Should you buy the stocks of companies that have visionary CEOs? Or is it too risky?

What’s the Definition of a Visionary?

First, it would be helpful to define what a visionary is:

  • A person thinking or planning the future with imagination or wisdom.
  • One who sees.
  • One who is ahead of their time.
  • Often, the ideas espoused by a visionary aren’t appreciated or accepted.

    That’s where the “risk” comes in for investors.

    Even Steve Jobs, long considered one of technology’s greatest visionaries, was fired from Apple before he came back to lead his company to new product greatness through the iPod, the iPad and the iPhone.

    Who are today’s visionaries?
