"All these predication of 120 and 130 are a bit amazing" johnd, I have read your posts on this subject with interest, and while you have a great understanding of past earnings, I think you are missing something important. Unlike most companies, not only do Microsoft's earnings increase, the P/E ratio itself has systematically increased for years at a rate of over 20% per year! Now why would the market reward Microsoft with an ever increasing P/E? The short answer is probably that Microsoft is the most important company in the world in the most important industry in the world. The posts above about Microsoft's ever growing internet presence is closer to the long answer, and much too involved to cover in a single post. Best Trading, X
