t2000, it looks like you are still very bullish on intc despite the fantastic run it has had the past 2-3 months. why do you suppose msft has failed to mount any kind of charge that would compare to intc?

if you look back at where msft was trading in january after the earnings report ($175), the stock has actually not done a whole lot since then, up only about 5% while the dow and naz are up much more.

if you were lucky enough to pick up msft when it dipped into the mid $70s in may, then obviously if looks like msft has had quite a nice run itself but over the last 7 months, that really is not the case.

having been a follower of msft for many many years, i have noticed that this stock is capable of making up ground very quickly, and in fact a big chunk of msft's annual gains often occurs over a very short period of time. with that in mind i would not be surprised if a 50% - 75% move was on the horizon within the next 3-6 months.

but if you do look at the 5% increase over the period i have mentioned, it is probably one of msft's longest periods of underperformance relative to the market.
