Does anybody know when in July Microsoft's next earnings report comes out? Is it before or after the July options expirations? I'm thinking of selling some July 110 calls if MSFT reaches 105 this week. Logos

I never guess what Microsoft will do short term, although I do believe that Win98 (which was originally not a big deal) has now become a big deal. It is expected to be the most purchased software this year and, indeed is expected to have sold half a million copies by tomorrow evening (!). Thanks to the Dept of Jealousy I guess. At any rate I am somewhat concerned about the P/E (I know that sounds stupid for these days) because it is traditionally 50 not 68. Anyway here is a great URL for looking at past pricing and figuring what you think. tradepbs.com Click on historical prices and name the company and time frame you want. Good luck: Freeus
