You’re completely right. The end goal of a company should be to provide some sort of dividend to the people that own the company. I understand if the company is new and still straddling R&D debt or getting market share. If the goal is to never provide dividends, the game is to pass the buck to another investor.
- afiori 3y agoI actually believe that a company can and should have drives other than making money for the shareholders. I would prefer if more companies had objectives like "make quality products affordable" or "cultivate and respect customer goodwill". From this point of view I can imagine that some people bought Tesla stocks because they just want to help the company and I see no problem with that.
