Prof. Scott Galloway discusses PayPal's separation from eBay

Excerpt from Bloomberg -- "[PayPal] has been the crown jewel. This is what CEOs like. They like to be diversified with a number of assets in case one property underperforms, but here's the deal. Investors don't need CEOs to diversify for them. They can diversify on their own. They need to be accountable for one business with one core mission and one core brand and let the best assets go out on the marketplace and get the shareholder return they deserve. The biggest winners here are Icahn because he's going to do a victory lap, and not only that, the people who work specifically on PayPal who will now get options on PayPal stock."
