During the 90s I used to check on a few stocks each day. I always wanted to invest in Microsoft. Hell their stock didn't even do that bad during the whole anti-trust suit. If you invested in Microsoft during the late 80s you'd be fucking rich with all those stock splits... I might not like Microsoft that much as a company but I wouldn't mind making money from them... Too bad I never have any capital to invest in companies. I would have invested in Microsoft, Google (day 1 then sold around the 500/600 barrier), Netflix and Nintendo.

Mcrosoft did well in the 80s-90s, but took 10 years off in the 2000s.

The best investment of the last 20 years is still Apple for those lucky enough that got in.

Here are the last 5 years :

 

Keep in mind the stock was 14$ in 2003 so the growth has actually been consistent for the last 8 years.......

Quick question, on what website do you get those graphs?

Still off topic: wouldn't be interessting to have a predictino thread for stock price in the short term (say until the end of this year) ? There is, of course, a lot of uncertainty, but could be fun.
