    Not quite sure my post on psychopathic tendencies of CEOs was removed as unsubstantiated.

    Here is evidence that this is a very common trait in CEOs:

    If you sell all your shares in a company that you have just become CEO of because your personal financial situation is more important than the thousands of shareholders you represent, then that can be considered a psychopathic act.

    I was trying to point out that may also be a good trait if the CEO is incentivised to grow EPS as their primary target as they will have no trouble making unpopular decisions to meet those objectives. A good thing for long term shareholders.

    I think the big funds understand (or at least accept this). Retail holders sitting on 10% losses from a week ago may not have the same insight or are letting their emotions bias their decision making.
