The responsibility of the CEO is not to manipulate the stock , either up or down. The job function of the CEO is to manage the business of the company . Microsoft has been up and down since this April, up to $95, then down to $76, then up to $85 , then down to $80 and Up to $100, and down to $90, nobody complain anything. But , this time, it is the CEO of Microsoft who talk down the company's stock directly together with the whole market. The issue is not how much the price was talked down by the CEO, but he was over the boundary to talk about the things he should not talk about in public as the CEO of Microsoft. That is something bothering me. I will have the same complaint even if he talked up the stock .
