I agree. Every time the pps stagnates or goes down you see a bunch of complaints about the management not doing something right. Then the stock moves up and people sing the praises of management. They go from goat to genius at the movement of the pps. Their job is not to move the pps. Their job is to increase the value of the company. The MM's job, unfortunately, is to lower the pps and they have been awarded the power to do it virtually unfettered. The only valid complaint that I see is that they (management) could have been more focused on getting audited fins. If you can move up just one level in this market you can do away with many of the shenanigans that effect the pps.
