敌意收购大师卡尔•伊坎妙语录

Stephen Gandel 2013-01-30
卡尔•伊坎是华尔街著名的激进投资人和恶意收购高手,人送外号“企业狩猎者”。他不仅热衷于阻击公司,也喜欢打嘴仗,这些年来留下了不少让人津津乐道的妙语。

    2)1998年谈到另一位企业狙击手罗恩•佩雷尔曼和漫画公司漫威(Marvel)的争端时,伊坎说:“他就像个水管工,你借钱给他,让他的事业起步;接下来他会到你这里来,弄坏你的房子,然后再告诉你,他想要你的房子,但他一个子儿也不想掏。”

    3)2006年评价时代华纳(Time Warner):“伟大的传媒公司需要远见卓识的领导者,而不是把总部设在哥伦布环岛,只会放马后炮。”【全面披露:《财富》杂志(Fortune )为时代华纳所有,而且仍设在时代华纳的洛克菲勒中心办公室内。】

    4)解释2008年美国经济陷入困境的主要原因时将雅虎(Yahoo)董事会及首席执行官作为典型:“我早就习惯于国内许多董事会和首席执行官的效率以及由此造成的美国公司缺乏竞争力的局面……但杨致远和雅虎董事会还是让我感到吃惊……”

    5)关于阿克曼:“比尔,你把我称为伟大的投资人,对此我表示感谢。不幸的是,我不能这么称呼你。”(财富中文网)

    2) Talking about fellow corporate raider Ron Perelman during the fight over comic book creator Marvel in 1998: "He was like a plumber you loan money to get him started in business; then he comes in, wrecks your house, then tells you he wants the house for nothing.''

    3) On Time Warner (TWX) in 2006: "A great company in the media business needs visionary leaders, not a conglomerate structure headquartered in Columbus Circle that second guesses." (Full disclosure: Fortune is owned by Time Warner, and is still located in the company's Rockefeller Center offices.)

    4) Highlighting the board and CEO of Yahoo (YHOO) as an example of the main reason why the U.S. economy is broken in 2008: "I have long been cynical about the effectiveness of many of the boards and CEOs in this country and as a result the inability of our companies to compete . . . yet even I am amazed [by] Jerry Yang and the Yahoo board . . . ."

    5) On Ackman: "I appreciate, Bill, that you called me a great investor. I thank you for that. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for you."
