I've held both CSCO and MSFT for over a decade. I believe CSCO's returns are higher. I don't track GE, so I cannot provide the long term numbers for this company. CSCO closed Jan 18, 1991 at $49, or 17 cents considering the splits, giving us a 111 fold appreciation. MSFT closed at $85.5 on the same day, or about 2.375 taking the splits into account. Since then, it's price has climbed 33 fold. Still, the big question is what company today makes the best investment vehicle. Cheers, PW.
