Until MSFT can decide what to do with the billions of dollars in cash (that are literally wasting away on their balance sheet), I don't think there will be much more institutional demand for MSFT stock then we have at the moment. If MSFT's management can't figure out how to return the money to shareholders or how to invest the money in the company's future, then I don't want to own the stock. Until they can get a clue about how to use their excess cash flow, then I think it's wise to stay away from them. The cash keeps rolling in and it just sits there. That's no way to run a company, imo. EDIT: this has nothing to do with the number of shares outstanding, btw.
