The 1987 film “Wall Street” follows the adventures of junior stockbroker Bud Fox (played by Charlie Sheen) as he rises to financial fame and wealth thanks to his dealings with legendary Wall Street player Gordon Gekko (played by Michael Douglas). In one scene, Gordon Gekko is addressing the shareholders meeting of one of the companies in his portfolio. He blames the company’s management for being lazy and incompetent, thus not doing their best for their shareholders.
