BUY

Caller: January/2011 $35 Call. Answer: This is a pretty bullish position. He suspects this is probably trading around $1 so that would be all you are risking. LEAPs (Long Term Equity Anticipation unit) tend to be under priced relative to the associated move on the underlying stock. If you're really bullish on this, this is probably a good way to play it.

DON'T BUY

Has lost its innovative edge in the last few years. Prefers others in the technology space.

TOP PICK

Thinks it is a cheap stock. They have a bunch of products coming out over the next little while. You are going to be able to tell that they are a growth company in the next 6-8 months. Windows 7 will get a great reception. A very different company than two years ago. Everyone has this massive light on Google and no one likes this one.

BUY

(Market Call Minute.) Looks like it could go higher. Windows7 looks like an interesting product.

DON'T BUY

Not a stock they have liked nor will like for the foreseeable future. Revenue from windows 7 will not change it. It’s lost its way through lack of innovation.

TOP PICK

Very cheap story at 15X earnings. Windows7 is coming out this month and Office is coming out in the new year. Market is placing zero value on their online services.

HOLD

One of the great companies of our generation. The law of big numbers is certainly a big issue with it. They are a cash machine, but the market wants growth. No prospects for growth so multiple is dropping.

TOP PICK

Huge product cycle coming out over the next 6 month. New office product coming out in new year. Vista was a terrible product and they learned from that. Very competitive. It’s cheap.

DON'T BUY

(Market Minute) Disappointed in. They did a disappointing job in their latest acquisitions.

DON'T BUY

(Market Minute) Disappointed in. They did a disappointing job in their latest acquisitions.

DON'T BUY

Great company but not enough of a catalyst to move the stock. Still struggling to find its way and getting left further and further behind.

WATCH

Acquiring Yahoo and not having to give up a lot for it. Coming up with the launch of Windows7 in October and there is a pent-up demand for a new operating system that won't be reflected until 2010-2011. Earnings were disappointing.

TOP PICK

Nice upgrade to their product suite is coming. Changing mix a little to become more oriented to the online community. Early success of their Bing search engine may suggest a challenge to Google (GOOG-Q). Any growth in the economy over the next little while will help push this along. Looks cheap relative to the S&P.

BUY

Multinational company that has operations everywhere. Has been a dreadful stock over the last 10 years but churns out cash like anything. Triple A borrower. It is the utility on the operating systems of PCs. Coming out with a new edition which sounds quite good.

TOP PICK

Really cheap at 11X earnings. Great yield. Fantastic balance sheet. $30 billion in cash and tons of free cash flow. Windows7 is coming out and has great positive response and thinks there will be a good upgrade cycle on this. There's also a new Microsoft Office coming out in 2010.
