Run? Hell. Not BIll or Steve. How about their investors and all those employees that banked on high stock value as part of the contracts and capital worth. M$ devs are payed fairly low (as scale goes) and rely on the stock packages they get from M$ for a large amount of their net worth. Given the Steve Ballmer just cashed out a fair amount of his M$ stock (get some while there's still a descent amount of liquidity) one might get the impression that a trend may be developing. Now, I expect to see the turning of the screw as the market value begins to wittle away and their employees start to fade back one by one. Cheers, Curtis.

And it's a good thing that Ballmer sold when he did. Just did a quick check of their stock, and it is starting to drop. Not much but the direction is unmistakeable.. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of folks..

And the 5 year chart with a regression channel. the slope keeps getting steeper to the negative every time I've checked over the last year. :) The slow burn is on. Cheers, Curtis.
Trend indeed. In America there are special reporting requirements for
company insiders who want to sell their stock. They must fill out
special forma and wait 6 months to sell their stock. Even more
regulations apply if they own more than 5 percent of the stock.
Certain stock analysts specialize in studying these reports.
Lets see what we have.
1) insider quits M$ after riding out the shakedown operation of the
previous presidency.
2) former insider cashes out stock
3) Rumors of spinning financial reports to cover previous loses and
settlements by M$
4) general trend down for tech sector for several years.
Q1 Why quit & sell now?
Q2 What is next for M$
Q3 Is the lose of M$ an opportunity or serious challange to fill a
comming void in the Market?
Q4 Are we ready?
