Why Microsoft Corporation Shareholders Have Nothing to Worry About

Shares of Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) rallied 30% over the past 12 months, beating the NASDAQ's 25% gain and silencing the naysayers who believed that its heyday had passed. But with the stock near historic highs, and its P/E of 33 exceeding the industry average of 31 for software infrastructure providers, investors are likely wondering if they should take profits.

I personally believe investors should keep holding Microsoft for four simple reasons: its cloud growth remains robust, it's shrewdly cutting costs, it's building app ecosystems instead of operating systems, and it's expanding into next-gen markets.
