Toy, I don't mean to brag but while you had been wasting your time and energy being anti-MSFT, I was busy buying and profiting from way out of the money call options leading into earnings--all last year.

Even if you had spent $2000 last April or July (I am not sure which month it was)--could have bought options at 1/8 per share and sold for over $10. How much would you have profitted on Microsoft?

$180,000

You know it could have been more if lets say you spent maybe about $10,000.
Too bad---you wasted all your time. Maybe this quarter might give you a good opportunity to buy a "lottery ticket"--leading into the split or earnings. Will it be a winning ticket---who knows!!Better to spend your lottery money on MSFT than a Casino in my opinion. You know the industry and how MSFT has made it. You should have known better my friend. I only have loyalty to MSFT because I made money in it. Period.
Just my opinion of course and I am not recommending you buy options. Even in stock people have made a lot of money. Of course I am not recommending you buy Microsoft stock but am just telling you that if you had---you would have made a lot of moooola!!

This last month was my worst for Investment in MSFT options but March is going to be much different. I can sense it. Just have one more hurdle tomorrow.

LOL
