How is MSFT doing against the DOW with Balmer in charge

I have blogged a few times about Microsoft is doing against the rest of the DOW since Steve Balmer became the CEO.  Since today was the day that the recession was agreed upon I thought I would pull the data on how Microsoft is doing (the answer is not tha well).  Note that I include Bank of America, Chevron, and Kraft which were added in the last year or so to the DOW and International Paper and Kodak which were members when Microsoft was added to the DOW.
