Dave, he is correct to worry about it. After all, the stock was at 40 a few months ago...

My nephew writes code for MSFT.He is not too enthused about the outlook.Not that anyone at his level would know anything but he's worried about his 34 dollar options.

You know what he is worried about; the possibility of an adverse ruling from the Court of Appeals. Adverse (in this case) meaning that they accept whatever the lower court did and not making any changes to Judge Jackson's orders.
That could hurt his $34 options.
(chances of that bad outcome are slim but you never know)

Of course, high technology workers are well aware of what happened to their employee stock options when the market started to tank. That is something that makes employees less enthused about the outlook. He does for the best technology company.
