The main problem I have with today's markets is that the short term focus, has forced companies to do things they would not do from a long term planning perspective. This seems to be a more of an American issue then a EMEA or APAC stance (though Im sure it exist there).
The stock market has become a money changing operation that often has little reference to the underling value of a corporation.
To much momentum playing going on, and the long term investor often gets burned.
Look at all the experts that preach "Buy and Hold" all the while they are buying and dump stocks like day traders. The mnarket is way too manipulated today.
