>>? Should we exclude the largest company by market cap in the US (world?) from the market cap-weighted index of the exchange on which it trades? <<

I'm only saying that this particular stock issue isn't worth what people are paying for it. There were a lot of people inside the company when I was there who felt the same way. Obviously, when we acted upon those opinions we got burnt.

You will never convince me that this issue has value anywhere in line with what people are paying for it.

It looks so artificial to me that it screams "scam!!"

MSFT isn't the only culprit here either. They're just a great example so I use them.
