If the CEO is appearing erratic under pressure, we might investigate where it is being applied and who is applying that pressure.
> Investors are nervous because CEO appears erratic under pressure.
> Investors apply pressure in response to erratic behavior.
If an investor truly believes that he’s acting erratic under pressure, then the best response is not changing the type of pressure to societal and financial pressure.
- sokoloff 8y agoThe best response for the investor who loses confidence in the CEO of a company they’ve invested in where the CEO is personally a large part of the valuation of the company is to salvage as much value as they can and GTFO. The investor isn’t interested in what’s best for the CEO or company further than the extent to which that’s good for the investor.

Someone who owns shares in a company like this has multiple options. One option is to sell your shares and be done with it, assuming you think the problem is insurmountable. But if you remain invested, you can still do things that reduce the problem or things that exacerbate the problem. The last one seems particularly counterproductive.
