Message post from Yahoo message thread says Mr. Allen said he is done selling. Any truth to this? He now holds about 2.9% only. If this is true, I would think he wants to maintain at about 3% holding. " Did anyone else catch the news reports last night that Paul Allen has announced he completed his sale of Microsoft Stock? Amazing that MSFT had such strong support during the sale. Should be up from here"

The "Bush effect" means that if Bush is elected, the special interests to whom he has pledged his allegiance, like Big Oil, Tobacco, Military Contractors, and Microsoft, will see their share prices rise as Bush pushes to ease government restrictions on their industries and open government purchasing contracts. However, many companies and industries that haven't opened their pockets to his campaign and his party rightly fear another four years of GOP control of both the Executive and Legislative branches, and may see share price declines.
