This is a good time to sell shares because the best investment strategy is always to buy after a crash and to sell at a peak.

Windows 8 fails,
PC market is dying
Windows Phone fails
Xbox division is not running well and may be sold to another company soon.

The only thing that is running good for MS is Android FAT patent licences which are up to 5$ per phone using a microsoft compatible FAT file system on SDcard. Samsung and many other companies have agreed to pay for them.

That is a perfect example of the poorly informed market view that has helped keep the stock undervalued.

No. This is the microosft news section.

Its in exactly the right place.

And why wouldn't gamers be interested. The financial health of a parent company is crucial.

You cant be that naive surely?

I didnt see you in any of the more neagtive microsoft news items posted in this part of the forum saying this.... odd that isnt it.

Exactly if SNE had a massive jump, I guarentee their would be a new thread in Sony discussion talking about how Sony is finally turning it around, but as we all know that simply isn't the case.

good decision to finally release it.. rumor had it they were actually waiting to finally finish their touch version of it for windows 8 before they released the iOS version while that one was already finished.. Good to see that MS also wants to succeed on other platforms and not holding back anymore..

Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!)

That's good news. It would be terrible if they were bleeding like Sony and were selling divisions.
