I have read about Superman being able to move planets and that is not something I see Thor doing any given day of the week.
In the Superman/FF crossover Superman was hit by a beam so powerful it could cut through adamantium but Superman never even frowned when the beam hit him.
If it would have been Thor being hit by that beam I do not know if the outcome would have been the same.
As strong and mighty Thor undoubtedly is, I just do not feel he is as powerful or fast as Superman is.
Perhaps a Rune Thor could wipe the floor with the man of Steel but I am afraid the normal, regular Thor will be swept off his feet by Kal-El.
After all, what good is Mjolnir going to do when Superman is too fast to be hit by it?
And what could is a tornado or lightning bolt going to do against the strongest hero of the DC Universe?
I think this a battle whih Thor cannot win but there is no shame in that when you go up against Superman.

You must not have read Supes in a while. Two things you must consider.
1.) Planet pushing feats are not a test of strength but rather levitation and controling gravitational forces of keeping the planet in place without it breaking apart. In the past, DC writers ignored this part of physics and just said Supes had the strength to push a planet but when they looked at it from a more believable point they had to revise this. Basically a man's hands cannot support the weight of an entire planet, it would collapse around his hands, at best Supes would just push right through the planet to the other side. Think of a safty pin trying to support a watermelon. The pin is sturdy enough to carry the weight but it will push through everytime. DC retconned this that Supes uses his mind via levitation to pull this off.
2.) I read the strory where Supes was hit by a beam that could cut thru adamantium and Superman took it with no sweat. If your read the story you will find out that the metal it was cutting was secondary admantium that has been thrashed but Hulk, Thor and even Wonder Man. Thor has even snapped a binder made of this stuff with his bare hands.
3.) Superman rouges can tag Supes and I'm sure Thor will tag will as well. Thor and Supes are in roughly the same strength.
