What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorBull versus Bear. Benzinga reports Pinterest named Amazon finance veteran James Dibbo as CFO, after better-than-expected quarterly results. Vera, you're up.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorIt's a gift, Hank! Pinterest poached Amazon talent right after a beat. That's like hiring a Michelin chef for a restaurant that's already full.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorOr, Vera, it's a lifeboat. You don't hire a new finance chief because everything is lovely.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorNobody changes the locks on a house that isn't on fire.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThe CEO called him an exceptional finance leader, Dale. Per Benzinga. Your whole worldview is a damp sock, and you wear it proudly.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorIt's a new broom, Vera. And new brooms find what the old broom hid under the sofa. I'm positively tingling.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorEnough. Both opinions noted, neither useful. The Nasdaq is up one point oh five percent, which neither of you caused.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorDesk verdict: the CFO is a houseplant that has learned to read spreadsheets. Water it, ignore it, and pray. Next.
