but chances for future growth
I find it thoroughly creepy that we define success through growth in a finite world. If a company isn't growing, it's "done".
I realize that isn't quite what you mean, but then you shouldn't write it. The mindset is actively destructive.
- confluence 14y agoSorry but I'm an investor. Companies need to grow my investment above 11% a year to be worth extra volatility/liquidity/market risks. Mature companies are like bonds - I don't invest in them because they don't generate enough capital in return for the risks taken.
- dmpk2k 14y agoFrom an individual perspective that makes sense. That does not change what I said, however. This is old and beaten ground though, which you are no doubt familiar with. I'll refrain from treading it again.
