Stephan, Can you tell us your positions on MSFT. Are you
holding Jan high strike options or such. You were making
quite a bold set of predictions.
- Will be up +5 almost everyday this week
- Settlement will happen by Dec end.
- Will be at 150 by Jan.
What gives into this level of blind optimism? I wouldn't
bet on MSFT hitting 100 trailing PE anytime soon. Highest
it has is 75-80 PE or where it is now. Also, after earnings
the stock normally gets into selling pressure from Gates
and Allen doing their quarterly trimming.

I still see year end closing around 110 or so and till
Jan earnings around 120. 125 max. Then it is likely to
slide down unless the earnings are way much blowout. Like
say they report 60c or such. But that is unlikely.,imo

Yes, I see it now in some of the later articles. I don't know about the buying opportunity part, but it does seem to me that his move has no dark implications for MSFT.

JMHO, of course.
