June 17th, Guolanghui News - The latest data shows that Musk's $56 billion salary plan may be leading a trend in US stock companies, driving the fastest growth in executive compensation in at least 14 years. Data from ISS Corporate, a proxy advisory agency under Institutional Shareholder Services, shows that since the beginning of 2024, the median compensation of CEOs of S&P 500 component stock companies has increased by 12% year-on-year. In contrast, official data shows that US wages have increased by 4.1% year-on-year. William George, former chairman of ExxonMobil's Compensation Committee, said that Musk's victory sends a message to US corporate executives that "there are no limits here...you can earn as much as you want" - executive compensation has "gone out of control".
