Probably the single most frustrating thing to me about this forum is the complete lack of business sense that an overwhelming majority here seem to have.
There's rules to business and one of the BIGGEST rules is ~
SCARED MONEY DONT MAKE MONEY.
In other words, you have to invest before you can reap profits and this is something that can easily take a large amount of time depending on what you're investing in. So if you want to look at the financial reports then while it may appear that Sony is losing money, that money is being spent now to be made back in the future.
Kaz has been in charge of Sony for how long now? Two years? Do you think that any president could fix America within two years after the recent recession? HELL NO. Kaz has spent the past two years cleaning up the damage that's been done to Sony. This is a massive responsibility and a massive undertaking! He's trimming off fat and getting the company back in shape. It's actually pretty easy to see.
Here's a major indicator of the true state of things that nobody brings up, but it's something that I personally have been apart of. At the beginning of 2013 Sony stock prices had been around $12 when I invested $1000 to become a shareholder (this was my first trade ever btw). Within 5 months they had peaked by around $21 per share. This also happened to be the time when I sold because I needed the money but regardless, the value of their stock has trended upward since Kaz took over and it's flatlined around a $17 average since that time. A lot of you may not have faith in Kaz, but obviously the investors do otherwise we would see the stock price trending down, not up.
