There have been so many tales told about the so-called speculations of the Standard Oil Company that I may say a word about that subject. This company is interested only in oil products and such manufacturing affairs as are legitimately connected therewith. It has plants for the making of barrels and tanks; and building pumps for pumping oil; it owns vessels for carrying oil, tank-cars, pipes for transporting oil, etc., etc.--but it is not concerned in speculative interests. The oil business itself is speculative enough, and its successful administration requires a firm hand and a cool head.

白话
外界传了很多标准石油公司搞投机的故事,洛克菲勒澄清:公司只做石油及相关制造,比如造油桶、油罐、抽油泵,拥有运油的船、油罐车和管道,但不碰投机生意。他说石油生意本身就够投机了,成功经营需要坚定的手腕和冷静的头脑。这背后的取舍是:把精力集中在主业和必要的配套上,不靠金融投机赚快钱。对今天的企业来说,这意味着别让副业和投机分散注意力,先把主业做扎实。
