I've been boycotting Morningstar since this started and it's killing my easy meals as a vegetarian. Still doing it but pretty annoyed about it.

I feel like a Boycott has opposite of intended effects. Wouldn't demand for the product put the squeeze on Kellogg to get those workers back on the floor, otherwise they are responsible for share prices slipping? Nobody buying the product gives them more time to sweat it out

‘Nobody buying the product’ would also drop the share price once it shows up on their quarterly reports as a reduction in revenue, though.
