w ith 8000 stocks in your portfolio i cant imagine you having time to clip shareholder letters! I think what you say might be true of many companies but not many of the ones I buy. chk ceo is a very heavy investor in his own company, for example. ceo of sil acts and talks like an engineer. ceo of plg.to is a matronly ex lawyer with mining in her blood. ceo of bsic im sure writes his own letter.
