I don't even know how to word the subject

Question:

Ok, I’m currently taking a business class and we’ve got a silly project to do.  We have to pick a company and product to market abroad.  My group wanted to market piercing jewlery in Australia.  However, our prof says it must be a publically owned company.  So, we picked something else but are quite disappointed that we can’t follow our original plan. Now the question!  Does anyone one know of (off the top of your heads, I don’t expect you to research it for me) of a company that makes piercing jewelry that’s traded on the stock exchange?  It has to be a US company.  If so, much appreciation will come.  If not, oh well!  We do something boring! Thanks! Michelle BTW no one in my group has any piercings besides me.  They just LOVED the idea.

Oh man, you have NO idea how horrible an IPO is man… Seriously barry, if you were ever thinking about it…think about this… How many people do you want to share the decision making process with?  How many thousands?  MILLIONS? You got to where you are cause you know what yer doing.  God help you if your board of directors appoints FUCKIN BERTRANG. p0ok

Anatometal is a privately owned company for a good reason (it’s not the money because I know damn well I could make a grip of cash by going public).  It’s because too many cooks in the kitchen will screw up a perfectly good meal in a heartbeat.  The only reason IPOs come up is because some dipstick needs to make a ton of money that he will spend on lavish crap that he will later regret, or to get more money into the company.  If I have it my way Anatometal will be an employee owned company (setting up 401k and profit sharing plans this week!) Please email me if you have any questions about how a business like ours is set up.  It’s really kind of fascinating to look back on the last decade.
