A question for the board. Has MSFT ever had a negative calendar year return since it went public ? If so, when, and how negative was it. I am looking at regular, Jan '01 and '02 OTM options. Based on present volatility, it has moved +/- 30 to 50% on news developments (DOJ), not counting the affect from new product cycle that just started. I am anticipating no more than a slap on the wrist from DOJ, considering that there must be lot of political influence/peddling going on behind the doors.
