I’ll sell Microsoft stock for 15$ in 2011, anybody interested?
MS is trading on 30$ now. If anyone is looking for a deal let me know 
You maybe heard about the proposed Microsoft Yahoo! deal worth 45 billion dollars… Well mark my words, I said it before and I will say it again. We are witnessing a slow and inevitable downfall of a giant. Two in fact because they will pull each other into that deep deep abyss where only AOL and Time Warner dear entering. Why?
It’s simple. Do you think Yahoo! people want to work for Microsoft? Of course not or else they would have already done so. In their struggle to beat Google, I am sure MS was offering nice packages to anyone who would like to jump the ship. So the best and brightest in Yahoo will quit and look elsewhere.
Do you think the big-brains at MS will be eager to acquire and implement Yahoo’s systems and ditch whatever they have been working on for last couple of years?
And do you think users who got already pissed about Yahoo buying for example Flickr will be ecstatic to having to put now with their Live logins MS BS and other crap?
Finally, do you think the stockholders will be happy with the almost inevitable decline of value?
Heck, when no ones seems to be happy about this, how can this new venture be a Google killer?
Once again Fake Steve Jobs nails the issue right on the head.
Me and my friend Michael went to see Ballmer aka Monkey Boy once in Copenhagen. I can tell you that if I ever had any doubts about the future of Microsoft before that, after the speech I would rather by Enron stock and hope for the best than put up with that bullshit they were trying to feed us.
So if anyone is interested in a little forward agreement, I would gladly sell MS stock in 2011 for 15$. That’s a loss of 50% in 3 years. Radical? Well, let’s see about that
The only thing that can happen now is that MS will smarten up and back out once the alleged takeover bid is not going to be approved by the anti-trust. Then MS could turn Yahoo into its bitch anyway because by that time Yahoo stock might be in dumps anyway. But let’s see. I was wrong (many times) before
