How has Software - Infrastructure moved against S&P 500?
The line below covers 5.2 years. Over the most recent two of them this industry is 29% ahead of S&P 500. Earnings across its companies grew 14% on average over the last four reported quarters. It has been ahead of S&P 500 on a rolling three-month view for 14 weeks running.

Participation is not spreading downward this month; the larger companies are still carrying most of it.
Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 114 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.
Sector relative strength · before individual stocks
Is Software - Infrastructure outperforming S&P 500?
Software - Infrastructure has underperformed S&P 500 by 3.3% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a lead of 13.3%. 16 of 27 covered companies currently beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Fortinet, Inc. is the strongest against the sector itself at +38.4%.

4-Factor Sector Score
An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.
Corpay, Inc. has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 82% evidence confidence.
Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.
F5, Inc. has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is guarded: positive earnings, positive 5–60% three-year EPS growth, and a positive P/E are required.
Decision use: Acceleration candidate, not a confirmed leader: earnings are strong but sector-relative strength is -30.1% and the one-year return is -19.9%. Do not upgrade until sector-relative strength is above zero and another reported period confirms growth.
Decision use: Fill the missing evidence before acting; the ranking is deliberately pulled toward neutral.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability
Microsoft Corporation has the highest Revenue among the 28 Software - Infrastructure companies compared here, at $318,273 million. Oracle Corporation is next at $67,358 million. CoreWeave, Inc. has the highest Revenue growth at the 100% top of the scoring scale, so level and change sit with different companies. Its Revenue series carries 19 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.
What the numbers say: Microsoft Corporation is the scale leader at $318,273 million, 372.5% ahead of Oracle Corporation. CoreWeave, Inc.'s growth is stored at the ≥100% scoring cap; the uncapped TTM change is 130% from a $6,228 million base, with 10 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

Investor read: Microsoft Corporation is the scale benchmark; CoreWeave, Inc. is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.
This conclusion weakens if: Microsoft Corporation's growth falls below CoreWeave, Inc.'s for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.
Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

Investor read: Use the CAPEX rank as a diligence queue. Verify commissioning, utilization, cash conversion and post-investment ROCE before treating spend as value creation.
This conclusion weakens if: CAPEX rises without higher utilization, operating cash flow or incremental returns.
CAPEX is cash spent on property, plant, equipment and other reported capital assets. CAPEX intensity divides that spend by revenue; high intensity is a reinvestment signal, not proof that the reinvestment will earn attractive returns.

Before the conclusion · check the blind spots
What can make this comparison misleading?
This Software - Infrastructure comparison names 4 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 28 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.
Keep these limits visible
A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.

AHEAD means the company is beating the index by 5% or more over three months. LAGGING, FUNDAMENTALS UP means it is 20% or more behind over a year while its trailing twelve-month earnings grew 20% or more. Both rules are fixed and applied the same way in every sector.
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 28 Software - Infrastructure companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-07-28. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

These 18 answers restate the Software - Infrastructure comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 28 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-07-28. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.
Which Software - Infrastructure company is the biggest?
Microsoft Corporation is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of $318,273 million, ahead of Oracle Corporation at $67,358 million. That covers 27 of 28 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.
Which Software - Infrastructure company is growing fastest?
CoreWeave, Inc. has the fastest revenue growth at 100% year on year, across 27 of 28 comparable companies. Fast growth off a small base is not the same as proven scale — check whether the rate holds across several quarters on the chart above before treating it as a trend.
Which Software - Infrastructure company has the best profit margins?
VeriSign, Inc. has the highest operating margin at 68.5%, from 28 of 28 comparable companies. Palantir Technologies Inc. shows the biggest recent improvement, at +26.3 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.
Which Software - Infrastructure company makes the most profit?
Microsoft Corporation earns the most, at $125,216 million of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 27 of 28 comparable companies. DigitalOcean Holdings, Inc. has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.
Which Software - Infrastructure company earns the highest return on capital?
VeriSign, Inc. leads on return on capital employed at 1141.8%, across 28 of 28 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.
Which Software - Infrastructure stock is the cheapest?
On guarded PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. screens cheapest at 0.52×. Only 12 of 28 companies pass the comparability guard, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.
Which Software - Infrastructure company has the strongest balance sheet?
Toast, Inc. carries the lowest comparable gross debt at $17 million, from 28 of 28 companies. Absolute rupee debt alone does not settle it, because company scale differs — net debt and debt-to-equity in the chart above carry more information, and a very low-debt balance sheet can also mean under-investment.
Which Software - Infrastructure company is investing most in new capacity?
Microsoft Corporation reports the largest capital spending at $30,876 million, across 28 of 28 companies. Spending consumes cash before it earns anything, so treat the ranking as a diligence queue: check commissioning, utilisation and the return earned on the completed assets before reading spend as value creation.
Is the Software - Infrastructure sector beating the market?
Software - Infrastructure has underperformed S&P 500 by 3.3% over the last 52 weeks and 13.3% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 16 of 27 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.
Which Software - Infrastructure stock has the strongest price momentum?
Fortinet, Inc. has the strongest relative strength against S&P 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.
Which Software - Infrastructure company scores highest for research priority?
Corpay, Inc. scores 63.8 out of 100 with 82% evidence confidence, from 22.8 points on growth and earnings, 12.3 on capital efficiency, 13.5 on valuation and 15.2 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.

Why are some values on this page blank?

Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.
Is this investment advice?
