 "Investor Wants Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer To Quit")
David Einhorn, who is a hedge manager at Greenlight Capital, has asked that Steve Ballmer step down and let someone else take over the reins.

Speaking at the annual Ira Sohn Investment Research Conference, David said “Give someone else a chance. His continued presence is the biggest overhang on Microsoft’s stock". One probable reason for the comment is the current value of Microsoft stock. An investor who purchased $100,000 worth of Microsoft in 2000 would now be worth only $69,000.
Microsoft has been on a slump recently, Apple recently overtook it as the dominant technology company a few weeks ago. Even IBM has grown to strength, with its market value being higher than Microsoft for the first time in 15 years. All these factors combined, could pose a problem for Steve Ballmer. Whether this statement turns into a prophecy or act as a warning is yet to be known.
