No, Bloomberg did not say that.  Bloomberg said:

   Microsoft, the biggest software maker, has lost about $90 billion in 
   market value this year as Ballmer vacillated on Yahoo and failed to 
   show how he would crack Google Inc.'s dominance of Internet 
   advertising. Shareholders will look for ideas at a meeting with 
   Ballmer tomorrow, said Kim Caughey, a Fort Pitt Capital Group Inc. 
   analyst in Pittsburgh.

Bloomberg, unlike you and Homer, know how the stock market works, and so 
reported accurately.
