If Microsoft needed to raise $250 Million in one of the capital markets...?

, which one will it be better stock or bonds?

Better for whom, Microsoft or investors?

From an investmant point of view - you probably know what you will get from a microsoft bond. There would obviously be very low risk of default - probably not much rate of return either.

As for stock, Microsoft releasing $250 Million more in stock shares can't do much for the price of the stock already out there. Make your own value judgement based on theeir financials.

from microsoft perspective, they probably would be better off not diluting stock shares. With their rock solid financials I would probably just releases a bond issue, though I can't guess why they would ahve to raise money.

that would be hard to determine without knowing the objective. obviously MSFT does not need the capital markets for anything. last i recall was that 30 billion in cash or more.
stock sale is giving up equity, bonds are like getting a loan as long as they are not convertible into stock.
