Making sure the bottom line is as big a positive number as possible isn’t political.

  Of course it is, when you have freedom to direct your investment efforts, and make decisions on which class of investments are even investable. Decisions are made on the estimations before the bottom line is realized. And reevaluating counterfactual outcomes from investing in something else is also not a quantitative decision, but one that is highly subjective.

    If the company is public, they will go where the money is. The near random bunch of people that make up the shareholders won’t have any political leanings as a collective. They will care about one thing only, maximising profit.
