Is Microsoft’s Price Action Encouraging?

As some of you may know, I own Microsoft Corporation (MSFT). I’ve discussed my position before. It’s been a tough ride with this one. And I’m sure I’m not alone in terms of such opinion.

Microsoft has a reputation for being a frustrating stock. It looks like a value; it seems as if it should be trading higher. But as soon as you purchase the shares, they oftentimes disappoint. At least, that’s been my experience.

Microsoft: Should I Add To My Position?

Posted on February 14th, 2011 in India Shares, Microsoft, MSFT, NOK, Nokia, smartphone

Filed under: , ,

So, I’m sitting here in front of my screen, watching the market action. Kind of a boring day, at least for my portfolio. In particular, one of my holdings, Microsoft (MSFT), is acting in a very boring manner. I was hoping to see some interest on the part of Wall Street in that name today following the stock’s recent weakness, but alas, there is none to be had. At the time of this writing, shares are down fractionally to $27.15.

Investors have been digesting the news concerning the deal between the maker of Windows and Nokia (NOK). The plan is to generate some competition in the smartphone business. Success with this initiative would be nice for shareholders of both companies.

Nokia Focuses on Microsoft

Posted on February 14th, 2011 in AAPL, Apple, GOOG, India Shares, inthenews, inthrnews, Microsoft, MSFT, NOK, Nokia, Stephen Elop

Filed under: ,

NokiaWhen Stephen Elop became CEO of Nokia (NOK), there was some optimism. Would this outsider – who was a former executive at Microsoft (MSFT) – shock the slumbering organization into action? Well, based on the stock price over the past week, the answer is “no.”

It seems that Elop is trying to remake Nokia into, well, Microsoft. True, Microsoft is a great company – but it is certainly not a model of renewal. And the company is desperate to get a big deal in the mobile space.

Microsoft and Nokia Join to Build a New Smartphone

NokiaThis is probably one of the most interesting stories of the Internet revolution. Microsoft (MSFT) jumped out the starting gate with its Windows operating system and took the world by storm. Then for some unknown reason, Microsoft missed the entire search engine revolution and Google (GOOG) raced to first place. Now Microsoft has again missed the next leg — the iPhone and iPad revolution, and Apple (AAPL) holds first place in this segment.

Nokia (NOK) was a pioneer in the smartphone revolution, but with Apple’s drive to the top, Nokia lost its momentum. Once Nokia had 50% of the handset market. Now that share has fallen to just 29%. It’s hard to believe but Microsoft has only 2% of the global phone software market.
