Microsoft Stock Drops After Earnings Report

SEATTLE (Reuters) - Microsoft Corp.(NasdaqNM:MSFT - news) stock dropped on Wednesday in heavy trading a day
after the giant software company posted better-than-expected earnings, but sounded a note of caution on the future.

Microsoft was off 6 at 109-5/16 in midday trading on Nasdaq, where it was the most active issue with more than 27 million
shares changing hands in the first two hours of trading.

Investors likely were disappointed at how much of Microsoft's quarterly profits came from its equity portfolio rather than
sales, said Bill Meehan, the chief market analyst at Cantor Fitzgerald in Darien, Conn.
