I like this comment the best:

Both companies are victims of Wall Street's growth obsession. Growth companies, historically, have been risky investments with stories for sale.

I liken it to the obsessive growth Walls Street wants.  Not all companies are in growth markets.  An example would be toilet paper.  There are only so many butts to wipe and you are not going to see explosive growth in sales.

The obsessive growth Wall Street wants is a cancer in American business.

Maybe Harley should offer a free LiveWire to anyone purchasing a new gas HD?   Or offer a free gas HD to anybody purchasing a new LiveWire?    :nixweiss:

Instead of a color matched gas tank wall hanger as a   Christmas  Winter Holiday gift in December?   :nixweiss:  Might meet their sales quota on LiveWire with an offer like that.
