> Most stock holders have figured out that long term profits are important as well. Companies that only focus short term go out of business quickly and so are worth less than companies who will be around longer.

Doesn't matter if the stock holders who pushed for the decisions managed to flip their stocks when they were still rising in value. Aren't most stock holders playing this game to flip stocks, without caring much about the particular company they're making money off?
