Sounds like you should buy some MSFT
since you are quite obviously in love
with the company. I would also suggest
you shift over to a bullish MSFT thread,
since this is "WHEN TO SHORT"--if I
wanted to have to defend my position
I could visit any of the other MSFT
topics. Are you aware what MSFT's
market capitilization is! No company
is worth that much--especially at the
end of a bull market, with the specter
of global currency devaluation. Global
equity depreciation is already in
progress--see SE Asia. The US and
European markets are next. In short,
I am a bear, and MSFT is as good a
short pick as anything.

Now is an excellent time to short
Microsoft--not only could one get
some profit from declining MSFT shares,
but even if MSFT tracks the market in
general we may see it drop. I see also
an opportunitiy to short some of the
indexes--especially the Dow transports,
after it runs up a bit more as crude
falls a bit more.
