Bought MSFT today. One of my companies was acquired, which gave me some capital.
MSFT yield is above the 10-year T-note yield, and they have plently of room to increase their dividend. According to my financial statement analysis as well as the "Chowder Score," MSFT is a screaming buy for dividend growth investors. As a last comfort of safety, MSFT is amongst the best in the market on a risk premium/beta basis. I'm hoping for pemanent ownership, so I don't have any sell criteria, other than to sell if there's a dividend cut.
There's a few companies that have better prospects, but I already own them and I want to diversify into new names and new industries... So, I bought MSFT.
