  • A study cited Microsoft Japan’s four-day workweek pilot, underscoring internal culture experiments but with no immediate U.S. rollout.
  • EVP Takeshi Numoto sold 1,000 shares (2.08% of his position) at an average price of $460, signaling insider profit-taking.
  • Hedge fund manager Dan Loeb trimmed his Microsoft stake in Q1, reallocating capital toward other tech names.
