Microsoft (MSFT) is trading down 15 cents at $55.70 after Analyst Rich Scocozza at Raymond James downgraded the software giant's stock to "market perform" from "outperform," given the stock has appreciated above his $55 price target. Scocozza believes further upside may be limited by pressure on Microsoft's earnings outlook, which may be pressured by a continued tough information technology spending environment, slow PC sales growth and the lack of major new product releases.
