Huff led us off a cliff, and many shareholders (including myself) were suckered into his leadership. I thought he knew what he was doing. I thought we were close to achieving stratospheric flight. I thought the Russian deal was for real.
Boy, was I wrong! (Is my face red -- how embarrassing?)
Now we've got a Harvard business graduate who has never run a company in the aerospace/defense industry asking shareholders once again to trust him. I think I've seen this movie before.
Trunk, I think your views mirror many of the views of your fellow shareholders. However, there is still a disturbingly high number that will still go along with whatever the CEO wants to do. It's almost scary how much it reminds me of the Huff days. It's déjà vu all over again -- shareholders mindlessly following the CEO over the cliff like lemmings.
Under Huff's leadership, the share price plunged and went into the toilet. Under Estrella's leadership, the share price plunged and went into the toilet. They may have used different techniques to achieve this share price Armageddon, but the results are the same.
Unfortunately, it looks like I may have gone over the cliff again. But at least this time I was kicking and screaming on the way over.
