<< hey guys, the p/e is over 52 >> Not a good way to look at it (unless you want to lose money on your short). Forward PE is around 31 and if you take out the $10 in cash and investments you get a PE of around 26. That's cheap for a Dow stock, especially since MSFT is just about the only Dow stock with great growth potential ahead of it. You are simply shorting betting that the market will fall. You are betting that the economy falters further. There is no MSFT specific reason to short at this time. IMO, Dave
