Agreed, and if you don't like how the company is being run - sell your stock.
Generally speaking, this idea we have these days that activist shareholders can come in and dictate how a company is run is insane.
- rdlecler1 8y agoSecond this motion. These shareholders are not family holding shares in a family business. If they’re not voting by selling their stock then can we really say they’re fed up?
- zaccus 8y agoIt's not insane, and it's not a new idea. That's always been a right you have as a shareholder in a public company. And you don't vote by selling your stock, you vote via proxy ballots. Which too many individual investors don't do.
- dwd 8y agoYes, you get a vote which is a simple yes/no on whatever is brought to a vote - but you don't get to say what is voted on.
