Wall Street moves on red tape as IPO exodus continues

TyraTech, a maker of environmentally friendly pesticides, became the
latest American company to float in London yesterday as growing concerns
about the IPO drain from New York to the City prompted the formation of
a heavyweight Wall Street panel.

As my father used to say "don't let the door hit you in the ass
on the way out."

If an American company can't or won't keep honest books then they
are free to more somewhere else. They would however do well to
remember that in many other countries such as China, if you are
caught stir-frying the books, they stand you up against a wall
and shoot you, bill your estate for the ammunition, and
confiscate the estates remaining assets.

The mere spot they stand on
does not constitute so strong an attachment
