IT'S GREED!
All publically held companies will do exactly what
Wall Street tells them to. Even if it doesn't make
sense.

i.e. AT&T split into three companies when Michael
Armstrong was the CEO. They ended up buying their
wireless company again for the second time.
All because of Wall Street.

How stupid was that?
