The rumor surrounding puts seems a little too "convenient" considering Microsoft has a stock buyback program with lots of cash to burn.

I'm seeing a way too much negative sentiment in the face of positive news, which makes me extremely suspicious.

Understand the politics, the players, and the plays...and don't listen to the fear. At this point, Microsoft and the PC player stocks have priced in high-tech growth which is flat or negative.

What if it is true that Europe is slow during the third quarter, as is often the case? Who is betting on that? No one.
