Since by law they are beholden to their shareholders, some philanthropic trusts, pension funds, and other institutional investors have used shareholder advocacy to press for changes in corporate policy. But individual investors have largely been silent, thinking themselves powerless.

Thor is tired of Loki's tricks. The God of Thunder has never paid attention to the doings of mortals, but in this modern age, the idea of "therapy" intrigues him.
