Looks like many of the insiders got out in the mid 80's recently. I guess fair value to be around $45. I bet MSFT tanks more tomorrow. Tom

>>the Ballmer comments to be totally reckless for an company officer and insider to make - especially by someone with his stature. By trying to impress journalists with his equity analysis skills, he totally forgot what his primary responsibility is - fulfilling his fiduciary duty with the shareholders. This was not it, by a long shot. If you're a shareholder, there's enough ground here to threaten/follow with a complaint (see bottom) or suit. It's a mistake you don't expect a seasoned brass to make, << Uptick, Thanks for you insight and it made much sense. Best Wishes Frank

"If the market were to drop 30%" target companies would also be cheaper. "no longer consider[ed]...a cutting-edge place to work" because ballmer said stock price too high? "Guess where the stock price needs to go" earnings will drive the stock--not ballmer's words. "With Billions in MSFT paper profit" guess he's not as dumb as people say. "massive buyings of MSFT long-dated puts" how do you know that? "Address: Investor Relations Department" complain to investor relations?--you must be joking. "or suit" at $500 per attorney hour?--get serious. "but, as a trader" one must be nimble. see posts by sir francis drake. regards
