time again,&#8221; he added.

Economist Peter Schiff was also not enamoured by the Bill as he stated that the tax cuts just boost GDP at the "expense of larger budget and trade deficits and higher inflation, and long-term interest rates."

Super Micro Rolls Out AI Servers With Nvidia's Blackwell Chips To Cut Costs, Boost Performance

A new Republican tax proposal backed by President Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) could give every newborn in the U.S. a head start with a $1,000 investment account.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Are MAGA Accounts?</h2>
The accounts are called &#8220;MAGA Accounts,&#8221; short for &#8220;money account for growth and advancement.&#8221; While the name echoes Trump's famous campaign slogan, the idea came from Cruz, who spent over a year promoting the concept inside the GOP and who initially used the name "Invest America."
"You can call it anything you like,&#8221; Cruz told <a href="https://www.semafor.com/article/05/12/2025/the-new-republican-maga-account-has-a-surprising-architect-ted-cruz">Semafor</a> on Monday. &#8220;What is powerful is enabling every child in America to have an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-investment-accounts-for-kids">investment account</a> and a stake in the American free enterprise system.&#8221;
Don't Miss:
<ul class="wp-block-list">

</ul>
Under the proposal, the federal government would contribute $1,000 to an account for every baby born between 2025 and 2028. Families, friends, and even employers could contribute up to $5,000 each year. Children wouldn't be able to access the funds until they turn 18, and the money would accumulate interest.
Cruz said the goal is to help more Americans benefit from the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/05/45399940/warren-buffett-shows-how-patience-pays-98-of-his-160-billion-wealth-came-after-turning-65-thanks-the-power-of-compound-interest">power of compound interest</a> and grow up with a financial stake in the economy. "This will give everyone a stake," he said. &#8220;When every child has invested, it's no longer an abstract idea.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trump's Imprint</h2>
The MAGA accounts are part of a much larger piece of legislation dubbed &#8220;THE ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL&#8221; — in all capital letters. Trump used the phrase on <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114495946485549840">Truth Social</a>, writing, &#8220;The Bill is GREAT.&#8221;
Trending: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/boxabl-scaling-fast-from-spacex-orders-to-600-homes-built-this-60k-foldable-home-may-be-the-future-of-housing">this is your last chance to become an investor for $0.80 per share.</a>
The <a href="https://waysandmeans.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/SMITMO_017_xml.pdf">bill</a> includes around $4.9 trillion in tax cuts and aims to follow through on Trump's campaign promises. It includes breaks for tipped and overtime workers, retirement-age Americans, and new taxes on private university endowments. It also includes significant cuts to programs like Medicaid, food stamps, and clean energy initiatives.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Cruz vs. &#8216;Baby Bonds&#8217;</h2>
Cruz emphasized that the MAGA accounts are different from Democratic &#8220;baby bond&#8221; proposals, which are more restrictive and don't allow private market investments. &#8220;That is just a government program,&#8221; Cruz said. &#8220;This is very much designed to get the next generation to invest in the market.&#8221;
Business leaders appear to be on board. Investor Brad Gerstner told <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpWyUqBYJfA">CNBC</a> on May 5 that companies like Uber (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>), Dell (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>), Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), and Oracle (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) are already interested in contributing to their employees&#8217; children's accounts. &#8220;You will have an account in the S&amp;P 500 that&#8217;s worth upwards of $50,000 to $60,000. It changes the game by getting everybody. This is the president&#8217;s Main Street agenda.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's Next?</h2>
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is pushing for passage by Memorial Day. If it clears the House, the Senate is expected to make revisions.
Meanwhile, Democrats have slammed the broader bill, especially the proposed Medicaid cuts. Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) told Semafor, "Even a stopped watch is right twice a day,&#8221; giving faint praise to Cruz's MAGA account idea while criticizing the rest of the GOP proposal.

Raymond James has initiated coverage on Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) with an Outperform rating. This move comes in light of Supermicro&#8217;s strong standing in the AI-optimized infrastructure sector and its swift revenue growth.
What Happened: AI platforms constitute approximately 70% of Supermicro&#8217;s revenue, positioning it as a dominant player among branded server vendors. Raymond James has set a $41 price target for the company, projecting Supermicro&#8217;s FY26 revenue at $29.8 billion with an EPS of $3.03, indicating a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 25%, <a href="https://in.investing.com/news/stock-market-news/raymond-james-initiates-smci-coverage-with-outperform-rating-on-ai-tailwinds-4826948">reported</a> Investing.com.
Raymond James highlighted that Supermicro has effectively carved out a niche for itself and &#8220;positioned itself in a sweet spot&#8221; between traditional branded IT vendors such as Dell (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>), Hewlett-Packard Enterprise (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPE#NYSE">HPE</a>) and contract manufacturers like Quanta.
The firm noted that while Supermicro has shown impressive growth, its valuation was impacted by past performance inconsistencies and internal control issues, which caused delayed SEC filings and auditor changes. These problems have since been resolved with no misconduct found.

The company reported quarterly earnings of 31 cents per share, missing the analyst consensus estimate of 50 cents by 38%. Its quarterly revenue of $4.6 billion also fell short of the analyst consensus estimate of $5.42 billion by 15.1%.
CEO Charles Liang said the company isn&#8217;t providing fiscal 2026 guidance due to tariff-related uncertainty, noting that "economic uncertainty and tariff impacts may have a short-term impact,&#8221; reported CNBC.
Despite these financial setbacks, Raymond James remains optimistic about Supermicro&#8217;s future, particularly due to its robust position in the AI-optimized infrastructure sector. The firm&#8217;s bullish stance is further supported by Supermicro&#8217;s plans to expand&nbsp;its U.S. manufacturing to produce&nbsp;1,500 liquid-cooled AI racks per&nbsp;month.
SMCI stock surged 16.02% to close at $38.89 on Tuesday. On a year-to-date basis, it soared over 29%.
SMCI holds a momentum rating of 40.25% and a growth rating of 93.38%, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SMCI" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga&#8217;s Proprietary Edge Rankings</a>.
