How's MSFT doing for you these days?
"In 2004, Microsoft earned $0.75 a share. Over the past year, it pulled down $2.10 per share. That's 18.7% earnings growth per year. Extraordinary. Yet Microsoft shares trade lower today than they did for all of 2004. Dividends provided some return, but shareholders have essentially been handed a donut for a company that's blown the lights out on earnings."
