<Reg, what's your view on Microsoft's current valuation? Is it overvalued, undervalued or fairly priced? What are its short-term, medium-term and long-term prospects? How do Microsoft's prospects compare to Netscape's prospects?>
Most of your questions have been answered at rcmfinancial.com (although it does need to be updated, I will not do that here, but I will notify you when I update my site's analysis). Since it is a decent amount of work, I will not rehash, but ask you to read it. For a quick recap on valuation: - If risk free rate = 6.4% with low end growth, fair valuation is $273 - If risk free rate = 8.2% with low end growth, fair valuation is $113 - If risk free rate = 10% with low end growth, fair valuation is $79.86
- If risk free rate = 6.4% with moderate growth, fair valuation is $342 - If risk free rate = 8.2% with moderate growth, fair valuation is $150 - If risk free rate = 10% with moderate growth, fair valuation is $97
