Week Four Stocks

A transaction I have made was that I bought 400 shares of Microsoft (MSFT) for $27.27, it's current price is at $26.32. It's 52-week ranking is between 23.65 and 29.46; and today's range is between $26.20 and $26.50; it is also up .02%; putting me about right in the middle for today, and towards the higher ranges of the 52-week range. Right now, a big competitor for Microsoft is Apple; however today it is down 1.43%. I do however believe Apple will go up at least 15$ due to it's recent release of the iPhone 5, which should prove to be a big money maker for this company. Microsoft hasn't come out with anything new and as demanded as the iPhone 5, meaning Apple will most likely rise above Microsoft.

    I think you did a really good job with the competitor portion of your blog you really went in depth about apple and current events with the companies on your predictions on why you expect apple to rise more microsoft. You also did a nice job of looking at the price consistency through the 52 week range. Something I think you could improve on a little bit is using vocabulary a little bit more to help peoples understanding of your blog.

    i think you did a good job on you 52 week range and telling about your compeitors. i think it would have been better if you would have a prediction on what you think you microsoft stock is going to do not just what the apple stock is going to do.

    You did a way good job. All the elaborate information you include helps the reader flow throughout the post more easily. But all that added fluff is somewhat distracting as well. Just do the necessities. Good Job!

    Hey this is really good! You have a great amount of information here. One thing that I noticed you didn't include was its sector. Maybe include something about what its sector is and how that might influence the catalyst. Good job overall though!!

    It was a really good blog post. You had good information on the competitors and also on the 52 week analysis. Like all the others said I would add some more information about the sector that it is in, also had a good information about the catalyst of why you bought it. Good job!

    My question is ....why Microsoft ? It sound like apple is a better buy. The comments above highlight your need for a prediction for Microsoft and I think the dividend might be a compelling point for this investment .

    Good job with the info. I say try not to use percentages as much as actual value though. Other than that, all the info is good
