Still looking pretty good. Before, not so much, because you had low inflation and basically no stock growth. Of course, that is likely due to Steve Ballmer being a disaster (and perhaps good luck) rather than this guy being such a genius.
It would be better to make this argument based on Microsoft's net income. Microsoft's growing net income and a steady net profit margin says more about how well the company is actually doing than a share price that could be inflated by the current hysteria surrounding everything AI.

Well, it's been 11 years of this Indian fellow, and MSFT's stock is now more than 10x what it was when he came in.
The 10 years prior, it went from about 30 USD to about 30 USD.
Is it that hard to admit facts that are inconvenient?
