Shares of Microsoft Corporation (MSFT) have fallen almost 5 percent after 
receiving a big downgrade from analysts at Goldman Sachs. The analysts 
believe Microsoft’s compute market share is fading fast and that it must 
focus on winning over consumers instead of continuing to rely on enterprise 
customers. Unfortunately though, they don’t see any near-term catalysts for 
the company’s bottom line or its stock price.
