You have to ask what is going to happen to a lot of companies when there is not a lot more money to be gotten. That changes everybody's perspective, I think.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If all you needed to do is to figure out what company is better than others, everyone would make a lot of money. But that is not the case. They keep raising the prices to the point when the odds change.
In business, every phase of things counts. Companies that just yell out a low price today to win business aren't going to make money in the long term.
If a few companies were less greedy, the people at the bottom woud have a lot more.
Too many companies are just being big for the sheer sake of it. Too many CEOs thinking bigger is better.
Usually, the biggest companies are not the most dynamic.
Generally speaking, the more money that's involved in anything, the more people are expecting and hoping that it's not going to fail.
And our size: The company this year is going to be close to $50 billion, so if that's the case and you can continue to grow that fast, I would rather put my energies to solving customer problems and growing our business than worrying about integrating and laying people off.
Twenty years ago, you might have been pessimistic and said there's no hope. But these days, some of our very biggest companies are acting remarkably cleanly. And in some cases, although not all cases, the CEOs are the driving forces behind that.
It's no surprise companies that quickly grow in value attract those who may want to also profit from the hard work of others.
The more entrepreneurs in the world that are getting their ideas financed, the more great companies there are going to be that we can all invest in.
