johnd---This sounds like the April johnd, rather than the May johnd. What gives? Also, let me ask you a question. I haven't seen anyone respond to my research that indicates April 7th is the date on which MSFT can commence buybacks, not June 7th or July 7th. What if they have been buying for the past 6 weeks? And the stock still fell from 90 to close to 60. I still think there is downward movement before it climbs. 120 by year end seems very unlikely to me.
