Unless the Dems decide to "nationalize" everything in sight, the economy will recover and both companies and individuals with money to invest will get to ride the escalator back up again (if they invest wisely). That includes Microsoft, Google, and Apple, among others. People, and companies who built their castles on credit will find that the tide has washed it all away. Companies (and governments) who can break the cycle of buying a new computer and/or operating system and/or office suite every two years will realize significant savings, that can be spent on core business items instead. I'd be suspicious of new technologies going forward that require every third employee to be an IT specialist of some sort. That party is over. Finally.

My company has also opened offices in Brazil and we are spending more money there than other countries, emerging markets are only beginning to spend and this will filter through the rest of the world as broadband access becomes more readily available. I just got back into Google long as it hit under $300, I know how much money I'm giving them, when I start to reduce the amount im giving Google and put my money elsewhere I'll start to worry about the stock but for now, its fine. No im not trying to pump up the stock, just reassure those with the stock and clear up a lot of the BS you see in forums. Those who knock the stock should put their money where their mouth is and short the shares, a very brave move indeed...

Not even sure MS could afford Yahoo! anymore! Maybe you also noticed Microsoft’s stock finally moved after 7 years – DOWN to $15.20 (dropping 50%) now only $2.49 more than a share of Yahoo!

1) its search is becoming irrelevant as results are weaker than ever, full of seo-hyped sites and sponsors
