Microsoft stock price steady near $510 as bullish trend survives SharePoint security risk
Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) is trading around $509.96, maintaining its upward trajectory within a steeply rising channel on the 4-hour chart. The stock has consistently formed higher highs and higher lows since early May, with dynamic support from a tightly aligned set of exponential moving averages.
Highlights
- Microsoft stock holds near $510 despite SharePoint zero-day vulnerability
- Spoofing attack leads to urgent security updates for on-premise SharePoint servers
- Price remains inside ascending channel with next resistance near $525
The 20-EMA at $504.14 and the 50-EMA at $492.70 continue to guide short-term structure, suggesting that despite minor pullbacks, overall momentum remains bullish. However, fresh cybersecurity concerns have entered the picture. Over the weekend, Microsoft confirmed “active attacks” targeting its SharePoint server software used by government agencies and corporations.

The company emphasized that SharePoint Online within Microsoft 365 remained unaffected. A security update for SharePoint Subscription Edition has been released, while patches for 2016 and 2019 versions are in progress. Microsoft advised clients unable to install protection updates to disconnect their servers from the internet temporarily.
Zero-day vulnerability raises scrutiny but stock holds ground
The threat, described as a “zero-day” exploit, reportedly allowed attackers to conduct spoofing operations over the network, posing as trusted organizations. The FBI acknowledged the issue and confirmed it is coordinating with federal and private partners. While the scale of the attack remains unclear, initial reports suggest tens of thousands of servers were at risk. Despite this, Microsoft stock has shown resilience, with price holding above key short-term levels and consolidating near the median line of the rising channel.
On the upside, resistance looms near the $520–$525 zone, aligned with the channel’s top boundary. A breakout above this zone could open the path toward $540, especially if supported by strong volume and broader tech sentiment. Downside remains limited as long as the price holds above the 50-EMA. Traders are watching the $502–$504 region closely, as a break below may invite a retest of the $473–$475 support cluster.
In prior coverage, Microsoft was consolidating near the $495 region with bullish channel alignment intact. The current extension confirms that the broader structure has remained supportive, and the technical breakout toward $510 is consistent with that outlook. Investors should monitor $525 as the next key target.
