Boeing, one of the most innovative and amazing companies on earth destroyed by investment bankers.

The search for excellence got diluted by the search for profit. Something is wrong. Companies should grow on their own merits, not on the merits of the stock market.

Investment banking is destroying amazing companies and rotting the free market.

So sad
