D: All Things Digital Conferences
Since (Q3 of 2007), management has acted in an overaggressive and almost panicky fashion regarding its online offering. First, it sought to acquire Yahoo and then after that failed, it announced extremely high internal investment requirements to pursue this ‘huge’ opportunity (read: ‘Google-envy’). We doubt the opportunity is what they say it is and wish MSFT focused on its core strength: software. The CEO is a very smart and very wealthy man. Perhaps, he is so wealthy that he has bigger ideas and aspirations than making MSFT’s shareholders wealthier. We’ve given up on MSFT for now as we feel better investing in companies where management at least appears to be trying to work for shareholders.
