When word is out that Microsoft stock is on the rise, most people go out and buy more Microsoft stock, which in turn causes the price to rise. When its rising, its in demand and the price will go up. We are creating the rise, hence the self-fulfilling prophecy. Apply this to any other demanded product and supply and demand will take effect. Creating and fulfilling its own prophecy.
If in 1976 you could buy 5000 shares of what is now Microsoft stock, it would be worth the same as 5000 shares of Microsoft that was purchased today - no matter when you bought it, it would be 5000 x today's stock price of Microsoft (you would probably pay more today). You probably want to know how rich you would be today if you had purchased 5000 shares of Microsoft stock in 1976. That would take some research because the shares of Microsoft stock available in 1976 are probably not the same as what is available today (because of splits and other events that could have occurred).
In today's ever changing market, the price of stock changes from minute to minute when the stock exchange is open.
