He temporarily increased MS share price tenfold, at the cost of jeapordizing the long term viability of the company.

In 10 years we may well look back at Nadela as the "the man who killed Microsoft" or at least "the man who destroyed Microsoft's position as a top 10 tech firm", and shareholders wont be too happy.

Well, this is a good example of "Shareholder value != customer value".

Same guy who touted Microsoft's progress on climate goals, then went all-in on AI.

Pretty much all of the major tech stocks have risen by 10x since 2014.

> I'm no MS lover, but this is the same guy that increased the MS share price tenfold.

How does that improve things for customers? This ridiculous affinity for increasing the stock price at the expense of all else is why so many tech products are degrading. Google, MS, Apple, etc.

Pretty much all tech stock has 10xed over the past decade. However, the fact that this is being used to justify anything is a problem. The financialized economy has become so powerful that it can treat the real economy with impunity.

If there are no consequences to prioritizing shareholder value at the expense of product utility or ecosystem value, then we are going to get less value from the products that we purchase over time.

This is why the economy doesn't work anymore. We've been swimming in toxic waters for so long that we think it is completely normal to prioritize shareholder value at the expense of everything else; greed is good.

Finish your thought. MS share price tenfold - what do you conclude from what? What did you want to say?

Is it a software and infrastructure company or an investment scam?
