Investors beleive the company is falling in line with future trends set by things like #metoo.

Current cosumers just dont like the commercial but probably still buy the products.

Possibly?

i wonder why

Because much like Nike, this was an elaborate plan to get the newest of retail to short DOW stocks

Look at Nike. They get a short term SJW pop but in 1 year this stock will be down, specifically Gillette.

Gillette is gonna lose 10% to 20% of their customers overnight.

[Anonymous No.12531551]

brainlet MAGA hatters unintentionally give Gillette all the views, social media interactions, and attention that P&G would NEVER have gotten with any other sort of ad by baiting them using some weak racial undertone pro-feminist bait

Nike did the same thing. Liberals take the bait "NOW IM GONNA GO BUY MORE OF (x corporation)'S STUFF BECAUSE THEY SIGNAL THE SAME VIRTUES AS ME!!!!!" while conservatives take the bait "I'M GONNA TWEET ABOUT GILLETTE 20 TIMES BECAUSE I HATE THEM NOW!!"

Americans are fucking brainlets and led around like sheep. I can say with 100% certainty that P&G (just like NIKE) doesn't give a flying FUCK about whatever is in the ad, their marketing department probably guaranteed them huge numbers and attention around the ad and they said "fuck yeah, pull the trigger"

holy fuck that's brilliant. Using the "social justice" meme to push stock prices upwards is seriously one of the most morally corrupt things I've seen in capitalism, completely takes advantage of the current absolutely fucking retarded American zeitgeist

It's like most of you retards can math. The left does not even have the money to make a stock jump like that. It's manipulated data to make you dumb goys think they were successful and it works.

Because the razors they sell for twice the price because they are pink are selling much more. Men dont care much for hygiene products and will mostly go for whats affordable, Gillette is tossing their old market under the bus to mass advertise to new customers who will pay more for the same crap colored pink.

[Anonymous No.12531668]

>>12531625

Exactly.

I got in a huge debate with someone recently about this. Of course something like this will get a short spike from liberal purchasing and liberal stock buying, but the reality is most spending money out there is conservative money. And we're in a more divided time than ever.

All Nike and Gillette did was piss off a LOT of buyers over the age of 40. So when they go to the store they'll go "oh right these people acted like fags I'm not gonna buy their product".

Nike was the blueprint and Gillette will follow the same trend.

I don't see how it's necessarily only American, as opposed to the West in general. I (German) received a health care insurance company magazine lobbying against "body-shaming," suggesting that it's okay to be obese, by proposing the straw-man that it's all about beauty and not at all about health. Yes, that's right. A health care insurance company encourages people to stay obese and develop health problems. Mind-blowing times we live in. I'm just waiting for health care companies to start handing out BigMac gift cards in the name of "Social Justice."

I don't understand the point behind gender neutrality. The same with other shit like wanting the one global uberlanguage. Simply because it goes against the sentiment of combined arms and every country which keeps up specialization is going to crush you. It's also why the promotion of race-mixing in particular is retarded AF. You can't do everything at once. Why wouldn't you want a partner that compliments you instead of some gender-neutral redundant hipster?

Just thought I’d chime in and say I’m still using my Gillette because it shaves well. I don’t give a fuck that some faggots at their marketing department made a shit ad.

Amazes me how many boomers are like “I will not buy their razors after 20 years” because of some ad..like they’re important or something.

The ad was in Q1 2019. The revenue was from 2018. Any effect the ad had wont be known until March.

Really it’s a tiny minority of people who dislike the ad. It’s just that some faggots live in an echo chamber where they are protected from the knowledge that almost nobody in the entire world agrees with their idiot philosophy. The funny thing is that these weirdos are so mentally underdeveloped and autistic they they literally can’t comprehend that nobody in the entire world agrees with them except for other mentally delayed autists.

Pretty much this. Make "controversy," fags on here and elsewhere get up in arms about it and sell their PG stock. It's now oversold and they beat earnings. So easy to manipulate people based on their political ideologies.

Men make up the majority of YouTube views, women make up the majority of consumption, especially of household goods. It's pretty simple once you think about it in terms of demographics. Gillette (and therefore P&G) didn't care about pissing off bunch of men, even considering that their user base is predominantly male, because they knew it would still likely appeal to a majority of those who actually purchase their products, as well as garnering enough press to attract new consumers who support the message expressed in their advertisement (especially considering how it was favorably communicated by most news outlets).
