**Oracle Corporation** [(NYSE:](https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ORCL)[ORCL](https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ORCL)) stock fell on Thursday, hitting a fresh 52-week low of $125.57. The decline comes as deepening investor anxieties over massive artificial intelligence capital expenditures and cash burn counteracted the company’s recent cloud growth metrics. The Nasdaq is down 1.43% while the S&P 500 has shed 0.42%.

## Infrastructure Spending Triggers Free Cash Flow Deficit

The hardware and software giant previously reported that its quarterly capital expenditure climbed to $16.49 billion. This surge contributed to a 162% increase in [full-year capital expenditures](https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/26/07/60461892/oracle-leads-aws-microsoft-google-in-race-to-build-japans-secret-cloud-project-to-counter-chinese-hacking-threats-report), which reached $55.7 billion. Consequently, these infrastructure investments pushed Oracle’s free cash flow to a negative $23.7 billion, weighing heavily on market sentiment despite a 47% surge in cloud revenue and a contracted backlog reaching $638 billion.

## Analyst Projections Highlight Extended Capex Risks

Prior research from BNP Paribas analyst Stefan Slowinski indicated that Oracle’s fiscal 2027 capital spending outlook remains a [primary focal point](https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/reiteration/26/06/53035425/oracles-ai-spending-bill-keeps-growing-capex-could-hit-100-billion-as-stargate-expands) for the market. Slowinski noted that capital expenditures could land between $80 billion and $100 billion as the company accelerates the development of non-Abilene Stargate campuses. BNP Paribas previously raised its fiscal 2027 capex estimate to $83 billion from $72 billion, well above the consensus estimate of approximately $60 billion.

## Leadership Transition And Sovereign Cloud Expansions

The market continues to evaluate these spending trends under new CFO **Hilary Maxson**. Concurrently, reports on Wednesday indicated Oracle is leading rivals **Amazon.com Inc.**, **Microsoft Corporation** and **Alphabet Inc.** to provide high-security, air-gapped cloud services to Japan.

## Oracle Stock: Critical Levels To Watch

The longer-term chart remains decisively bearish: Oracle is trading 15.2% below its 20-day SMA, 29.9% below its 50-day SMA, and 34.5% below its 200-day SMA. The 20-day SMA sitting below the 50-day SMA reinforces the downtrend, and the death cross that formed in January (50-day below 200-day) keeps the bigger-picture trend pressure intact.

Momentum is the key near-term story, with RSI at 27.42—an oversold reading that often signals the selling has become stretched and can set up sharp countertrend bounces.

**ORCL Stock Price Activity:** Oracle shares were down 5.02% at $125.84 at the time of publication on Thursday, according to [Benzinga Pro data](https://benzinga.com/services).
