May 21 Town Hall Recording Was Edited?

Did anyone else notice this? The session went on for about an hour. The recording is 40 minutes long.

Noticeably missing: some of Hamid's comments about corporate taxes and how to best handle the $40 billion windfall from spectrum sales, Hamid's comments about how the "rich guys" benefit from certain tax practices, and most notably, that kind of joke question about whether we'd see any part of that sale in our 401Ks (and Hamid's response that he'd have to see it in his 401K first).

Did anyone else notice this, or am I going crazy? Did they actively edit out the more tone-deaf and uncomfortable parts of that session?


PSA: you need clients to run a business

It always amazes me how cr-ppy I fiserv treats their clients. Bad pricing, strong arming negotiations because they are fortune 500 company and it’s hard deconvert , and allowing people with little regard to how they impact that client and even the economy, the slightest increase are passed down to its card holders, but sometimes the increase that Fiserv gives are really high and then question why people make drastic decisions to choose other vendors leave like if they’re the only ones that offer this service… maybe yes it’s hard to leave but once they get to leave, they are leaving. Like stop putting your profits over clients - stop putting your profits over employees and maybe and just maybe your stock will make it over $70. Should be ashamed of themselves. This is what happens when you merge with a sh-t company, place the same sh-t company leaders in high positions after the merger and wonder why it’s going to sh-t. Change your leadership.. change your culture.


Fascinating data on IBM exec insider trading will stun you millions and millions granted then sold - while layoffs RA's PIPs all hockey stick up

Absolutely fascinating data and insights into the gluttonous IBM executive insider trading going back to 1994. Many of the execs are granted tens of thousands of shares of IBM stock and then immediaely sell them for millions of dollars.

https://www.barchart.com/stocks/quotes/IBM/insider-trades?orderBy=amount&orderDir=desc

For example the guy who destroyed IBM when he came in like a king 4-1-93 G Man Gerstner sold $350,000,000 (!) in IBM stock he was awared as grants in just 3 yrs 1998-2001!!!

Perhaps someone much better with data analytics can play with this site and come back and show us to absolute greed these people have done as they cut the IBM US population by 75% +/-. STUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another example IBM Vice Chairman Gary Cohn (typical slimy Wall St guy and invisible at IBM for the last 5 yrs, 25 yrs @ Goldman Sachs) seems to have been given and then quickly sold $66,000,000 of IBM stock in 5 yrs!

And of course our beloved and humble CEO Arvind...please find a chair...he seems to have amassed (ie awarded himself) 658,000 IBM shares...At closing price of $300....that is $197,000,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
