Nasty Business Emails II

Earlier this month I wrote about a nasty email exchange involving Alan Lewis, a European money manager, and Daniel Loeb, a hedge fund manager here in the United States. Following in the same vein is an exchange between Business Week journalist Timothy Mullaney and Patrick Byrne, CEO of Overstock.com:

Mullaney's hard-nosed questions are treated with a fair amount of snark and withering responses from Byrne. It's a very, erm, interesting exchange that says a lot about behind-the-scenes Wall Street dealings.mortgage calculator

This is easily the best part:

Since I think "EBITDA" is the stupidest thing I ever heard emanate from Wall Street (no small feat), I don't begin to know how to answer. I suppose I could go and recast all my numbers into EBITDA (or for that matter, "pro forma") but I think I'll do something more valuable with my time, like alphabetize my CD's by, "Name of drummer."


I love this guy!
