Kicking and scratching all the way if you remember.

Of course management quality is not quantifiable except by profit, and even then its questionable.

There are those who still curse Gil Amelio and those like me who think he acquired a bad rap sheet, despite doing the awful work of firing the inefficient and bringing back Jobs.

And during Jobs' management the stock went sideways several years. Most of the general public thought Jobs was incompetent because he looked more long range rather than quarterly bottom lines.

In any case, huge amounts of profit are the right way to make a stock price higher, not manipulation of stock price with doo dads, knick knacks, gee gaws or ding dongs. There is money to be made either way but I'm not one of these people who get their kicks from adrenaline riding a motorcycle 100mph.
