多大仇？ 推特CEO辭職刺激股價大漲7%

Dick Costolo is stepping down as chief executive of Twitter, the company has announced.
推特宣佈，迪克·科斯特洛將辭去CEO職務。

The social messaging service's co-founder Jack Dorsey will take over as interim chief on 1 July and stay until a replacement can be found.
在找到替代者前，這家社交信息服務公司的聯合創始人傑克·多西將從7月1日起擔任臨時CEO。

Mr Costolo had been under pressure from investors unhappy with the firm's user growth.
投資者對推特用戶的增長感到失望，科斯特洛也因此飽受壓力。

In a statement, he said he was "tremendously proud of the Twitter team".
他在聲明中表示，他對“推特團隊倍感自豪”。

Twitter said that its board had formed a committee to undertake the task of finding a successor.
推特稱董事會已成立了一個委員會來尋找繼任者。

Following the announcement, shares in the company jumped by more than 7%.
聲明發布後，該公司股價上漲超過7%。

Twitter debuted on the New York Stock Exchange in 2013 but has not been adding users as fast as investors had hoped.
2013年，推特在紐約交易所上市，但它的用戶增長速度未能滿足投資者的期望。

In April, the firm missed Wall Street's forecasts for revenue growth and posted a net loss of $162m .
今年四月，推特未能達到華爾街對其的收入增長預期。它公佈的淨虧損達1億6200萬美元。

Its share price has declined nearly 30% since then, and is currently trading below the price it debuted at in 2013.
在那之後，推特的股價下跌將近30%，目前已經低於2013年上市時的價格。

Analysts remain pessimistic about the firm's ability to grow.
分析家們仍對公司的增長表示悲觀。

The research consultancy eMarketer estimates that Twitter's monthly user base will grow just 14.1% this year, slowing from more than 30% two years ago.
研究諮詢公司eMarketer預計今年推特的每月用戶基數將只增加14.1%，慢於比兩年的30%多。

By 2019, eMarketer says Twitter's user growth rate will be just 6% worldwide.
eMarketer還指出，到2019年以前，推特的用戶增長率將僅爲6%。

In announcing his resignation, Mr Costolo said in a statement: "I am tremendously proud of the Twitter team and all that the team has accomplished together during my six years with the company.
科斯特洛在辭職聲明中說：“我對推特團隊，以及我在公司的六年裏這支團隊共同完成的工作倍感自豪”。

On a conference call to discuss the move, he added that he had decided to go now because he felt the continued scrutiny if he remained would be a "distraction" and of "no help to the company".
在討論他辭職的電話會議中，科斯特洛表示，如果他留任，持續不斷的審視會令人分心，對公司也沒有任何幫助，因此他決定辭職。

Questioned on what the board was looking for in its next chief executive, Mr Dorsey said the search team would take as long as necessary, the candidate could come from inside or outside the company but added the one criteria they knew for sure: he or she should be a Twitter user.
在被問到董事會想找怎樣一位新CEO時，多西表示，公司會花足夠的時間去尋找，候選者可能來自公司內部或外部，但他們很清楚，有一條標準是候選者是推特用戶。

Mr Dorsey said the most important attribute was that they "really use and love the product in every single way".
多西稱，最重要的特質是“用各種方式使用和熱愛這一產品”。
