There was another interesting techno stock in this article and it was Microsoft (MSFT). Similar to INTC, MSFT hasn’t provided much to its shareholders in terms of appreciation over the past 10 years (-6.08% for MSFT vs + 1.82% for INTC:       However, since MSFT started paying its dividend in 2003, it has been consistently increasing …
