Why is MSFT stock up for the day and for the week? Shouldn't this majorly affect their revenue?

  The stock is supposed to reflect the discounted value of all future cash flows. In the grand scheme of Microsoft's Infinite Revenue Machine, having Word off the market for a month or so while they figure out a workaround really doesn't make much of a dent.

    So no one is worried it will be off the market permanently? I thought investors were prone to panic?

      Microsoft is a company made of very smart people; they're not going to let one of their flagship products simply disappear.

      No; other people read the article, and have heard the news that Microsoft plans to have a modified (compliant) version for sale as soon as this injunction takes effect.
