So, you think the small investor in a multinational has some actual
say in how the company is run and the ethics involved? It's only
recently that CEO pay has been on the table as needing non-binding
approval of the stockholders!


It doesn't really matter how much or how little say you have. If the
company is doing well, you share in the gains just like all of the
other owners. If it's not doing well you vote with your telephone and
sell the stock. Essentially you just fired the management.


The last six months have been very good to me. I have an unrealized gain
in one company of about 45%.
