The whisper number of 61c will become about 63c in two weeks (that is how whisper numbers move). MSFT has to deliver about 65 - 66c and also has to give at least moderately positive outlook to to keep the stock where it is i.e. at 140 and at a trailing PE of 64 inclusive of this Q EPS. JohnD, MSFT has to blow away the earnings estimates just to keep its stock at around 140. GET SERIOUS!!! The "whisper number" can get to 61 or above depending on how much of a run up we see in MSFT. If we see 170 by earnings -- yea I could imagine a whisper number of 63. You should have considered staying "100%" in MSFT (you are too funny) as you stated in your earlier post #13782 and your post of couple of weeks ago when you were concerned about being 100 % in MSFT ----- you crack me up!!!!!
