Wish I had shares in Microsoft. Will have to wait until I get my bonus in work

You probably should wait for the next world economy crisis and buy right in the middle of it to get cheap prices. It is never intelligent to buy at a peak, especially if the the current near future doesn't look too bright for that company because the overall PC market is dying much faster than expected, Microsoft has almost no market share in smartphones and tables and the X1 doesn't run nearly as good as the 360 in both the US and worldwide markets. If I'd get a bonus now, I would consider buing put stock warrants instead.

It is too late to buy shares right now, this should have been done when Ballmer announced that he will step down because this was the only reason for the shares to rise.
