Taking The Street

You "took 'em." Stole from them. Bagged them. You hinted and winked and mumbled about earning $2.12 a share this quarter, so investors bid up your stock to $100 a share...but you actually printed $1.39, tanking the shares down to $50, so all those people who paid $100 last month got their investments cut in half. And they're pissed.

You took 'em. They'll remember.
