Holy freefall Batmat!

I know this is a fairly common scenario but it makes me grouchy!

I'll bet that many of the sellers to today are those who have bought in recently and are taking a loss. It is hard to imagine loosing money on MSFT but these people find a way to do it. Life is hard but it is a lot harder when you are stupid!

Why would you sell today if you didn't have to? Might get back in next week below 100 but that is unlikely.

Alan, long term fine. But short term it is very weak being
down about 10 on 46 million volume. This is a bit unusual
to drop 9-10% on the very next day after EPS on such a huge
volume. I think the short term down draft is very strong and
will wipe my Jan 95 calls and will likely won't stop till
it drops to 90-91. Worst case low may be 85 - 88; where
softy bought 38 million shares last Q.
