Discussion
20 comments analyzed.
Concerns raised: Methodology only measures shareholder returns, not societal benefit, Doesn't account for wealth destruction from competition or monopolistic practices, Excludes pre-IPO investor returns and non-billionaire wealth creators, Fails to attribute value created by employees and scientists, Unrealized gains shouldn't count as wealth creation
Feature requests: Include jobs created as metric, Measure societal impact instead of shareholder value, Allocate wealth destruction from companies that underperform
