Is Microsoft a good company worth long-term investments?

Personally, I think both Apple and Microsoft are a solid choice. Both have their pros and cons, so consider doing your research before picking one.

The case for Apple:

• Apple's smartphone sales drastically rose in the past year; the pandemic brought fast & easy iPhone sales.
• Products like the Apple Watch (with Fitness+) are a top-pick for physically active people - sales for these products have risen 30% this year
• Some Apple services like iTunes or the App Store have had significant success in the last 12 months, having a 20% rise in sales

The case for Microsoft:

• Year by year, the MSFT stock has had better growth than Apple's.
• Microsoft is becoming more focused on data centers and cloud storage
• MSFT stock is slightly more volatile

I have invested in both, but I think AAPL is better in the long run - invest a bit in both, diversification never hurts.
