Shareholder Likens Steve Ballmer and Bill Gates to Bernard Madoff

Hand clicking



THIS SUBJECT is not particularly new to us, but for those who are new to it, Microsoft is quickly approaching debt [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] and those who studied the company's finances have already accused it of creating a giant pyramid scheme. We too have gathered a lot of compelling evidence over the years.

What's rather interesting today in the news is this report from an accumulation of pro-Microsoft figures in IDG, which is biased in favour of Microsoft for obvious reasons [1, 2]. It states in a reputable news site:

We'll give you a sneak peek of the third post in the series, a candid interview with an outspoken shareholder who likens Steve Ballmer and Bill Gates to fraudster Bernard Madoff.


They don't name the person, but the answer ought to arrive pretty soon. The article is mainly a reference to a group of Microsoft shareholders who are calling for Steve Ballmer to be sacked. This is far from the first such call and here is a direct reference to the latest.

If you are a Microsoft shareholder and are frustrated with Mr. Ballmer and Microsoft's poor performance, we are seeking your support. Shareholders through activism have the ability to effect change. Now is the time to effect change at Microsoft.


Given the earlier exit of yet another Vice President from Microsoft, what might we see next? Ballmer is almost the last man standing among the old chiefs, many of whom left, specially quite recently [1, 2] as the economy -- not just Microsoft -- declines due to greed and fraud.
