If someone knows why please tell me. You Know how hard is to have that drop in stocks, the normal drop for MS in the las year was 5.04%. And in the other hand Sony has been going down in stocks about 0.06% in the last year, and about an hour ago it just climb a huge 5.82% thats huge.

MS Stocks value = 29.75

Sony stock value = 29.2

Ah well. I'm sure if anything the stock falling of MS has more to do with Vista than the 360.

MS stock fell today because of mediocre Q3 results, particularly WRT Windows. This combined with the cash & stock bid for Yahoo has investors beating up the stock over short term performance/outlook.

Sony rose today because Sony & Samsung announced a joint venture to expand LCD production. Since LCD production is key to the booming HDTV market and this will increase overall sales potential for LCD HDTVs which both Sony and Samsung are very strong in...both of them are up today.

This has nothing to do with gaming. As far as what MS netted money wise for the quarter it was around 4.5 billion, while the EDD has made over 610 million in the last 9 months.

The Yahoo buy out was to try and help M$ keep it's stocks up. And the failure of Vista and the loses over the past few years of the XBOX and 360 has cost them more than it should. Then there could be something that no one knows about other than some of the high end investers that could cause their stocks to drop even more very soon.

The increase of Sony's stocks could have a lot to do with the Blu-Ray format winning over HD DVD and the cell could have something coming soon. Then the time is coming faster that ends the analog TV signals here in the US and the converter box that's being sold to convert analog to digital may not work on many older analog TV's thus increasing the sales of the newer TV's and possibly boost LCD HDTV sales.

The rest of this year could be very interesting in these markets.

Well if you put all the MS division together (Gaming division, software division, hardware division and technology division) and all the SONY divisions (Gaming division, TV division, Xplod division, SonyEriccion division, etc.) sony moves more money thanMicrosoft, its just that sony division needs more money to "stay up"

Stock price means nothing when comparing companies --- market cap is the value of the company. Sony's market cap is 45.77 billion dollars Microsoft's market cap is 277.6 billion dollars.

There is no comparison in the value of the companies what so ever MS is worth over 5 times what Sony is. There is not even a close to being a contest on who is the more valuable company.

Doesn't the OEM license state that it is only for installation and should not be used for any other purpose?

Wow, more people with zero business education talking about stocks and net worth of companies. Stocks really don't mean too much outside of public opinion. There could be a rumor of a merger, stock price will change. Whether that rumor was true or based off of anything is totally irrelevant to the stock price changing. These things rise and fall with any little tid bit of information released.

Wow @ an economist saying MS loosed 6.18% and that Sony won 5.82%. Hehe, in what contest did they win a market value increase? I gotta agree with the guy saying you're BSing

--

I actually have stocks with MS and sony as well as many others im trying to geep my money balanced out so that the crunch of the recession wont hit me hard

You know, diversification and a balanced portfolio would be not purchasing two stocks in the tech industry.
