Ford CEO Alan Mulally has officially said that he will not be leaving Ford to join Microsoft as it’s new CEO after Ballmer takes his leave. Ford stock is up with the announcement and Microsoft stock is down, as the list keeps getting smaller with no successor to the CEO crown being named yet and Ballmers days getting shorter in number.
"I would like to end the Microsoft speculation because I have no other plans to do anything other than serve Ford," Mulally told The Associated Press in an interview.
