Zuck causes quite a stir in Wall Street(Comments RSS)
The Facebook CEO refuses to conform to established norms of behavior and expectations. His trademark hoodie wasn't well received by some investors during the recent road show this week. I think he should do as he pleases, and if they are not interested they should not invest.
"Michael Pachter, of the firm Wedbush Securities, resoundingly critiqued Zuckerberg’s choice of clothing to meet and greet investors ahead of Facebook’s record-breaking $77 billion to $96 billion initial public offering on the NASDAQ, which is expected imminently, though no date has been officially set.
Zuckerberg wore what’s become his signature attire, a hooded sweatshirt, or hoodie, during his presentation to investors.
In an interview with Bloomberg TV, Pachter said that: “Mark in his signature hoodie — I mean he’s actually showing investors he doesn’t care that much, he’s gonna be him and he’s gonna do what he’s always done, and I think that’s a mark of immaturity. I mean I think he has to realize he’s bringing investors in as a new constituency right now and I think he’s got to show them the respect that they deserve because he’s asking them for their money.”
