re: SSL - Sasol stock. Good long-term hold or not?
Posted by DiamondDog on 5/21/24 at 7:01 pm
Held this stock for a while but it's a loser IMO. In a holding pattern due to production issues but its known they have bad management. Had key exec officers tender resignations recently. Musical chairs on board of directors. If that gives you confidence, have at it.
I'd buy if it hits less than ...

That's nearly impossible. I've never seen one guy in their early 30s in a regional/global role beyond corporate office. Most of those guys are Sr. Managers and 40ish at absolute best.

I'm having to put in my time in lower management waste land. Closest thing to crabs in a bucket I've ever experienced.
I'm getting my 3-5 years in and making the requisite jump.
I can definitely see how people get stuck at this level. This is the level where fiefdoms are built as long as you ...

I'm 38. Been part of a few Fortune 100 companies in my career. Some people are true leaders- they make it seem pretty cut and dry; others I can't really figure out how they got to the executive positions.
One guy the long term employees called Mr. Upside Down because every time a public facing pr...
