Toy, Bitter? No, but I'm not enjoying today's market. Given recent global events, the market's reaction is not surprising. However the name of the game is to make money. I have owned MSFT since 1987 and given the state of affairs, the stock isn't acting that bad. I am not passively sitting by and watching my gains disappear. For the last month I have been actively and successfully trading options in MSFT. Whenever a trading pattern occurs where I can discern the short term direction of the stock price, I'll buy calls or puts. I do not close my eyes to legitimate and thoughtful negative Microsoft posts as there are some that make me rethink my position. However I do close my eyes to most of your posts, because they are written specifically to bash Microsoft and you admit the extent of your investment experience, Canadian penny stocks. If you want any credibility from investors on this thread, put some money on the line. I wouldn't care if it's long or short. Until then you are like a ship passing in the night.
