The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I've never invested in them and wasn't aware of all of the controversies with them. There is a brief article covering several of them utopia.org - Crime controversy nestles biggest scandals explained

And now Nestlé investors are reportedly calling for chair Paul Bulcke to step down immediately, holding him responsible for a period of turmoil at the Swiss food giant after the exit of two chief executives in just over a year, the Financial Times reported. storyboard18.com - Nestle investors demand chair paul bulckes exit after back to back CEO ousters report

Interesting my searching came across someone who was Chairman and Managing director of Nestle India who seemed to have a good approach to leadership which doesn't seem to match what I've seen in my brief look at Nestle. He said
His message was clear: great leadership is less about power and more about people. "In a crisis, you don't run a company, you serve a family," he said, defining his leadership philosophy with unflinching clarity.

Anyhow I have no money in Nestle and I doubt I would since I don't know much about them.

Good luck
