Well, everytime when Microsoft drops, there is always those so called ( self promoted) specialist said Microsoft will continue drop all the way to the ground. Are these guys really so sure about their predictions ? Well, not quite so. Why did that guy just short 1 MM shars of MSFT right after he sold his long at $99 ? Because he is not sure at all !!!!Then why did he continue spreading horrible stories about Microsoft on this thread ? Well, selfishness, he wants to take advantage of people's fear to push the stock down , so that he can buy Microsoft at lower price , so from another point of view, this guy is very bullish about Microsoft , but just because of greediness, and selfishness, he wants to make more, so he want to push down the stock . However, they will never succeed, just look at the chart of Microsoft's past , then you will know !!!!

Blankmind: No wonder they call you blankmind on this thread! In response to your comment of being a millionaire "I am a millionaire" and I made my money from the ground up on my own by "Daytrading". I do also play earnings runs, especially when they say they will atleast meet expectations. MSFT below 80 was a nobrainer going into earnings season, just look at the 1 yr chart. I also bot msft at 90 wednesday and sold at 91 1/2 into the gap last Thursday morning. Someone buying 100 shares like you do has to hold long term to make any meaningful money. I never buy less than 1000 shares of anything and when msft was in the 130 to 140 trading range last year I made so many points I actually lost count. I prefer to trade stocks in a upward trend & that elininates msft for now.
