In decades past businesses were seen as short-sighted for taking
steps that would help in the immediate year but harm the
company
in later years. For example laying off a research and development
division. Stockholders would frequently demand such measures as
they didn't intend to hold the
stock next year anyway. This trend
has
continued with now quarterly reporting, with stockholders not
caring
what happens next quarter as long as the company is profitable in
the short term.
The pace of business is increasing and
challenges and opportunities are showing themselves and
disappearing faster than ever. To create strategy on a quarterly
basis is no longer short-sighted. To opportunistic individuals this
leaves
much to be desired: faster, more effective exploitation is
required. I
give you: daily reporting! It will no longer suffice to maximize
shareholder profit on a quarterly basis. What has your company
done
TODAY? Only by ensuring a steady return on a day-to-day basis will
it
be possible to keep stock prices at a peak. This new information
will
give investors a badly needed peak into the fortunes capitalism
has
to offer.
The difference between diplomacy and politics

So, this Idea is not really about a stock report (every
newspaper already has that, daily), but is actually about a
business-performance report. Okay.... |
