MICROSOFT IS A BUY AT THESE LEVELS

I anticipate some serious bloodletting in the fall (or even in late August), but suspect there will be another wave of optimism in the early summer and Microsoft is moving into undervalued territory at present levels (around $22.55). (And, if one wants to make money in this market, it is strongly recommended to stick with the cash flow giants, like Microsoft and big pharma (Pfizer), where the potential for disaster is less, even if Ballmer seems a bit on the wiggy side.) Use limit orders and low ball it (if your due diligence tells you that buying is a correct, short-term, strategy then figure out a low price to enter or accumulate and be patient). NB: In this market, consider every buy a short term trade.
