Oh so then shareholders do not care about quarterly dividends and constant growth forever? Publicly owned companies are all inherently sick.

- astrange 6y agoShareholders demonstratably don’t care about dividends since many large companies like Amazon/Uber don’t have any, aren’t even ever going to be profitable, but just have a really cool story. But theoretically shareholders don’t care about these things as long as the company will grow a lot in the next 30 years. There are some alternative stock markets set up to encourage this. And stockholders hardly exercise their powers. CEOs tend to not get fired.
