From yesterday's Detroit News:
Karmanos lets loose on his company, his city, his governor

quote:
Unlike his bankers over at Comerica, Karmanos, 64, doesn't buy the lament that being headquartered in Detroit hampers his software company's effort to recruit talent. Nor, he insists, does it affect a publicly traded company's almighty share price -- performance does.

Comerica wants to leave, Compuware wants to stay. Opinions?

Nice interview and great to hear Karmanos so excited about the future of the Detroit and his part of it. And a little tease about a Quicken Loans POSSIBLE move to downtown.
