<p>With <strong>Microsoft </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) preparing to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/previews/25/07/46698434/microsoft-q4-preview-can-the-tech-giant-beat-forecasts-for-10th-straight-quarter">report fourth-quarter results after markets close today</a>, expectations are high, both for the tech giant and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">ETFs surfing its AI wave</a>. Wall Street analysts are estimating revenue of $73.8 billion and earnings per share of close to $3.37. </p>
<p>Azure&#8217;s cloud growth is expected to be 34–35%, with much of it attributed to the company&#8217;s aggressive expansion in generative AI, according to Investors Business Daily.</p>
<p>While, however, investors scrutinize Microsoft&#8217;s figures, AI-themed ETFs are already getting a tailwind.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AI ETFs In Focus</h2>
<p>Thematic ETFs such as the <strong>Global X Artificial Intelligence &amp; Technology ETF</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIQ#NASDAQ">AIQ</a>) and <strong>ROBO Global Artificial Intelligence ETF </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/THNQ#NYSE">THNQ</a>) have recently gained popularity, with Microsoft frequently being among their top holdings. AIQ, for example, has Microsoft in its highest 10 and has risen 3% in the last month and 17% year-to-date, mirroring the wider turnaround in AI sentiment. THNQ is up more than 3% in the last month and 16% YTD, although the fund is diversified with mostly equal weightages given to each holding.</p>
<p>The other significant ETF, <strong>Dan Ives&#8217; Wedbush AI Revolution ETF</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVES#NYSE">IVES</a>), which launched in June, also has Microsoft as one of its main exposure points. Although still in its infancy, IVES has already collected almost $400 million in AUM, capitalizing on the AI boom story.</p>

CIO Cullen Rogers Explains</a></strong></p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why Azure Matters To ETFs</h2>
<p>Azure&#8217;s performance has become a proxy for Microsoft&#8217;s execution on enterprise AI demand. With offerings such as Copilot for Office 365 and collaborations with OpenAI, Azure is rapidly emerging as the heartbeat of Microsoft&#8217;s AI monetization plan. Any upside surprise in the growth of Azure might trigger a ripple effect in AI ETFs with heavy Microsoft allocations or those concentrated in enterprise AI plays.</p>
<p>On the other hand, any indication of slowdown, particularly with continued cost pressures, would put ETFs with significant exposure to the stock under heavy pressure.</p>
<p>In brief, Microsoft&#8217;s earnings are a read on the overall AI investing universe. And ETFs, especially thematic AI indexes, are right in the middle.</p>

What's Next: Laureate Education's Earnings Preview

<p>If you recently invested in <strong>Pheton Holdings Ltd</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PTHL#NASDAQ">PTHL</a>), The Bear Cave warns that you may have fallen victim to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/short-sellers">pump-and-dump scheme</a>.</p>
<p><strong>What To Know: </strong>The Bear Cave released a <a href="https://thebearcave.substack.com/p/problems-at-pheton-holdings-pthl">report</a> on Chinese health care company Pheton Holdings on Tuesday, which sparked a massive sell-off in shares. The weakness has continued on Wednesday following the short seller&#8217;s stark warning. </p>
<p>The Bear Cave warned Tuesday morning that overseas groups appeared to be manipulating the stock price of Pheton and investors were &#8220;at risk of a near-term, severe stock collapse.&#8221; The collapse has played out over the past two trading sessions, with shares tumbling more than 90% on Tuesday and being halted multiple times amid aggressive selling. </p>
<p>The short-focused research firm alleged that &#8220;overseas scammers&#8221; were running up the price of Pheton based on false rumors that <strong>Gilead Sciences </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GILD#NASDAQ">GILD</a>) was preparing to acquire or partner with the company.</p>
<p>&#8220;These unsubstantiated rumors match a familiar pattern in which overseas stock scammers promote tightly held U.S.-listed Chinese companies on the basis of spurious M&amp;A rumors, only for them to later experience sudden intraday stock collapses, often falling 90% or more,&#8221; the short seller wrote in the report.</p>
<p>With Pheton Holdings shares down more than 96% over the past two sessions, Benzinga has reached out to the company for comment on the report. </p>
<p>The Bear Cave alleged that the scammers used WhatsApp trading groups to promote a potential tie-up between Pheton and Gilead, noting that the people running the trading groups were calling for an announcement before Aug. 6. </p>
<p>An individual who was involved in one of the stock groups told The Bear Cave that the alleged scammers &#8220;pressured&#8221; members to buy shares of the stock and send screenshots to confirm their holdings. </p>
<p>The short seller flagged a pattern of overseas scammers following this playbook for other Chinese companies trading on the Nasdaq. </p>
<p>According to The Bear Cave, related groups reportedly ran similar pump-and-dump schemes on <strong>Ostin Technology Group Co Ltd</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OST#NASDAQ">OST</a>), which hit 52-week highs of $9.40 in June before plummeting to around 8 cents at last check. </p>
<p>Earlier this year, &#8220;overseas scammers&#8221; made similar acquisition claims related to <strong>China Liberal Education Holdings</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLEU#NASDAQ">CLEU</a>)&nbsp;before the stock tanked about 98% in one day. <strong>Jayud Global Logistics Ltd</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JYD#NASDAQ">JYD</a>) also fell about 95% in April after surging on acquisition rumors, the short seller said. </p>
<p>Pheton Holdings&#8217; annual revenue has declined from about $680,000 in 2022 to approximately $448,000 last year. The company also reported a net loss of around $661,000 for 2024, according to the short seller report. </p>
<p><strong>PTHL Price Action:</strong> <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/PTHL">Pheton Holdings shares</a> were down 28.5%, trading at $1.18 at the time of publication Wednesday. The stock opened for trading on Tuesday at $31.25, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.</p>
