Interesting questions you raised, but let me try to answer them.
I used FedEx as an example most of us can relate to - I don't personally know any stock fund managers, so I can't theorize on how this would be handled in that world. The point is that employee on employee violence can't be tolerated in any business setting - regardless of how much money said employee makes for the company. The company is always the priority, not the whims of a particular employee.
You're right - we don't know if the Sox took any action against Manny. They haven't made public any decision, which is a mistake. The actions Manny took against the other guy are now part of the public record, and the Sox management should at the least release a statement saying the Manny has been disciplined. They don't need to state what that is, but it would be good PR to announce that something has been done.
The reason we the fans should be aware of the actions taken is because we are the base that supports these businesses. Without us, there would be no Mannys and Red Sox. They do owe us, as fans and patrons of their product, more than they've done to this point.
