Monish was at the investor conference. Last time Mike was around was for the clusterf××× executive huddle. Did I miss something? Not that he has anything worth saying but good leaders don't hide when bad things are happening

I saw a 3M publication bragging about patents. What was the last blockbuster product this company ever got from the labs?

Definitely could be considered if the stock issued is from: Apple, Berkshire Hathaway, Microsoft, JPMorgan Chase, etc. Definitely NOT any 3M stock. We want the veterans to be made whole and not issued worthless 3M shares. For those who continue... — read more
