Microsoft Corp. today announced that its board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.36 per share, reflecting a five cent increase, or 16.1 percent, over the previous quarter’s dividend. The dividend is payable December 10, 2015 to shareholders of record on November 19, 2015. The ex-dividend date will be November 17, 2015.
 
Meanwhile apple has announce no payouts, ever. You want to make money on our company? Sell our stock.

Still i wonder what the real return is on MS vs Apple over the last 3-5 years.

90% growth vs 300% growth...Apple is pretty clear winner even with dividends involved.
 
Eh its pretty rocky depending on when you cherry pick your starting point.

If you invested in sep 2012 you have not made any real money on apple (10% fluctuation)
If you invested sep 2011 you doubled your investment.

On the MS side, stock is up 50% from sep 2012 or not quite doubled since sep 2011.
