I just sold my Nintendo stock at a nice profit. I may dump some cash into MSFT... the stock may rise further with a new CEO. The big question is whether it is a "value" right now. I like undervalued stock. I think MSFT is a a solid, money making company. I just don't know if the share price should be higher.


Microsoft will always be an undervalued stock, but that doesnt mean it will rise.  You may have missed the boat.  The dividends alone make it a good hold though.

 

 


It would have been a very solid buy at $32.  I thought about picking it up when Balmer announced his retirement (around $35 at that time), but that would have been a poor decision compared to keeping my Nintendo stock which grew about 23% from then until I sold.  What I'm contemplating right now is just how valuable is MSFT?  Strategic moves into mobile seem to be really paying off and will only grow.  A new CEO may ditch XBox and increase dividends which could drive up the share price.  Could we see a $50 stock price?  I wouldn't be shocked.  It is certainly a safe stock, as the company isn't likely to fold or crash any time soon.
