- RE: Wall Street: Too much sway over the tech sector?
- Capitalism 101; the reason there are shareholders. Do any of you get what a shareholder is? S/he is an owner of the company. The reason companies go public is because they need money from SHAREHOLDERS! Without investors, companies don't grow. Realize that WALL STREET as you've referred to it is made up of Traders (short term buyer/sellers), Investors (folks who buy stock so they make money as the company grows, and ANALysts (guys who decide how well the company should be doing). Traders do screw things up, not only for the company, but for investors as well. ANALysts seem to have the power of life and death over a companies future. God help you if you don't meet expectations. Bottom line - investors do expect to make money by putting their money where their mouth is. Without investors, there are no employees, no products, and therefore no customers. Remember babies and bathwater, and which goes out.
