Equity Bottom-Up

Microsoft, the world's largest software company, has almost 100,000 employees and has created more millionaires(...and a few billionaires) than most companies we can think of. The Windows operating system, Xbox game console, Office Suite, Explorer browser, and Hotmail are all household names. Their acquisitions are so aggressive that the DOJ (Dept of Justice) once tried to bust them. Through talks with my brother (a decade-long Microsoft employee) and my own readings about this incredible firm over the year, MCorp Review offers a background of one of tech's most celebrated company...and most controversial. Some issues worth exploring:<ul><li>Does Microsoft foster or stifle innovation?</li><li>How did founders and later CEOs differ in their mindset and background? What can others learn from them and the CEO race of 2014?</li><li>Is Bill Gates the source of or solution to Microsoft's problems? (HINT: 'or' might be a typo)</li></ul>

We ask the questions that need to be asked

Hong Bao Media Holdings Pte Ltd

Creative said on 30 October 2015 that its subsidiary Ziilabs has won its patent infringement lawsuit against Apple.Creative is the creator of the original PC audio card, the Sound Blaster. Its Chairman and CEO is Sim Wong Hoo, whose name is held up as the best example of a Singaporean entrepreneur. Leaders in Singapore often talk about entrepreneurship in Singapore as finding the "next Sim Wong Hoo".But the Creative of 2016 has been in decline for some time. The company is running out of time and chances to pull itself up. The company has been making losses every year since FY09, except for FY13, when it turned a small profit due to the gain on disposal of contract design company ZiiLabs.  Its revenue, at S$1.1 bln in FY06, has been falling regularly. It reported sales of just S$99.5 mln in FY14. Despite its decline, Creative has no debt and a cash pile of S$99.7 mln. But that is declining every year tooWe think it would be a waste if Creative dies a slow death. That is unless it stops what it is doing (and not working) and starts doing something very different.
