MSFT's technicals are exceptional strong at the moment. That is what you get when the fundamentals are so strong!! Is it any wonder? Can't see any other stock come close to it, IMHO. I just think people are starting to "wise up", finally. Now they are realizing what this company is about. They will buy on the dips. We have noticed a lot of profit takers (myself included) on April call options causing the implied volatility to drop. I am expecting that volatility to increase going into the next 2 weeks. The stock performance since the start of the trial should have been the indicator that says it all! Company's of the past like IBM and big tobacco were not as strong as Microsoft and that is why their stocks went nowhere. I bet a lot of mutual fund managers wanted to get out thinking the same thing would happen to MSFT. This is another example of those predictors of the future based upon the past---reminds of those analysts (very highly paid) expecting a big crash in the markets since Dow 3000. They did their research also based upon past events.
