I'm honestly glad this is one CEO who's not figuratively sucking the Wall Street c. I know* he's expected to do that for the good of Capitalism and all that junk, but, honestly, is pleasing a bunch of, basically, very-overpaid gamblers what we should strive for, as a society, as a culture, as a country?
What about happiness? Less stress? Not hating the 8-10 hours a day you spend of your life working? Why is funneling money up the chain to those that already have more than any human could possibly know what to do with, such a great thing ???
Yes yes. I know. I have a 401k too. We're all in on this, but I'm glad that somewhere, someone, decided to take one for the team, so to speak, and made a few dozen people happy. Just because he could. And if that pissed off a bunch of "investors" because the shares dropped from $82.52 to $81.88, I'm ok with that.
