98% of Costco shareholders voted against a proposal to end its DEI initiatives, “The fact that 98% of investors voted against the proposal shows that almost all investors are not buying what the anti-ESG and anti-DEI organizations are selling.” Jamie Dimon and JPMorgan did the same. There’s been lots of press about companies jumping to appease the Trump admin. It’s not everyone. Companies like Costco and JPMorgan will have access to more top talent.

@gedeonm I agree. The principles are core to Apple’s identity. Even from a cynical all-about-money perspective, doing a 180° would alienate lots of customers. Not the sort of thing people will forget either.

@bretcarmichael @gedeonm Lemme guess, the 2% in favor was the Conservative Policy Whatever Center that’s been buying stock to get in shareholder meetings to push anti-DEI policies?
