From badminton players be disqualified from the start
Sports personality in order to win with athletes and at some stage is not willing to try to case. Swimming and track and field athletes may slow down their own pace. Tennis star trailing in May give up inning to save energy. To participate in the tournament team understand, they in the first several rounds of achievements will determine their next round and which team met. In fact, sports enthusiasts often intentionally don’t try to see athletes.
So, for four to badminton players in the London games “not to try to win the game” antipathy, is stupid and not consistent. This problem is far beyond the sport. For example, if the few to China, South Korea and Indonesia badminton players is the enterprise, they will be admired, because they in order to achieve more long-term success and give up short-term gain. Last week, John kay research conclusion, “according to the British market short-termism is a fundamental problem”.
But, if the shareholder and the audience, easy to differ and confused before and after. People often according to the quarterly performance to judge the chief executives. Investors often lack patience. For example, by selling Facebook, and, to some extent, is because the company in order to create sustainable business and increase the capital expenditure dynamics, a quarter, its capital spending to sales ratio reached 35%. To increase the short-term profits, Mark, zack’s (Mark Zuckerberg) can cut capital spending.
However, this argument is the issue, long-term socialist may not like some people boast so wise. Sovereign wealth funds of endless long-term vision, can lead to distorted market investment, mortal can’t normal operation. For example, Qatar holdings (Qatar Holding) is to jia can can (Glencore) and mineral business of super (Xstrata) of the mergers make trouble, and do not seem to mind himself in the Barclays bank (Barclays) and red letters (Credit Suisse) investment almost lose everything.
World Badminton Federation (Badminton World Federation) should not cancel those who want to win gold athlete’s qualification. Investors in the victory means that the question of what, the need to make more balanced assessment.
