aircraft..........

I showed you a quote from a very respected firm that specialises in the placement of CEO's.It's obvious that they would have a better idea than you of what constitutes a good CEO.

If you were about to buy a used car, would you allow your valuation of the car to be influenced by the appeals and statements of the dealer? Yes, but only to a very small extent. You would primarily be using performance measures, history, records, etc to form your valuation. The share market is no different to you in that respect.
If you walk into any used car yard ,the prices in that yard are set by the dealer.If they are too high then he won't sell any cars will he?

You are implying MJ, GD and co. have the greatest impact but that is not true.
I made no such implication regarding anyone in particular.That is an assumption on your part.

I said that the market is interpreted and influenced by Perception and Information.Now where do you think the greatest source of information regarding the past,present and future peformance of the company that creates the perception will come from?

Who has that data?

I asked aircraft.....
.why then would they recommend to shareholders that they sell their shares for less than they (the board) believed they were worth.
This referred to any board anywhere and aircraft replied.....

Because the board knows that their opinion of the value is completely irrelevent
Absolute rubbish aircraft......Who do investors and shareholders listen to if not the board?.......

It's apparent that you would not make a very good used car dealer or even a used car buyer so I would forget that analogy if I were you......
