Dr. Richard D. Ross sent a message to Ben vanBeurden that said:
Private investors like myself and fund managers would do well to forever avoid buying shares in Royal Dutch. Unlike some small, weak companies, Shell could easily afford to maintain its dividend, but I realize that you view the shareholders as hapless peasants subject to your Lord of the Manor dictates. You should resign your post immediately. You are incompetent.
I will tell everyone I know-- and I know many smart people-- to NEVER, EVER, buy RoyalDutch stock under any circumstances. Van Beurden-- always remember that you are a loser and failure.
